India prevents free interaction of people with UN Special Rapporteur--Farooq Rehmani
Islamabad: 28 March, 2012(PR): Chairman Jammu and Kashmir People's Freedom League, Muhammad Farooq Rehmani has urged the Kashmiris especially the victims of extrajudicial, summary, and arbitrary executions to articulate their grievances by making the best use of the presence of the UN Special Rapporteur Christ of Heyns in Srinagar. The families of forcibly disappeared Kashmiris in the past 20 years should come out bravely to meet the UN representative helping him to prepare an exhaustive report of atrocities in connection with the monster of state-terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir.
Muhammad Farooq Rehmani said, "though the authorities and the elements who committed heinous crimes of extra-judicial killings, gang rapes and buried the victims in unmarked graves have had still power to continue the brutalities, are quite capable of lying; but the Kashmiris have burnt their boats therefore they should come forward to divulge untold tales of horror relating to their near and dear ones before the UN Rapporteur." On the part of the Special Rapporteur, he said, it is the prime responsibility of the UN emissary to go from village to village --to collect every bit of information. He said that India was preventing free interaction between the victims and the UN Special Rapporteur to hide some bitter facts, and was still armed with black laws in the State. He said let the world know the perpetrator of brutalities, whether some individual or an institution.

Lahore Resolution changed course of history-- Farooq Rehmani
Islamabad 22 March,2012: Chairman Jammu and Kashmir People's Freedom League ,Muhammad Farooq Rehmani has on the 72 anniversary of Lahore Resolution congratulated the people of Pakistan and paid glowing tributes to the martyrs of the freedom struggle hoping that the present generation will make wholehearted endeavor to revive the spirit of struggle that created Pakistan in 1947. He said that Pakistan today was passing through its history's most turbulent and testing period ,and only a true and honest democratic ,economic and judicial system could ensure its security and integrity .A transparent democratic economic system will make Pakistan prosperous and no power on earth will harm it in any manner.
Muhammad Farooq Rehmani said that a round- the- clock struggle under the dynamic and able leadership of Quad-e-Azam Pakistan was established rekindling hope of a new birth among all the Muslims of the world. But, unfortunately the largest Muslim majority Princely State of the British India was annexed by India forcibly and illegally ,endangering peace and stability of the region.
He said today along with the security and integrity of Pakistan, freedom and right of self-determination for Jammu and Kashmir was equally essential and indispensable, as Quaid-e-Azam and other front-ranking leaders of the Pakistan movement attached great importance to Kashmir's freedom. He recalled that after adopting the Lahore Resolution Quaid visited Srinagar in 1945, and was given enthusiastic and unprecedented welcome by the Kashmiris. Besides when the founder of Pakistan was breathing his last on his death bed he was keen to receive the Kashmir Commission of the UNO to discuss with them the future of Kashmir in line with the Independence Act 1947.This proved his attachment with the State of Jammu and Kashmir.
Muhammad Farooq Rehmani urged on the Pakistanis and their leaders to make and devote all their endeavors towards the country's political and economic strength and stability and scientific progress and further draw a practical line of planning for the freedom of Kashmir and ending of brutal Indian rule in Jammu and Kashmir.
تحریک پاکستان کا دور قوم کیلئے مشعل راہ ہے ۔فاروق رحمانی
انہوں نے کہا کہ آج پاکستان کے استحکام کے ساتھ جموں و کشمیر کی آزادی بھی بنیادی اہمیت کی حامل ہے۔ قائد اعظم ؒ اور تحریک پاکستا ن کے دیگر سرکردہ قائدین کشمیر کی آزادی کو بھی زبردست اہمیت دیتے تھے۔ 1940کے بعد بانی پاکستان سرینگر تشریف لائے تھے اور ا ن کا شایا نِ شان استقبال ہوا تھا ۔ بستر مرگ پر بھی انہوں نے اقوام متحدہ کے کمیشن کے بارے میں سوا ل کیا تھا ۔ جس سے ظاہر ہو تا ہے کہ کشمیر ان کی نظر میں کتنی اہمیت رکھتا تھا۔
محمدفاروق رحمانی نے کہا کہ 23ما رچ پر تمام پاکستانیوں اور ان کے رہنما ؤں کو ملک کے سیاسی و معا شی استحکام ، سائنسی ترقی اور کشمیر کی آ زادی اور بھا رتی ظلم و ستم کے خاتمے کے لیے نئے ولو لے کے ساتھ سیاسی منصوبہ بندی کرنی چاہیئے تاکہ پا کستان کے خلا ف تمام اندرونی اور بیرونی سازشیں ناکا م بنا دی جائیں۔

