On 8th April 2008, Title Constitutional, Political and Socio-Economic Conditions of Gilgit Baltistan Under the banner of International Kashmiri Alliance (IKA)

Speaking at the Brussels conference, he said, "BALAWARISTAN (Pakistan Occupied Gilgit Baltistan), DISPUTED PART OF JAMMU & KASHMIR WHICH IS ALSO A MOST DEPRIVED AND NEGLECTED PART OF THE WORLD I am taking this opportunity to introduce my country Balawaristan (Pakistan Occupied Gilgit Baltistan) and enlighten you about the particular regions geographically occupies strategic significance in periphery of Pakistan under its control known as Northern Areas, but historically known as Brooshaal/Bloristan, Dardistan or Gilgit Baltistan, we call it Balawaristan. We also reserve our right over Pakistan occupied Chitral and Shenaki Kohistan, China Occupied Shimashaal and Ladakh (including Aksaichin), which are part and parcel of Balawaristan.

This Area comprises over 2 million inhabitants and spread over 28,000 Square miles, WHICH came under Pakistan's control on 16th Nov. 1947 as a result of local uprising against the then Maharajah (Ruler) of Jammu & Kashmir.

Now I want to draw your kind attention towards my COMPLAIN with regret, that all the invitees from Balawaristan and PoK of this conference were not given visas by Belgium Embassy of Islamabad, while on the other hand dozens and dozens Pakistani nationals disguised themselves as Kashmiris were given visas for another conference here just ended a week ago. We do not expect such injustice from a democratic country which is the center of European Union.

UNCIP resolutions.

TRUCE TERMS 28 APRIL 1949

Pakistan agreed to withdraw all its forces and armed personals, tribesmen and citizens from the state of Jammu & Kashmir including Balawaristan (O.G.B.) within a period of 7 weeks.

The report of the Commission sets forth the three most important obstacles which balked its efforts to reach agreement:
(a) Disposal of Azad Kashmir forces,
(b) Withdrawal of regular forces from the State, and
(c) The northern area.
This is the ONLY area of the 21st century,
WHERE 2 million people have no Representation, no Judiciary, no democracy, no human rights, no basic rights, no freedom of expression and no freedom of movement:

Politically Area remains largely unrepresented since 16th Nov. 1947 till today after a passage of 3066 weeks and 6 days, instead of 12 weeks, which were fixed by UNCIP. We do not find anybody that could be called the representative body elected for legislation and administration. This region has no representation in Pakistan or India nor in Jammu and Kashmir neither it has its own Representation.

Constitutionally Balawaristan is not a part of Pakistan. It's a constitutional part of India, because the Ruler (Maharaja Hari Singh) has annexed Jammu and Kashmir with India on 26th Oct 1947 after Pakistani invasion against his state. Just like Pakistan India also does not fulfill its obligation for the representation of Balawaristan in its Parliament. Though 25 seats have been reserved in Indian side of J&K Assembly and 6 seats in Indian Parliament for Balawaristan and PoK, but Political parties have never been invited to fulfill these seats during elections so far. But in Pakistan there are reserve seats for Indian side of J&K people, but no seat for the people of Balawaristan. Even the people of Balawaristan are not given the right of vote, what say for representation.

Fauzia Saleem Abbas, a local lady and ex-Counselor of Northern Areas Council had filed a writ petition (Petition No 11 and 17 of 1994 THROUGH Al Jehad Trust of Pakistan) was filed in the Supreme Court of Pakistan against the denial of basic Human Rights to the people of occupied Balawaristan (Gilgit Baltistan) in 1994.

Attorney General of Pakistan Ch. Muhammad Farooq in S. Court 2.The Chief Court Northern Areas shall exercise all powers and perform all functions which were being performed by the Court of Judicial Commissioner being the highest court of judicature in the Northern Areas.
Due to international pressure, ISI, in order to save the face of Pakistan, activated this file after 5 years pending. The Supreme Court of Pakistan revealed that Pakistan had deprived the people, of occupied Balawaristan, of their basic rights since 1947. Pakistan government was instructed by Supreme Court of Pakistan to make arrangements through amendment in the constitution to grant basic human rights and the right to govern, to the people of this region.

