(FOR USE OF INFORMATION MEDIA — NOT AH OFFICIAL RECORD) Press Release KASH/131 £4 August 1965 l ' STATEMENT ST.SEE SECTARY-C-MERALON; TEE YJMOWIi SITUATION \ "As already indicated, I am greatly concerned about the situation in Kashmir. It poses a very serious ana dangerous threat to peace. "Therefore, in the course of the past two waeks, I have been in earnest confutation with the peraianent representatives cf the two Governments with a view to stopping the violations o£ the cease-fire line which have been reported to me by General ITimmo, Chief Military Observer of UHMOGIP,* and effecting a restoration of normal conditions along the cease-fire line. "la the same context I have had in mind the possibility of sending urgently a Personal Representative to the area for the purpose of meeting and talking with appropriate authorities of the two Governments and with General Mmmo, and conveying to the Governments my very serious concern about the situation and exploring with them ways and means of preventing any further deterioration in that situation and restoring quiet along the cease-fire line. "Should such a mission materialize I had it in mind to ask Dr. Ralph J. Bunche, Under-Secretary for Special Political Affairs, to undertake it. The idea was broached to the two parties informally on 20 August. The subsequent responses of the two Governments, while not negative, involved in each case conditions which, in my view, would make the mission not feasible at this time and therefore I have abandoned it. "As a further and immediate step, however, I have asked General Mimmo to come quickly to United nations Headquarters for consultation with me about the situation in Kashmir, and he is expected to arrive from Srinagar before the end of the week, I shall give, consideration to other efforts that I might make in the light of the discussions with General Mmmo." * Major-General Robert H, Nimmo, Chief Military Observer of the United Nations Military Observer Group in India and Pakistan (UWMGGIP). PAKISTAN MISSION TO THE UNITED NATIONS PAKISTAN HOUSE 8 EAST 65™ STREET NEW YORK 2 I, N . Y. August 25, 196? STATEMENT BY SPOKESMAN OF PAKISTAN MISSION TO THE UNITED NATIONS We regret that the proposed mission of Dr. Ralph Bunche has been abandoned. ue want to make it clear that the Pakistan Government had accepted this mission on the understanding that Dr. Bunche would have an unrestricted mandate. Since a grave situation has arisen in Kashmir, we felt it would have been a serious disservice to peace to restrict or inhibit Jais. functions in any way. It is our conviction that the turmoil in Kashmir needs to be fuULy and impartially studied if any viable solution is to be evolved. Such a study will be futile if it seeks to separate the cuase from the effect, if it neglects the root of the trouble. The cease-fire line cannot be isolated from the surrounding land and its people. The concept of restoring quiet along the cease-fire line presupposes that of making an effort towards a peaceful and honourabla .settlement of the dispute itself. Certainly, it is something quite different from restoring or maintaining the status quo ante in Kashmir, which is all that India wants so that it could fulfill its designs of completely annexing the State. A mission of this kind has been long overdue* The Military Observers in Kashmir have a very limited function and they have no jLocu^ standi so far as the general situation in Jammu and Kashmir is concerned. This is the reason why we were happy that a person of Dr. Bunche!s calibre should have the opportunity of examining the situation in Kashmir and consulting the leaders of the people of Kashmir with reference to the imperative need for implementing the Resolutions of the United Nations. PAKISTAN MISSION TO THE UNITED NATIONS PAKISTAN HOUSE PRESS RELEASE 8 EAST 65T_H STREET NEW YORK 2 I, N . Y. September J, 1965 TEXT OF FIRST OF THE MONTH BROADCAST BY PRESIDENT MOHAMMAD AYUB KHAN RAWALPINDI, September 15 1965 : President Mohan-mad Ayub Khan declared blatant acts of Indian aggression across the cease-fire line in Kashmir "cannot and shall not be allowed to go unchallenged". The President said failing to suppress the freedom fighters in occupied territory of Jammu and Kashmir India had embarked on a course of aggression across the cease-fire line. A glaring example of cease-fire violation was the re-occupation of the three vacant posts on Pakistan side of the cease-fire line in Kargill sector. The President said Indian Defence Minister confessed in the Indian ^arliament that "whenever India had found necessary to cross the cease-fire line to defend it she had done so and I have no doubt we are ready to do so again". The President added,that this readiness to use force in defiance of international agreements was further demonstrated, by fresh incursions in the Poonch-Uri sector. The President further said "The Indian leaders and Indian Press have been proudly announcing that India has crossed the cease-fire line. So much for Indian respect for the cease-fire line. How can she blame anyone from Azad Kashmir, or for that matter from any part of Pakistan, to go to the assistance of those brave people in Jaumu and Kashmir who are in life and death struggle against the brutal occupation forces of India." The President added: "India blames us for supporting these valiant fighters against Indian tyranny. Ve are doing no more than what we have always pledged to do, which is to support the people of Kashi/ir in exercising their right of self-determination as pledged to them by the United Nations, Pakistan, as well as India. India has dishonoured her pledge. Pakistan shall honour it." The President continued "People of Jammu and Kashmir will have the support of all those who believe in the freedom of man. Sheer physical force cannot break the support of a brave and determined people. If might and power could determine the fate of nationst no country in Africa and Asia would be free today.11" The President added /'Patience and testraint which we have imposed on ourselves in the interest of peace in this area has been misunderstood by India. The sense of discipline shown by our people springs from their faith and ability to defend their country. In this supreme hour of their trial, people of Pakistan will rise like one man and give a befitting reply to Indian aggression." Referring to the popular revolt which broke out in the occupied Kashmir on August 8, 19653 the President said : "The successes achieved by the freedom fighters have been striking and their heroic deeds will be a source of inspiration to all those engaged in the struggle for freedom in different parts of the world. The torch of freedom lit by these patriots has been carried from village * 2 * to village and city to city," Concluding the President remarked that Pakistan was faced with two challenges. The first was posed by India's hostility which has "been mounting ever since she started receiving massive arms aid. from abroad. The second was the challenge to the country's self-reliance. He said he was confident that both these challenges could be turned into an opportunity to release creative energies of people bringing out qualities of resourcefulness and dedication for it was in times like these that nations fulfilled their destiny. PERMANENT MISSION OF INDIA TO THE UNITED NATIONS 3 EAST 64.TH STREET NEW YORK, N. Y. IOO21 New Delhi, Sept.A, 1965 Text of message from the Prime Minister of India ^0 the Secretary-General of the U.N. I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your message received on September 2. I appreciate the considerations that have prompted you to address an appeal to us and to Pakistan. Our Permanent Representative in New York has been in frequent touch with you and has kept you informed of the situation as it has developed since August 5. I have no doubt that from all the information that you have received from the United Nations Observers in Kashmir and on the basis of your own assessment, it is clear that the root cause of the present dangerous situation is the undertaking of massive infiltrations of armed pe-rsonnel from the Pakistan side, well organised and trained in-sahotage and subversive warfare, tho whole operation to ing conceived, planned and executed by Pakistan. The infiltrators are, in fact, members of Pakistan Armed-Forces. These infiltrations arc still continuing.. Such action by Pakistan is a clear violation of the Charter of the United Nations and of the Cease Fire Agreement and against all canons of international law and code of good noighboTarliness. It is to meet this thinly disguised inva-sion that the Government of India, while showing every forbearance, have boon forced to take preventive military .action. In your message you have appealed in the interests of peace that we should indicate our intention to respect the Cease Fire Agreement, that there should be a cessation of cr»ssingsof the Cease Fire Line by armcd personnel from both sides of the Line and a halt to all firing across the Cease -Fire Line from either side of it.

