Kashmir Conference at British Parliament Calls for Tripartite Talks
July 26, 2024The Kashmir Conference, held at the British Parliament under the auspices of Tehreek-e-Kashmir UK, demanded tripartite talks to resolve the Kashmir dispute.
The event saw participation from British MPs, human rights organizations, student union representatives, and Kashmiri leaders. Raja Fahim Kayani, President of Tehreek-e-Kashmir UK, presided over the conference.
Speakers condemned India’s actions on August 5, 2019, as violations of international laws and UN resolutions. They urged the British Labour government to play a role in resolving the Kashmir issue, referencing the resolution passed in the 1995 Labour Party annual conference.
The conference called for the British government to convene an international conference to prepare a roadmap for resolving the Kashmir issue through tripartite talks between India, Pakistan, and Kashmiri representatives. This would facilitate progress towards a UN-supervised plebiscite.
British MPs such as Andrew Gwynne, Dave Ibrahim, Imran Hussain, Ian Byrne, Sarah Owen, Richard Hopkins, Paula Hamilton, Iqbal Mohammad, Clive Butler, and Afzal Khan attended, emphasizing that resolving the Kashmir issue is crucial for peace in South Asia and warning of the risk of nuclear conflict.
Kashmiri leader Mazamil Yaqoob Thakur highlighted that India’s military efforts have failed to suppress the Kashmiri demand for freedom. Other leaders, including Muhammad Ghalib, Khawaja Muhammad Suleman, Rehana Ali, Sadaf Abbas Chema, Naila Azmat, Chaudhry Iqbal, Chaudhry Sharif, and Chaudhry Ramzan Sheikh Qazi, demanded an end to India’s attempts to change the demographic ratio in Kashmir, citing it as a violation of the Geneva Convention.
The conference concluded with a resolution presented by Raja Fahim Kayani, demanding the release of political prisoners, lifting media restrictions, reversing India’s illegal actions, ending black laws, stopping demographic changes, and urging the British government to play a role in resolving the Kashmir issue.
