    EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT Committee on Foreign Affairs Brussels, 27 July 2004 REPORT OF AD HOC DELEGATION VISITS TO KASHMIR (8-11 DECEMBER 2003 AND 20-24 JUNE 2004) Introduction As part of the European Parliament's contribution to helping shape EU policy on the Kashmir issue, the Committee on Foreign Affairs, Human Rights, Common Security and Defence Policy decided to send a delegation to both parts of Kashmir, and to the respective national capitals of Pakistan and India. The delegation's objective was to meet with a wide spectrum of political and public opinion, to learn their views on current developments and hopes for the future, and to see the situation on the ground at first- hand. For timetabling and logistical reasons, it was decided that the visit to the two sides (Islamabad and Pakistan-administered Kashmir (known as Azaad Jammu and Kashmir - AJK - on the Pakistan side) -, and to New Delhi and Jammu and Kashmir - Indian- administered Kashmir, would have to take place separately. The first visit took place from 8-11 December 2003; the second, originally planned for the spring of 2004 was delayed because of the elections which were unexpectedly called in India, and finally took place from 20-25 June 2004. It was stressed throughout the preparatory phases that the two delegation visits should be undertaken by the same Members - which, with one exception, was the case - and that the two visits should aim to follow similar programmes in order to ensure continuity and for a balanced comparison to be made. The delegation was led by John Walls Cushnahan, and in December 2003 included Bob van den Bos, David Bowe, Glyn Ford, Jas Gawronski, Reinhold Messner and Luisa Morgantini.

  • From Insurgency to Militancy to Terrorism. by Balraj Puri* in 1989, A
    BALRAJ PURI Kashmir's Journey: From insurgency to militancy to terrorism. by Balraj Puri* * Director of the Institute of Jammu and Kashmir Affairs – Karan Nagar – Jammu – India In 1989, a massive Muslim insurgency erupted in Kashmir. A number of internal and external factors were responsible for it. Among them, was the "Rajiv-Farooq" accord towards the end of 1986, by virtue of which Farooq Abdullah, dismissed from power two years earlier, was brought back to power as interim chief minister (1987) after a deal with the Congress party. By vacating his role as the principal pro-India opposition leader, Farooq left the Muslim United Front, the first party based on a religious identity, as the only outlet for popular discontent. As the assembly election of 1987 had been rigged to facilitate his return to power, the people felt that there was no democratic outlet left to vent their discontent. Externally, the break up of the Soviet block where one satellite country after the other in East Europe got independence following protest demonstrations, was also a source of inspiration for the people of Kashmir who at last believed that "azadi" (azadi in Urdu or Farsi means personal liberty. Its first political connotation among the people has become, without a doubt, representative democracy) was round the corner if they followed the East Europe example. Furthermore, not far away, as the Soviet forces had pulled out from Afghanistan, harassed and vanquished by the Taliban who had the support of USA and of Pakistan, armed and trained Mujahids involved in that struggle became available and were diverted to Kashmir to support the local insurgency.

On 8 July 2016, Burhan Wani, a 22-year-old leader of the armed group Hizbul Mujahedin, was killed by the Indian security forces. Following Wani’s death, the Kashmir Valley saw its biggest outbreak of protest and violence since 2010.

Physical Disengagement and Ideological Reorientation Among Militants in Kashmir: An Exploratory Study ABSTRACT This qualitative study employs semi-structured interviews to explore the phenomenon of militant disengagement as experienced by six former militants in Jammu and Kashmir. The paper seeks to understand how and why individuals who enthusiastically joined the militant campaign against the Indian state beginning in the late 1980s subsequently moved away – physically – from armed violence. The study also aims to shed light on the nature and extent of ideological evolution experienced by the same individuals before and/or after their physical departures from militancy. The paper attends closely to the interplay between these physical and ideological aspects of disengagement, asking – in the case of each interviewee – how one relates to the other.

  • The Prospects for State Failure in Pakistan: Ethnic, Regional, and Sectarian Fissures Summary
    The Prospects for State Failure in Pakistan: Ethnic, Regional, and Sectarian Fissures Summary for Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Session on the Future of Pakistan: Prospects of State Failure May 1, 2001 Rodney W. Jones Policy Architects International © Policy Architects international Outline 1. Key questions: What do we mean by 'state failure' in Pakistan? 2. Regional or ethno-linguistic separatism as threats of state failure (national disintegration?) (a) Baluchi 'Nationalism' (Baluchistan) (b) Pushtoon 'Nationalism' (NWFP and FATA) (c) Sindhi 'Nationalism' (d) Muhajir (MQM) 'separatism' 3. Islamic revivalism and sectarian conflicts as threats of state failure (a) Islamic political organizations and extremist offshoots (b) Sunni-Shia sectarian conflicts 4. Scenarios and policy implications (a) national disintegration, revolutionary state overthrow, harsh indigenization (b) isolation or realistic engagement Key Questions: What do we mean by 'state failure' in Pakistan? What is meant by “state failure” as an anticipated condition in Pakistan? People seem to have quite different implicit assumptions when they throw around the idea of Pakistan as a "failed state." Those assumptions should be unpacked. Policy Architects International 2 Four and a half theoretical futures seem to be plausible to some degree: (1) National disintegration: separatist civil wars and breakup of contemporary Pakistan into two or more independent states, presumably along ethno-linguistic or regional lines. (2) Failure of Democracy: democratic institutions

