Pakistan uses blasphemy to terrorise minorities: India at UN Human Rights Council
India on Monday (June 15) got here down closely on Pakistan for elevating the Kashmir concern on the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) in Geneva and expressed “serious concern” over Pakistan’s audacity to accuse New Delhi and others of “effecting a state-sponsored genocide.”
Exercising its Right of Reply after Pakistan raised Kashmir concern at UNHRC, Senthil Kumar, the First Secretary of India’s Permanent Mission slammed Pakistan for misusing the UNHRC discussion board and stated thta Pakistan should introspect on human rights conditions in its nation earlier than giving recommendation to others.
Kumar asserted that crimes in opposition to humanity is a standard factor in Pakistan and enforced disappearances, state violence, compelled mass displacement, extrajudicial killings, military operations, torture camps, detention centres, and navy camps are a daily function in Balochistan.
Referring to India’s choice to abrogate Article 370 which granted particular standing to the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir, Kumar famous that the choice doesn’t have any exterior ramifications. Kumar burdened that folks of Jammu and Kashmir have welcomed the decison and marched forward regardless of Islamabad’s “nefarious attempt” to derail peace and stability within the area.
“It’s unfortunate that Pakistan continues to maintain its track record of misuse of the Human Rights Council and its mechanism. It’s a matter of serious concern that Pakistan being the only country in South Asia of effecting a state-sponsored genocide would have the audacity to accuse others of it,” Kumar stated.
“It’s questionable that a country of serious credibility issues would talk about human rights and self-determination. This country emerged out of religious fundamentalism and bloodshed and its history rigged with assassinations, coups and puppets running,” he added.
Elaborating on the human rights abuses and persecution confronted by the minority communities in Pakistan, Kumar stated, “Systemic misuse of Blasphemy in Pakistan has terrorized the minorities in Pakistan. The recent fate of two Hindu girls in Sindh, one Christian girl in Lahore, one Ahmadi lady in Chaleki, two professors from Khairpur are the examples of systemic targeting of minorities through blasphemy laws. The state of Pakistan is well manifested in the impunity in the murder of 65 transgenders in Pakistan since 2015.”
“Enforced disappearances, state violence and forced mass displacements, harassment, extrajudicial killings, army operations, torture, kill-and-dumps, torture camps, detention centres, military camps are regular features in Balochistan. India also pointed out that there was no information on the fate of 47,000 Baloch persons and 35,000 Pashtuns who have been missing till date. It added that sectarian violence has claimed over 500 Hazaras in Baluchistan and more than 100,000 Hazaras have fled Pakistan,” he added.