I appreciate the Supreme Court of Pakistan for its confession regarding denial of all rights but at the same time, I regret that the highest court of Pakistan and it's judges might have not thoroughly gone through the records of the UN resolutions. According to UNCIP, Pakistan government cannot make any amendments in its constitution.

Judiciary is another sector that doesn't exist as full and independent judiciary in Gilgit Baltistan. There are two Kangaroo Courts, called as Chief Court and Appellant court, whose members (not called Judges) are appointed by the Pakistani minister for Kashmir and Northern Affairs on contract basis. These judges appointment is not made on the merit basis rather solely on the political and religious considerations. Members/Judges loyalty is not with Law or Justice but widely act under the direction from that minister and Pakistan's bureaucrats who are holding administrative, Financial and Judicial powers in the Area. ISI is another institution which dictates the so-called members/Judges on different cases of their interest. The present Chairman of Chief court was selected by considering his religious as well as his Political views not his ability in Judiciary who owns the extremist views and largely involved in victimizing the non-fanatic religious groups the majority population of the region. But Islamabad obduracy is determined to continue its illegal occupation by exercising extra-sovereign and extra-constitutional powers to suppress the local indigenous people by all means. Its irony that the 2 million local indigenous people of this disputed land have no right to seek the Justice anywhere because it does not fall under the constitutionally Jurisdiction of Pakistan and it's courts. While India cannot exercise its constitutional powers, because it's out of its control. This ambiguity has grave consequences to the 2 million indigenous people in terms of Justice, Basic and Human Rights.

Freedom of expression or fundamental freedoms occupy centrality in the domain human rights that are linked with each other that can't be separated or selective, and can only be ensured when there is independent Judiciary and free media, transparent political process guaranteed by the constitution of that land. As I have tried to elaborate above about the condition of Judiciary and constitutional position of Gilgit Baltistan that completely determine political course of Pakistan controlled Areas.
There is no freedom of expression. More than 200 Political leaders, workers and religious people were tortured, sent behind bars and many were killed, when they dared to express their views against Pakistani occupation.

Whereas, media was never allowed to function and flourish as authorities have widely been discouraging any attempt to launch any indigenous independent media in Gilgit Baltistan. Numerous instances victimization and banning of the weekly and monthly magazines have been reported by the Pakistan based media and complaints were lodges in the UN human rights commission in Geneva many times.

There was one independent local News Paper, Kargil International, which was banned and its Chief Editor Engineer Manzoor Hussain Parwana and Editor Agha Shehzad were arrested and charged in sedition case. Chief Editor of Weekly K2 (now Daily K2) was arrested and blocked his advertisement dues to compel him to write according to the direction of ISI. His dues were released and charges were withdrawn, when he changed his motto and did what he was dictated. A book Titled "LAST COLONY OF 21st CENTURY" was banned, which was written by Abdul Hamid Khan, Chairman Balawaristan National front. "KARGIL INTERNATIONAL" which was printing stories of those killed from Balawaristan (Pakistan Occupied Gilgit Baltistan) in Kargil War 1999 and was vocal about the way government of Pakistan portrayed local soldiers of NLI as Mujahideen and the issue of killing local soldiers as mercenaries was linked with the status of the region albeit between the line was banned. Sedition charges have been registered against him and his editor Shehzad Agha and they are under serious threat of ISI. Local Journalists are so afraid of the ISI and Pakistan Army, who cannot protest against such illegal and immoral acts of Pakistani imposed regime. The editor, reporters and hawkers of another Weekly Bang-e-Sahar (Urdu) are being harassed by Pakistani agencies and its agents. There is no freedom for the media. All the news papers and their journalists are under threat of Pakistan agencies.