  • Kashmir in Crisis – Before and After the Killing of Burhan Wani
    Kashmir in crisis – before and after the killing of Burhan Wani blogs.lse.ac.uk/southasia/2016/08/09/kashmir-in-crisis-before-and-after-the-killing-of-burhan-wani/ 2016-8-9 The killing of a senior militant commander in Kashmir a month ago sparked a series of protests across the Valley. A heavy-handed response from security forces has left scores of civilians dead, thousands injured, including hundreds at risk of blindness owing to the widespread use of pellet guns. Mark Mistry, who visited the disputed territory in May, examines the reasons behind the reactions of the people as the new Chief Minister’s reputation lies in tatters. “The Kashmiri will not accept defeat in a hurry.” – AS Dulat, former chief of India’s external intelligence agency, the Research & Analysis Wing The façade of ‘normalcy’ Hizbul Mujahideen’s Burhan Wani was an instantly recognisable face to millions of Kashmiris, resulting from his adept use of social media while alive. In death too his name will live on as the spark that fuelled the Valley’s latest bout of blood-letting. More than 50 lie dead, and thousands (members of the security forces included) have been injured in confrontations between protestors, police and the alphabet soup of Indian paramilitary and armed forces that inhabit the Vale of Kashmir in their hundreds of thousands. Before Burhan’s death, the portents weren’t good. I visited during the Durbar move in May, which marks the shift of the seat of state government from Jammu to Srinagar, the summer capital. Preparations included the dredging of Dal Lake, where weeds excavated from the waterbody were subsequently dumped on The Boulevard, the road that rings the lake’s perimeter.

Foreign Relations: General & US An essay in the Times of India was supportive of Indian diplomacy in 2000, which pushed ahead relations with Russia, the US and the PRC, but argued that there was still no thaw in India-Pakistan relations. M.D. Nalapat argued in the Times of India that India has exhibited a land-locked mentality that prevents it from appreciating the role that the Indian Navy plays in protecting the country. Nalapat further argued that India and the PRC should develop a strategic partnership to dominate the regional sea lanes, but states that the PRC's relationship with Pakistan inhibits the India-PRC relationship from developing. A second essay by Nalapat examined the prospective US administration policy under President-elect George W. Bush. A report by the US-based think-tank RAND, co-authored by Zalmay Khalilzad, stated that the US should develop a foreign policy towards India that is independent of its regional role. The report was also critical of Pakistan's role in Kashmir and Afghanistan.

  • Letter of Mirwaiz Chairman of the All Parties Hurriyat Conference
    ALL PARTIES HURRIYAT CONFERENCE Jammu & Kashmir TEL+91194 2452896 FAX+91194 250673 E-Mail: [email protected] Excellency, 23rd August 2016 As the Religious Head(Mirwaiz) of Kashmiri People and Chairman of The All Parties Hurriyat Conference, I believe that a war is being waged against us by the ‘democratic’ Indian state, in total violation of all democratic norms. The security machinery of India has embarked upon the strategy of ruthlessly crushing us and our resistance to its unprecedented brutality. There are not too many choices and options available to us. The expectation that the society remain passive or non-violent in the midst of this brutalization is unrealistic. The younger population of the state has been on the streets for the past one-and-half months, with fatal consequences. As I write to you, the present phase of the unceasing and unprecedented violence in Kashmir is over forty days old. Now a sense of extreme urgency has built up due to the inexplicable lack of response from the international community to this explosive human tragedy. Why is the international community being a mute spectator? Is it awaiting some even more massive human tragedy to unfold in Kashmir before voicing their indignation? Aren’t 69 killings in less than 40 days, with over 6,000 youngsters and children injured – mostly blinded and maimed – enough for the consciousness of the international community to be stirred? The Indian Central Reserve Police has itself admitted in court to using 1.3 million pellets in 32 days in Kashmir. The indiscriminate and heartless use of the pellet gun at point-blank range on teenagers, with devastating consequences, has elicited enough negative reactions in editorials in Indian mainstream media.
