Bu saldırılarda, Hindistan hava güçleri, 1971 yılındaki Hindistan-Pakistan savaşı sonrası Keşmir’i de facto olarak ikiye bölen Kontrol Hattını (LoC) ilk kez aşarak Pakistan topraklarına girmiş oldu. Hindistan’ın saldırıları sonrası Pakistan da Kontrol Hattı (LoC) Doç. Dr. Dilek Yiğit, Araştırmacı. 7 yakınlarındaki Hindistan askeri mevzilerine saldırmaya başladı ve Pakistan uçağı hattı aşarak Hindistan yönetimi altındaki Cemmu ve Keşmir’e girdi. Hindistan ve Pakistan’ı savaşın eşiğine getiren ve “Şubat gerilimi” olarak adlandırdığım bu karşılıklı saldırıların asıl kaynağı Keşmir sorunu muydu? Makalede, bu sorunun yanıtı, Keşmir sorununun nedenleri, Hindistan ve Pakistan’ın soruna dair tutumları, Şubat 2019’da her iki ülke arasında artan gerginliğin gerekçeleri üzerinden aranacaktır. Anahtar Sözcükler: Hindistan-Pakistan İlişkileri, Keşmir Sorunu, Kontrol Hattı (LoC), terörle mücadele. “February Stand-off” Between İndia and Pakistan Summary India launched airstrikes on Balakot in Khyber- Pakhtunkhwa district, Pakistan on February 26, 2019. These airstrikes are the first launched across the LoC (line of control) that is de facto border in Kashmir since a war between the two countries in 1971. In the aftermath of India's attacks, Pakistan responded with air strikes on military installations in Jammu and Kashmir. What is the main reason for these attacks I called “February Stand-Off” which brought India and Pakistan to the brink of war. Is it Kashmir conflict? In this article the answer to this question will be sought through analyzing the causes of Kashmir conflict, the positions of India and Pakistan on Kashmir conflict and tensions running high between them in February 2019. Keywords: Relations between India and Pakistan, Kashmir conflict, Line of Control-LoC, counter terrorism. Giriş Hindistan ve Pakistan arasındaki ilişkiler, bağımsızlıklarını kazandıkları 1947 yılından itibaren savaşlar ve çatışmalar tarafından şekillenmiş, iki ülke arasında kronikleşen 8 gerginlik zaman zaman, yaşanan saldırılar üzerinden, daha da artmıştır. Hindistan ve Pakistan arasındaki sürekli, zaman zaman yükselen gerginliğin asıl kaynağını Keşmir sorunu oluşturmaktadır. Her iki devletin üzerinde hak iddia ettiği Keşmir, tarafların nükleer güç olması nedeniyle, ABD’nin eski başkanlarından Bill Clinton’un ifadesiyle bölgeyi dünyanın en tehlikeli noktası haline getirmiştir.1 Hindistan ve Pakistan’ın savaşın eşiğine geldiğini düşündüren son gerilim ise Şubat 2019’da Hindistan hava kuvvetlerinin, Keşmir’i ayıran Kontrol Hattını (LoC) aşarak Pakistan’da Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa bölgesindeki Balakot’a saldırılar düzenlemesi ile başlamıştır. Saldırılar karşısında Pakistan da Kontrol Hattı ( LoC) yakınlarındaki Hindistan askeri mevzilerine saldırmış ve Pakistan uçağı hattı aşarak Hindistan yönetimindeki Cemmu ve Kemir’e girmiştir.2 Pakistan’ın Hindistan’ın saldırılarına hemen yanıt vermesi Pakistan’ın gerginliği tırmandırmaya hazır olduğu şeklinde okunmuştur. Şubat gerilimi olarak adlandırdığım bu karşılıklı saldırıların kaynağını, Keşmir sorununun oluşturup oluşturmadığına yanıt aramaya yönelik bu makale üç bölümden oluşmaktadır. Birinci bölümde Şubat geriliminin niteliği ve tarafların tavrı ile uluslararası toplumun bu gerilime tepkisi kısaca analiz edilecektir. İkinci bölümde Keşmir sorununun tarihsel gelişimi ve tarafların pozisyonları açıklanacaktır. Üçüncü bölümde ise Keşmir sorununun Şubat geriliminin tek kaynağı olup olmadığı, “iki devlet arasında Keşmir sorunu olmasaydı böyle bir gerilim yaşanır mıydı?” sorusu kapsamında tartışılacaktır. Şubat Gerilimi 14 Şubat 2019 tarihinde patlayıcı yüklü bir taşıt ile Hindistan yönetimindeki Keşmir bölgesindeki Pulwama’da Hindistan askerlerini hedef alan intihar saldırısı neticesinde 44 kişi hayatını kaybetmiştir.3 1 Bhat, 2015. 2 The Diplomat, 28 Şubat 2019. 3 India Today, 18 Şubat 2019. 9 Pulwama saldırısının sorumluluğunu Pakistan merkezli Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) örgütü üstlenmiştir.4 Hindistan Başbakanı Narendra Modi, saldırıyı şiddetle kınarken, hayatlarını kaybeden güvenlik personelinin fedakârlıklarının boşa gitmeyeceğini, tüm ulusun cesur şehitlerin aileleri ile omuz omuza verdiğini açıklamıştır.5 Başbakan Modi’nin bu açıklaması “saldırıyı kınama” ve “ulusal birlik” merkezli