Recently a journalist, Sharf-Ud-Din was brutally tortured by Police in Gilgit, as a result he was admitted in Hospital. Journalists working for print and electronic media are continuously being harassed by law enforcement agencies when they expressed their dissent against the government policies in Gilgit-Baltistan. During the last year the house of Gilgit Press Club's president Khurshid Ahmad was bombed thrice to intimidate him when he asserted that the local journalists would not print the controversial material of different militant organisations. In October 2005, the bureau chief of Karakorum Publishing Network Manzar Shigri was detained by the rangers when he insisted to take a snap of an injured person outside DHQ hospital Gilgit. The local newspapers are denied advertisements whenever they criticized government policies or working of different government departments.

The government continued with its policy of banning on unions. In 2004 the local administration banned the Northern Areas Lecturers Association in education department. In addition to this, the government banned trade unions and association in government departments, such as NAPWD, Northern Areas Transport Cooperation and Pakistan Post Office.

The Area remains void of genuine political representation since the establishment of Pakistan's control on 16th Nov 1947. No credible political institution could be evolved in last 61 years except some dummy NAsC had been created in 1970s when people serious grievances began to surface in the political form as a result of continued denial to right to represent through election. However, its name had been changed in to NALC (Northern Areas Legislative Council) in spite of so called NALC, political domain is completely controlled and run by the Pakistan minister, KANA, who heads this NALC and assume all superior, administrative, Judicial and Financial powers that turned this political body. Again General Musharraf again changed its name NALC to NALA (Northern Areas Legislative Assembly) and now NALA into mockery because the same Minister of KANA Division Islamabad exercises all powers and can dissolve this elected body when he wishes so, as it was the same practice since 1971. NALA has no power for legislation, it can only submit its RESOLUTION to the Minister based in Islamabad who is not representative of this land, it's his discretionary power, whether he accepts NALA's resolution or not. But the name of this elected body is LEGISLATIVE in the papers only.

Attorney General of Pakistan Ch. Muhammad Farooq in S. Court

THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE Government of Pakistan under the UNCIP Resolutions, and the orders and directions as may be issued by it, and subject to financial limitations as it may impose from time to time, the following shall be the powers and functions of the Council, namely a) To make the laws with respect to the municipal functions as may be specified by the government of Pakistan.
"¦"¦"¦..
g). to perform and exercise all powers and functions which may be exercised and performed by a Local Council in Pakistan.
There is no Democracy, more than 200 local politicians including me (Abdul Hamid Khan Chairman BNF) are facing sedition charges (in Gilgit, Gahkoch and Skardu Kangaroo Courts since 1997 till today), the charges of seditions are the highest than the whole world. All these who are facing sedition charges did not take any weapon against illegal occupation of Pakistan. Their only fault was to express their political views in public. Only religious and pro-Pakistani political parties in Balawaristan (Pakistan Occupied Gilgit Baltistan) are given free hand for propagation. In spite of Political, Religious parties are encouraged in almost all the recruitments and benefits in daily public affairs, with the intention to create more and more sectarian gape among the indigenous people. Pakistani imposed Minister of KANA division Islamabad has the sole power to dismiss the so-called legislative body any time, while his executive, financial and Judiciary orders cannot be challenged in any court.

Its irony, there is no mention of this type of so-called government or even the name of Northern Areas or Gilgit Baltistan in the constitution of Pakistan. The political discrimination manifests in economic, religious, fundamental rights and social sectors. Widespread human rights abuses are taking place but there is no such organization, institute, free media that could report these human rights abuses.

The occupying regime of Pakistan has been violating State Subject rule (which was introduced by the Hindu ruler of Jammu & Kashmir to protect the economy, history and culture of the indigenous people) , as a result Pakistan has almost changed the demography of this disputed part by settling its own national (Pakistani Afghan, Chinese and other foreign national) by violating UNCIP resolutions. These settlers are largely extremists from the NWFP, who smuggle Arms and drugs in the disguise of business under the protection of Pakistani agencies and forces.

Human rights abuses are widespread and common in Gilgit Baltistan for many decades but unfortunately the absence of local free media, independent judiciary, misrepresentation and distortion of facts have helped the Islamabad to hide its illicit practices normally carried out in the disguise of political authority. Large population faces severe human rights abuses that encompass political, religious, ethnic and economic biases. This disputed area faces serious and widespread discrimination in the form of economic, social and political spheres.

