Pakistan calls on UNSC to act, prevent impending atrocities against Muslims in India, IOK

NEW YORK (Web Desk) - At the United Nation, Pakistan has called on the UN Security Council to act and prevent impending atrocities against the Muslims in India and in occupied Kashmir.

At a Security Council Arria Formula meeting on Preventing Future Atrocities, Pakistan Ambassador Munir Akram said we are unfortunately witnessing a global resurgence of right wing and fascist ideologies, hate speech, xenophobia, Islamophobia, incitement to violence and acts of brutal violence.

He said these trends have been exacerbated, rather than ameliorated, by the Covid-19 pandemic the most serious global crisis since the founding of the United Nations.

He said sadly state-sponsored Islamophobia has found a fertile home in Bharatiya Janata Party -RSS ruled India.

He said the founding fathers of the RSS were avowedly inspired by Hitler and endorsed the aim to cleanse Germany of the Jews. The ‘sevaks’ of the RSS, modeled on the Nazi ‘brown shirts’, are launched on a programme to eliminate India’s Islamic heritage.

The envoy said the ethos of the Hindu supremists was epitomized in the declaration of a prominent BJP parliamentarian that all people are not equal, Muslims are not equal in category. If Muslims become more than 30%, that country is dangerous”.

About occupied Jammu and Kashmir, Munir Akram said, the BJP-RSS leaders are engaged in imposing what they themselves have called a final solution- a plan to crush Kashmir’s quest for self-determination and freedom and colonize it into a Hindu majority territory.