    http://gdc.gale.com/archivesunbound/ INDIA-PAKISTAN CONFLICT: RECORDS OF THE U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT, FEBRUARY 1963-1966 Over 16,000 pages of State Department Central Files on India and Pakistan from 1963 through 1966 make this collection a standard documentary resource for the study of the political relations between India and Pakistan during a crucial period in the Cold War and the shifting alliances and alignments in South Asia. Date Range: 1963-1966 Content: 15,387 images Source Library: U.S. National Archives Detailed Description: Relations with Pakistan have demanded a high proportion of India’s international energies and undoubtedly will continue to do so. India and Pakistan have divergent national ideologies and have been unable to establish a mutually acceptable power equation in South Asia. The national ideologies of pluralism, democracy, and secularism for India and of Islam for Pakistan grew out of the pre-independence struggle between the Congress and the All-India Muslim League, and in the early 1990s the line between domestic and foreign politics in India’s relations with Pakistan remained blurred. Because great-power competition—between the United States and the Soviet Union and between the Soviet Union and China—became intertwined with the conflicts between India and Pakistan, India was unable to attain its goal of insulating South Asia from global rivalries. This superpower involvement enabled Pakistan to use external force in the face of India’s superior endowments of population and resources. The most difficult problem in relations between India and Pakistan since partition in August 1947 has been their dispute over Kashmir.

Following partition, princely states were left to choose whether to join India or Pakistan or to remain independent. Jammu and Kashmir, the largest of the princely states, had a majority Muslim population and significant fraction of Hindu population, all ruled by the Hindu Maharaja Hari Singh.

A formal cease-fire was declared at 23:59 on the night of 1 January 1949. India gained control of about two-thirds of the state (Kashmir valley, Jammu and Ladakh) whereas Pakistan gained roughly a third of Kashmir (Azad Kashmir, and Gilgit–Baltistan).