There is no Human Rights Organization in this part of the world. Human Right Commission of Pakistan has prepared a report only last year, but that was also partially true, because of its interest with Pakistan, it does not reflect the actual demand and inspiration of the indigenous people. Its irony that World famous Human Rights organizations do not give any attention towards this most neglected area. This is the only part of the world, where Human Rights are 100 percent violated, because the local indigenous people have no right to appeal in any court against any Human rights Violations. More than 200 political activists and leaders of this land including me are facing sedition charges of Pakistani section 124 A, because we dared to protest against Pakistani occupation in peaceful public gathering. In real term, Pakistan has no right to impose its rules and regulation over this disputed part of J&K, because of the UNCIP resolutions.

The International Crisis Group (ICG) has issued a bleak report on Gilgit and Baltistan, highlighting what it called the "embittered" feelings of the area's inhabitants because of Islamabad's "unwillingness" to devolve power to its elected representatives.
HRCP (Pakistan) Report Sept 2006: The people of Northern Areas (NAs) are seeking an end to the long ambiguity over their constitutional status, access to basic rights and an end to unrest, sectarian violence and sense of uncertainty currently prevailing in the region, said a report of Human Rights Commission of Pakistan on Northern Areas.

The intensity of oppression can be understood that government declared Schools and Public buildings as Jail when jails were insufficient to accommodate the detainees. Still more than 100 Shia Muslims (whose fault is to protest peacefully against the bias Islamic Syllabus) are languishing in School since 2005, when they protest against Pakistani discrimination. The dispute erupted when government decided to teach one sect curriculum in the Schools that created serious opposition from Shia community those were detained and many are still in Jails. Syllabus issue has been created by the occupying regime to divide and rule, otherwise there is no need to teach separate Islamic syllabus in the Schools.

It's our stand, either no Islamiyat in the government Schools (Islamiyat can be taught in homes or mosques) or common Islamiyat like before 1970s should be re-introduced.

A prominent Shia Leader of Gilgit Baltistan Syed Agha Zia "“Ud-Din was killed on 8th Jan 2005 by ISI trained terrorist in Gilgit , because of his firm opposition to the imposed one sect syllabus upon them in the Schools. Shia Central mosque Gilgit was bombed by Pakistani forces. A Shia School teacher Bilal Hussain Qazalbash was kidnapped by ISI on 10 Sep 2005 from Gilgit . A case was registered against ISI in Lahore High Court Bench by the family with clenching evidence, but Military regime and it's ISI denied of his kidnapping. After many months, Qazalbash was handed over to Rawalpindi Police with truck load of Arms by ISI involving him in fake arms smuggling. One can imagine, how a hostage or detainee can smuggle arms in Pakistan ISI world. He is still languishing in Rawalpindi Jail because of his only religious fault, he belongs to Shia sect, who does not take part in ISI sponsored terrorism.

The religious discrimination against the Shia sect is openly exercised and carried out even in the military forces where Shia Muslims are not allowed to perform their religious duties in cantonment areas.

In Gujranwala cantonment of Pakistan during Eid festival on 20th October 2006, more than 15 soldiers (from Gilgit Baltistan) were dismissed and sent behind bars by Lt. Colonel Fateh Mohammad, Commanding Officer of 14 NLI because of their prayers (Shia prayers do not match with the Pakistan Army's prayers).

EMPLOYEMENT RATIO 70 % highest post in Army, Police, Judiciary, Health, Education and almost all the governments departments are given to a minority group , while the rest 30 % posts are given to the majority population by the consecutive Pakistani extremist governments whether its civilian or Military, with the evil design to divide the indigenous people.

The freedom of movement of the local indigenous people were limited and monitored since Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto the then PM of Pakistan introduced sectarianism among Shia-Sooni in mid seventies after Public broke Gilgit Jail and released the Political leaders.

