## Justice Sagir Report is falsification of realities
## Report needs to be rejected in totality
## Political Reorganization of J&K is the only solution
In order to sensitize the society about the intentions and fall out of the fifth Working Group recommendations submitted by Justice Sagir Ahmed Sangarsh- A movement for justice, equality, peace, prosperity and brotherhood held a press conference. The press conference was jointly addressed by Ranjeet Sharma, President, Suresh Kumar, General Secretary and Mahesh Kaul, Organizing Secretary of the Organization .
While addressing the media persons Mahesh Kaul said” the report submitted by Justice Sager Ahmed is a non serious move as far as the aspirations of the 40% minorities of the J&K state are concerned. The report has taken the minorities of the state for granted as every attempt has been made in the report to sideline their nationalist and pro-India voice .The report is an attempt to revitalize the and renew the 1953 status of the state and hence delink the state from the national mainstream and reduce the minorities of the state to the hostages to the majoritarian separatist forces of the Kashmir valley.” He questioned the rationale behind the assertion in the report regarding the restoration and strengthening the autonomy in the context of the article 370, when it was supposed to be temporary in reality. The report has also exposed both the concepts of autonomy and self rule as the two sides of the same coin meant to dilute the Indian sovereignty over J&K.
He expressed serious apprehensions about “the flawed role played by the Indian political establishment and the policy makers first in terms of quiet diplomacy and now the controversial recommendations of the Justice Sagir Report. It brings to the light the political consensus in India to give concessions to the separatists and the so called mainstream parties at the cost of the nationalist aspirations of the minorities of the state.
The communal content and the discrimination content in the report are clear as it is opposed to the delimitation of the constituencies in the Jammu region. The outright rejection of the Union territory status to the Ladakh and trivialization of the ethnic cleansing and genocide of the Kashmiri Hindus by reducing their plight to that of only security issue is mockery in itself. The report has also failed to recognize the plight of West Pakistan refugees, who have been reduced to aliens and non entities in their own state.”
Mahesh Kaul further said that,” Report needs to be out rightly rejected as it has not taken into confidence even the members of the Working Group and aptly all the members have disassociated themselves from the Working Group.Moreover, the the Working Group was constituted by the Prime Minister then what is the logic of submitting the report to the Chief minister? All the points of reference are outdated in time and space and thus have no relevance in the present context.Sagarsh is of the firm opinion that political reorganization of the entire state is the only just solution to the communal, social and religious problems of the state.”