    Title: Agreement between Pakistan and India on West Pakistan-India border disputes Parties: India, Pakistan Basin: Indus Date: 1/11/1960 No. 5364. AGREEMENT1 BETWEEN PAKISTAN AND INDIA ON WEST PAKISTAN-INDIA BORDER DISPUTES SIGNED AT NEW DELHI, ON 11 JANUARY 1960 AGREED DECISIONS AND PROCEDURES TO END DISPUTES AND INCIDENTS, ALONG THE INDO-WEST PAKISTAN BORDER AREAS 1. West Pakistan-Punjab border: Of the total of 325 miles of the border in this sector, demarcation has been completed along about 252 miles. About 73 miles of the border has not yet been demarcated due to differences between the Governments of India and Pakistan regarding interpretation of the decision and Award of the Punjab Boundary Commission represented by Sir Cyril Radcliffe as Chairman of the Commission. These differences have been settled along the lines given below in a spirit of accommodation: (i) Theh Sarja Maria, Rakh Hardit Singh and Pathanke (Amritsar-Lahore border).-The Governments of India and Pakistan agree that the boundary between West Pakistan and India in this region should follow the boundary between the Tehsils of Lahore and Kasur as laid down under Punjab Government Notification No. 2183-E, dated 2nd June, 1939. These three villages will, in consequence fall within the territorial jurisdiction of the Government of Pakistan. (ii) Chak Ladheke (Amritsar-Lahore border).-The Governments of India and Pakistan agree that the delineation of the boundary will be as shown in the map of the Kasur Tehsil by Sir Cyril Radcliffe and Chak Ladheke will in consequence fall within the territorial jurisdiction of the Government of India.

  • India's Wars: the Indo-Pakistani Wars and the India-China Border Conflict
    India’s Wars: The Indo-Pakistani Wars and the India-China Border Conflict Takenori Horimoto Since India gained its independence in 1947, it has waged four wars intermittently by the 1970s against Pakistan (Indo-Pakistani Wars) and China (the India-China War). While all of these wars were caused by territorial disputes, the termination of the wars was largely influenced by internal factors as well as the contemporary international situation on each occasion. I. Indo-Pakistani Wars 1. The Kashmir dispute as a root cause of the Indo-Pakistani Wars The Kashmir dispute was the root cause of the Indo-Pakistani Wars. The map below shows all of South Asia (inset) and Kashmir. Pakistan and India in the maps were formerly integrated and made up British India. Kashmir was also a part of British India, and a “princely state” ruled by the Maharaja. Although the Maharaja was Hindu, about three-fifths of the population of the princely state was Muslim (followers of Islam). The difference in religion between the Maharaja and the population was the starting point of the Kashmir dispute, and remains so to the present.1 India and Pakistan were respectively founded by being partitioned and gaining independence from British India in August 1947. When being partitioned and gaining their independence, the territory was divided into India, which was predominantly Hindu, and Pakistan, which was predominantly Muslim. As a result, Pakistan consisted of East and West Pakistan, where many Muslims lived. In the case of Kashmir, the Maharaja was granted a degree of authority to decide whether to belong to India or Pakistan.

Alive and Kicking: The Kashmir Dispute Forty Years Later I. Introduction The Kashmir dispute between India and Pakistan involves a struggle between two powers for the possession of a tract of territory which each wants for its own valid reasons. The stakes are of major economic, political and strategic significance to Pakistan, while to India, Kashmir has become a symbol of national prestige and inter- national justice.1 Charges of aggression and violations of interna- tional law have been asserted by both parties. In considering a solu- tion to the Kashmir dispute, it is necessary to look beyond the blatant facts and see the elements that gave rise to the dispute and the circumstances under which it occurred. A purely legalistic approach never solves large political problems. With this in mind, this Comment begins with an examina- tion of the roots of the conflict: Kashmir's economy, geography, predominantly Moslem population and Hindu ruler.

  • Agreement Between the Government of India and the Government of Pakistan on Withdrawal of Troops
    January 22, 1966 AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT OF INDIA AND THE GOVERNMENT OF PAKISTAN ON WITHDRAWAL OF TROOPS New Delhi The following is the text of the Agreement : INTRODUCTION This Agreement is in four parts : Part I Procedure concerning the immediate disengagement of troops and reduction of tension; Part II Procedure concerning the withdrawal of troops from the occupied areas; Part III Procedure concerning reduction of tension in the Eastern Sector; Part IV General Points. PART I DISENGAGEMENT OF TROOPS AND REDUCTION OF TENSION PHASE 1 Both forces will withdraw 1,000 yards from the Line of Actual Control in sectors as specified below : 1. RAJASTHAN/SIND 2. AMRITSAR/LAHORE 3. JAMMU/SIALKOT 4. AKHNUR/CHHAMB (from River CHENAB NW 8061 To MAWA WALI KHAD NW 7770) In all other sectors including sectors divided by the 1949 Cease Fire Line, troops will continue to hold their respective picquets as by so doing they will be automatically separated from each other. The only exception to this will be where, in hilly terrain, opposing forces are at present considered to be too close to each other, each side will withdraw to a distance to be mutually agreed upon by the local commanders not below the rank of Brigadier. NOTE : In the Amritsar-Lahore sector, this 1000 yards withdrawal will be modified so that Pakistani troops who are actually on the West bank of the BRB Canal and Indian troops who are on the East bank of the BRB Canal facing each other will withdraw all armed personnel off the embankment to a distance of 200 yards on each side.