But this was more tightened when General Zia introduced Jehad against USSR for West. Extremist elements were recruited in occupied Balawaristan like Pakistan in all the institutions including Military, Judiciary, Education, Health etc and this trend Military dictatorship turned more serious mode during General Musharraf Martial Law. See one example of free movement below. From Ratto to Zila Bala Cantonment of Astore, local people are frisked including ladies by the Pakistani forces. Between Chilim and Burzil the same defamation exercise is carried out by Pakistani forces. The reason of this is to make sure the safety and security of the terrorist camps located in these areas under the supervision of the ISI. Security is the duty of Pakistani forces. But these clever forces misguide foreigners by saying that they are doing this to keep away the terrorist threat, but actually by doing this they provide security and safety to the terrorists. Police does not issue certificates to the nationalist and particularly to the BNF members , who want to travel or who want to get loans in return of their own property mortgage. Nobody can get job in government as well as in NGOs unless ISI issues no objection certificate. Such Military order from DC Skardu can be read from the website www.balawaristan.net .

History is witnessed that people of this region has inherited culture that coexisted with other cultures for centuries as it has been the transit to India and central Asia through silk road instead of this, the local indigenous culture was intact till Pakistanis stepped in. While region being part of State Jammu and Kashmir and its administration and cross cultural interaction has further enriched this old civilization of the regions where different languages, faiths and tribes if have been at war but they collaborated against the enemy when their local culture was in danger. In very difficult time local culture managed to maintain its tolerant and plural essence but since Pakistan took over the administration the ritual, traditions, and civilization continue to decay as political, social and religious freedom has almost been denied to the people. History has been distorted by the communal and sectarian approach largely was advanced under Pakistan control to promote their own agenda by terming it as Islamic identity against the pluralist tolerant society. This is not done with their love for Islam, but this is their evil design to rule over this land by dividing the people in to sectarianism forever.

NATURAL RESOURCES

As Balawaristan was culturally rich it was rich in resources especially in terms of its natural resources. It has many resources from Gold, ruby, Emerald and other precious mines, Iron ore and Uranium besides Tourism. Water is another major source. Pakistan's major source of water is River Indus, which flows through Balawaristan by destroying its fertile land and forest. But Pakistan pays 6 billion Rupees as Royalty of river Indus to its own province NWFP instead of Balawaristan. This area has rich in natural resources estimated more than 2500021 Billion Rupees () Karakorum Highway (KKH) the main trade route of Pakistan with China goes through by destroying our land, forest, natural beauty, culture and history. Pakistan levies Custom tax and all other benefits from this Routes but gives nothing to us. Pakistan has put us in danger, because it has been importing LONG RANGE Korean Missiles via this route through China besides many other Military equipment.

Pakistan ceded our precious land of 2500 Sq. Mile of Shamshaal Hunza to China in 1963 to construct this route. Though Pakistan has no right to give our land to any other country according UNCIP. Unfortunately local authority has no right to extend its claim and demand the share as a result of direct Islamabad's control major resources are plundered without any royalty, compensation or fair share in the resources.

Pakistani occupying regime even do not spare the lives of the rare endangered animals, like snow leopard, Ibex, wild sheep, Eagles, vultures and other animals. Pakistani occupying regime have been killing these animals and birds by using gunship helicopters and other means. On the other hand, Pakistan is planning to build a Dam for its own benefit on this disputed land before the settlement of J & K issue as a result of large area along with its rich culture and history of this part of the world will be submerged. The capacity of this so-called Bhasha Diamar Dam is 7.31 Million Hector, which will not only effect its history, natural beauty but environment, life and resources, as a result more than 80,000 indigenous people will be dislodged. Pakistan again misusing the funds of international community by bribing the forefront leaders of the Anti Dam (Diamar) to build dam by all means.

Before making any dame, the right of the ownership of the local people should be accepted before international community. The owners have the right to sell it on their conditions or not to sell. Pakistani themselves do not allow a Dam (Kalabagh Dam) on their own land, because of its huge destruction but do not bother of the destruction of the people of Diamar and its negative consequences on the whole Balawaristan.

