Mr. Burzine Waghmar (EFSAS Fellow) speaking during EFSAS side-event at the 36th Session of the UNHRC
19-09-2017, Geneva
Mr. Burzine Waghmar (Research Fellow at EFSAS) affiliated at the University of London’s School of Oriental and African Studies, SOAS South Asia Institute and Centre for the Study of Pakistan stressed predominantly on the Jammu & Kashmir issue during his speech. He argued that the Composite Dialogue Process, thanks to Mumbai 26/11, is pretty much compost for which Kashmiris have much to be embittered about and should blame Pakistan for, in this case. He added that whereas India’s men in uniform face intense scrutiny in Kashmir, the Pakistani Army enjoys a far freer hand decimating whole villages across the NWFP and Balochistan. He called upon the Hurriyat Conference and especially its hard-line leader, Syed Ali Shah Geelani, to pause to reflect and commiserate with those distraught Baloch relatives who discover mutilated corpses by roadsides stuffed with faeces in their mouth as part of the Pakistani’s deep state’s pick up and dump routine.