  • Extremism and Terrorism
    Pakistan: Extremism and Terrorism On April 21, 2021, a car bomb exploded in the parking lot of the Serena Hotel in Quetta, killing at least five and wounding 11. Chinese ambassador to Pakistan Nong Rong was staying in the hotel but was not present during the attack. Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan (TTP) claimed responsibility. “It was a suicide attack in which our suicide bomber used his explosives-filled car in the hotel,” the TTP said in a text message to Reuters. (Sources: Reuters, Associated Press) On April 12, 2021, police in Lahore arrested Saad Rizvi, leader of the outlawed Islamist political party Tehreek-e-Labaik Pakistan (TLP). The arrest was reportedly to deter TLP supporters from further demanding the expulsion of France’s ambassador over the publication in France of cartoons featuring Islam’s Prophet Muhammad. Rizvi had claimed the government had reached an agreement with his party to expel the ambassador by April 20, while government officials claimed they agreed only to discuss the issue in parliament. In response to Rizvi’s arrest, TLP supporters blocked highways and clash with police across the country over the course of two days, killing at least four people and wounding dozens of others, including at least 60 police officers. On April 18, TLP supporters attacked a police station in Lahore while rallying in the city against Rizvi’s arrest. The protesters took hostage 11 officers. The protesters released the hostages the following day after negotiations with the government. Photos released of the hostages during the negotiations showed they had been tortured. (Sources: Voice of America, Associated Press) Overview Since its independence from British colonial rule in 1947, Pakistan has been divided along ethnic, religious, and sectarian lines, a condition which has been exploited by internal and external organizations to foster extremism and terrorism.

  • A Study of Kashmir As Portrayed Through Popular Indian Cinema
    The valley of desire : A study of Kashmir as portrayed through popular Indian cinema by Maliha Siddiqi M.A. (Mass communication), Jamia Millia Islamia, 2018 B.Sc., Kashmir University, 2016 Extended Essay Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the School of Communication(Dual degree program in Global Communication) Faculty of communication, art and technology © Maliha Siddiqi 2020 SIMON FRASER UNIVERSITY Summer 2020 Copyright in this work rests with the author. Please ensure that any reproduction or re-use is done in accordance with the relevant national copyright legislation. Approval Name: Maliha Siddiqi Degree: Master of Arts Title: “The valley of desire”: A study of Kashmir as portrayed through popular Indian cinema Zoë Druick Senior Supervisor Professor Katherine Reilly Program director Associate Professor Date Defended/Approved: 31st August 2020 ii Abstract Indian-administered Kashmir has been a conflicted territory since 1947. This paper studies the representation of Kashmir and its civilian population in popular Hindi films. As Bollywood has an immensely dedicated audience, both in India as well as globally, the sensitive issues surrounding Kashmir make for extremely sought-after and therefore potentially influential content in films. I argue that these films reflect a sharp bias and a myopic approach towards showcasing the area and its civilian population. This paper employs the use of film analysis and critical discourse analysis to examine seven films — Mission Kashmir (2000), Yahaan (2005),Fanaa (2006), I am (2010), Lamhaa (2010), Haider (2014) and Hamid (2018) — to support the argument. The results show that all the films except Haider and Hamid misrepresent or underrepresent the realities of Kashmir.

  • Kashmir: the Major Source of Conflict Between Pakistan and India
    South Asian Studies A Research Journal of South Asian Studies Vol. 34, No. 2, July – December, 2019, pp. 367 – 382 Kashmir: The Major Source of Conflict between Pakistan and India Abdul Majid University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan. Shoukat Ali University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan. Fazal Abbas University of the Punjab, Lahore, Pakistan. Shazia Kousar Superior University Lahore, Pakistan. ABSTRACT Kashmir is the most serious dispute between Pakistan and India that originated with the British decision to give independence to British India that later divided into two states i.e. Pakistan and India. Being a Muslim majority princely state, the people wanted to join Pakistan. However the non-Muslim ruler of Kashmir opted India. The people of Kashmir revolted against this decision which set the stage for the first Kashmir war between Pakistan and India. Since then India has maintained its control over Kashmir by use of force and a heavy presence of Indian security forces. India and Pakistan fought another war on Kashmir in 1965. Despite India’s coercive policies, Kashmiris continued to resist Indian domination. The current uprising in Kashmir is the latest manifestation of Kashmiri revolt against India. Pakistan and India need to hold talks for a peaceful resolution of Kashmir which is also acceptable to the Kashmiris. They do not want to live under Indian rule and want to decide about the future of Kashmir through plebiscite, as promised in the UN resolutions of 1948-49. Key Words: Kashmir, UN, Pakistan, India Introduction According to Indian Independence Act 1947, India was divided into two states known as Pakistan and India.