This area has rich in natural resources estimated more than 2500021 Billion Rupees
. of worth (Minerals including Gold, Ruby, Uranium and other precious and semi precious minerals, Water, Tourism, Forest, Karakorum Highway (KKH), Tax, Custom on China Hunza border, Wild Life and Air Routes etc). Although Area is devoid of economic development as majority of the male population has to migrate to Pakistani cities in search of their livelihood, the resources are not in the hands of the local people because of the Pakistani occupation. But whatever, jobs are available in the Area in government sector, people face severe discrimination based on religious and political belief, with the evil intention of Divide and Rule.

As nationalists are largely victim of this political discrimination that Pakistan has systematically practice in the government jobs and other sectors that are apparently has been operating to mitigate the people's economic hardship but in practice including banks policy of prejudice against the nationalist political activists who critic to the policies of Pakistan. This anti nationalist policy does not exist only in government services or banks but in education, Development institution, it is widely practiced. Though apparently they use pretext of merit but that merit remains confine to the discretionary powers of the Pakistani and their puppet appointment authority. Even such discriminatory practices are widespread in sanctioning loan, mortgages and seats to the professional colleges. local sun-ordinate employees of Police, Administration, Para-Military, Education, Health and other departments are not only harassed, arrested or dismissed by top Pakistan Military and Civil administration, those occupy top jobs in the region also face serious and variety of discrimination from salaries and promotions too.`

See Martial law order how DC Skardu issues notification of Military Order of 62 Brigade on 25th April 2005 letter No CC-2/2005-04-25, in which he warns all the concerned departments not to appoint any one without prior clarification of 62 Brigade.

Local Police officers DIG Raja Muzaffar, DIG Mir Afzal, AIG, Hashmatullah, SSP Shaukat Rasheed and SSP Mohammad Hanif were detained and sent them behind bars in fake cases (who did not give bribes to National Accountability Bureau (NAB) and other departments of Pakistan Army and its ISI). While the Pakistani national who commit heinous crimes of sectarian murder and involved in financial embezzlements and bribery are free to do so with impunity in Gilgit Baltistan, due to the blessing of occupying regime and its Military power.

This is the only part of the world, which has 8 highest peaks of the world, but no royalty is given to its real owners.
This is the only part of the world, which has huge source of clean water.
This is the only part of the world, which has huge sources of precious, semi precious and industrial minerals.
This is the only part of the world, which links Pakistan with China physically.
This is the only part of the world, which provides physical links to Pakistan with Central Asia and Afghanistan.
This is the only part of the world, which accommodates 80% tourists, who enter Pakistan.
BUT in return
There is no medical / Engineering college or even polytechnic institution.
There is no command of the locals over the Police.
There is no command of the locals over the administration.
There is no command of the locals over the Education.
There is no command of the locals over the Finance.
There is no public representation.
There is no High Court or Supreme Court.
There is no single industry.
There is no health facility.
This is the last colony of 21st century, where Human Rights are 100% violated
This is the last colony of 21st century, where people have no representation
This is the last colony of 21st century, where people have no right over their resources.
This is the last colony of 21st century, where indigenous Military as well as civil employees are discriminated.
This is the last colony of 21st century, where indigenous people are discriminated, because of their faith and ethnicity.

The only thing is FREE here in this part of the world, is TERRORISM in the name of religion, but ONLY by the help, direction and guidance of ISI.

This is the part of dispute J&K where Pakistan has deputed 30000 (thirty thousand) regular troops, 6000 (six thousand)ISI personnels, 5000 (Five thousand) militia and provided arms and training to 40000 (Forty thousand) terrorists, the ratio of armed men with the public is 18:1
The ratio of Indian forces with that of Public of Jammu & Kashmir is 20:1
Religious and political opponents are crushed brutally by forces, Police, Intelligence Agencies and its terrorists.

This is the only part of the world, where every institution is controlled by Army (since 16th Nov. 1947), whether it's time of declared Martial Law or not. This is the only part of the world, where nationalist Political leaders are facing world Record sedition Charges.
This is the most neglected and deprived part of the world, which has been deprived from all kind of rights.

This is the only part of the world, where 2 million indigenous people are facing worst kind of annihilation due to the anti Gilgit Baltistan policies of consecutive Pakistan governments.
Its worth mentioning that the nature of the people of Balawaristan is quite different than that of Pakistanis.

The history of Balawaristan is different than that of Pakistan.
The culture of Balawaristan is quite different than Pakistan.
The language of Balawaristan is quite different than Pakistan.
The ethnicity of Balawaristan is quite different than Pakistan.
And the Belief Balawaristan is quite different than Pakistan.
Its regrettable to say that this is the Failure of UNO, which had passed its resolution on 13 Aug 1948 and 5th Jan 1949 which is called UNCIP Resolutions.

J. It will be made publicly known throughout the State of Jammu and Kashmir that peace, law and order will be safeguarded and that all human and political rights will be guaranteed.
K. These terms are without prejudice to the territorial integrity and the sovereignty of the State of Jammu and Kashmir.

L. The territory evacuated by the Pakistan troops will be administered by the local author¬ities under the surveillance of the Commission.
M. TRUCE TERMS 28 APRIL 1949
"Pending a final solution, the territory evacuated by the Pakistan troops will be administered by The Local Authority under the surveillance of the commission."
i. Failed to provide us to provide peace and law and order safeguarded according to its obligation. Pakistan has given free hand for lawlessness in its occupied Balawaristan and PoK . ii. UN Failed to provide us Human Rights. Pakistan does not respect Human rights.
iii. UN Failed to provide us Political Rights. There are no Political rights in Pakistan occupied Balawaristan.
iv. UN Failed to protect the people and the integrity and sovereignty of Balawaristan.
v. UN failed to evacuate the territory of Balawaristan and PoK from the occupation of Pakistan even after the long passage of 61 years.
vi. UN Failed to facilitate the people of Balawaristan to establish Local Authority in particular and in PoK in general.
vii. Its Failure of UN, which has limited the meaning of SELFDETERMINATION for the people of J&K including Balawaristan. The people of Balawaristan have only right to merge with Pakistan or India. There is no freedom according to UN resolution, which does not match with the soul of Self-determination in 21st century.
If the world community does not take any appropriate action against the perpetrators of the terrorism, this land would also create serious security problems to the world peace in the future, if Military of Pakistan and it's Intelligent Agencies are not reined and the flow of money (which fuels the current volcanic situation) from USA, Europe and Saudi Arab was not stopped.
Now this is not a mere question of Human Rights or any so-called Constitutional Rights, which some people urge. The 61 years long deprivation would not be ended by mere the ambiguous demand of constitutional rights. Constitutional Rights itself is ambiguous, because Balawaristan is not a constitutional part of Pakistan, like NWFP, Punjab, Sind, Baluchistan or Tribal areas. This is disputed part of J&K according to the UN resolutions and other international documents, whether some people accept it or not.

Whom constitutional rights we want, whether Pakistani constitution, Indian Constitution, Chinese constitution, UNO constitution, J&K Constitution, NO, we the 2 million people of this land want our own constitution. In the presence of its legal and international obligation, Pakistan cannot grant us its own constitutional rights. The only obstacle Pakistan can remove, is to accept the SELF RULE for Balawaristan till the decision of the whole J&K issue, according to its international commitments, which I think, will also not oppose by the Indian government as well as the international community.

We are not ready to be genocide and vanished in the hands of Pakistani extremist regime (Military and Civil) and its network by remaining under its illegal occupation any more.
In my view and in the eyes of 2 million people of this disputed land the solution to emancipate of above mentioned excesses and atrocities of 61 years in the name of Religion could be ended only with the self determination to elect their representative, by FREE and Independent democratic Assembly in a fair election/referendum under the supervision of the UNO or EU, till the final settlement of J&K issue.

1.I also appeal European Parliament through this august conference, that Pakistan should withdraw its forces, civilians and intelligence agencies from Balawaristan and its occupied Jammu and Kashmir as its obligation of UNCIP resolution and should not hoodwink European Union and international community by only Putting precious sign boards of DEMILITARIZATION on different train Stations here in Belgium.