مسئلہ کشمیر قوت ارادی اور خلوص عمل کا سوال ہے۔ فاروق رحمانی
انہوں نے کہا کہ سیاسی لیڈروں اور حکمرانوں کے خالی خولی بیانات پر افسوس کاا ظہار کر تے ہوئے کہا کہ مسئلہ کشمیر پر پالیسی ساز اداروں اور آزاد کشمیر حکومت کو مغربی دنیا کا سیٹ پیٹرن نہیں اپنانا چاہیئے۔انہیں کشمیری عوام کے خیالات اور ان کی قربانیوں پر ایک ایسا طرز عمل اختیار کرنا چاہے جس کو لوگ مان سکیں اور جو خطے میں مستقل امن کی ضمانت دے۔
انہوں نے کہا کہ آزاد کشمیر، ریاست جموں و کشمیر ہی کا ایک حصہ ہے ، اس لئے یہاں کی حکو مت کی ذمہ داریاں کئی گنا زیادہ ہیں اور یہ آزادی کا بنیادی کیمپ ہے۔ خود غرض اور مخالف عناصر چا ہتے ہیں کہ اس کی یہ پو زیشن ختم ہو تاکہ بھارت کو کشمیر میں نا چنے کا آزادانہ مو قعہ آئے ۔ آزادکشمیر کی حیثیت اس کے تشخص اور انفرادیت کی وجہ سے ہے۔ اس لئے یہاں کی قیادت کا فرض ہے کہ وہ ا پنے بانی رہنماؤں کے نقوش پر چلے۔ بے روح بیانات نہ داغے، بلکہ مسئلہ کشمیر کو زوال پذیر خیالا ت سے نقصان پہنچانے والوں کا راستہ روکے۔
اس سلسلے میں محمد فاروق رحما نی نے میڈیا کی دنیا کا بھی ذکر کیا جو آزادی کی تحریکوں کے لیے ریڑ ھ کی ہڈی کی حیثیت رکھتا ہے۔ انہوں نے کہا کہ میڈیا کو سیاست دانوں اور حکمرانوں کے بیانا ت پر سستی سرخیاں نہیں جما نی چا ئیں کیونکہ وطن کے نصب العین کی خدمت عملی جدوجہد سے عبارت ہو تی ہے۔ انہوں نے کہا کہ اگر حکومت آزاد کشمیر اور اس کے متعلقہ ادارے آزادی کے خلاف بھارت کی میڈیا جنگ کو شکست دینا چاہتے ہیں، تو انہیں آزاد کشمیر ریڈیو مظفر آباد اور آزاد کشمیر پی ٹی وی چینل میں عملی کردار کی رُوح پھونکنی ہو گی ۔ ان دونوں اداروں کو جدوجہد آ زادی کے بارے میں تخلیقی طور پر فعال بنانا چاہے تاکہ پبلک ٹرسٹ پیدا ہو جائے۔ انہوں نے کہا کہ بحا لات موجو دیہ دونوں میڈیا ادارے غیر فعا لیت کی وجہ سے بوسیدہ لکڑیوں میں تبدیل ہو گئے ہیں اور عوام کسی بھی وقت دونوں کے دفنائے جا نے کی خبر سننے کا انتظار کررہے ہیں۔
محمدفاروق رحمانی نے کہا کہ پاکستان اور آزاد کشمیر کے بہترین مفا دات کا تقاضا ہے کہ ان اداروں کو اعلیٰ نو کر شاہی مفادات سے آ زادی دلائی جا ئے۔ ریڈیو اور پی ٹی وی چینل مظفر آباد کو ہر لحاظ سے زندہ اور فعل بنا دیا جا ئے اور دیکھا جا ئے کہ ان کے مقا بلے میں کیوں اور کیسے سرینگر جموں ریڈیو سٹیشن اور دوردرشن سرینگر وسیع بنیاد پر آگے بڑھ چکے ہیں اور تحریک آزادی اور حریت پسندوں کا میدان تنگ کر نے میں سر گرم ہیں۔
Political will not rhetoric needed for Freedom—Farooq Rehmani
He said that the Government and the opposition of the AJK, as running the Base-Camp of the State for freedom have much more responsibilities than others to accomplish the incomplete task of their founding fathers for freedom. They should follow the path shown by the founders of the Azad Kashmir in 1947, do some solid work without tall claims to change the receding
Muhammad Farooq Rehmani urged upon the media domain of the Azad Kashmir to focus on the freedom struggle and reuniting of the State, pointing out that some news- papers print banner lines of the statements of politicians without any relevance or contribution to the Kashmir cause or to State's prosperity." He said that if the AJK authorities wanted to foil India's media war against freedom- struggle, they must infuse new blood in the Azad Kashmir Radio Station and AJK P TV in Muzaffarabad giving them creative role and leading position to gain public trust and confidence. Currently the AJK Radio Station and the Muzaffarabad PTV Channel were like dead leaves and people were expecting their burial any time. Therefore it was in the interest of AJK as well as Pakistan to make the R stations, and TV channels dynamic institutions and look how the Srinagar Radio station and Srinagar Channel of Door Darshan worked in Kashmir against the cause of the Kashmiris. "The rulers of AJK must understand that this part of Kashmir has no meaning without Jammu and Kashmir and its struggle for the freedom of the State," he concluded.

Addressing Human Rights Question is of Paramount importance – Farooq Rehmani
Islamabad, 12 Mar, 2012: The Chairman Jammu and Kashmir People's Freedom League Muhammad Farooq Rehmani has cautioned world against neglecting Kashmir's basic issue of political destiny and human rights tragedy that has seen much human blood spilt and honor of women robbed for demanding the fulfillment of the political promises and implementation of relevant UN resolutions adopted during the last 64 years of uncertainty. "All talk to encourage trac-2 or trade between Pakistan and India via LOC or directly after removing the negative list without abolishing the Indian inhuman laws and ending gross human rights abuses by the Indian troops and paratroopers is doomed to end in fiasco", he warned. He said notwithstanding newly inked trade protocols between the two Governments Kashmir would continue to remain strictly a political question of the future of a nation that has put everything at stake to reach its goal through the internationally recognized right of self-determination.
He said that despite bilateral Pakistan-India talks, equally important was the participation of the Kashmiris in the process of resolution of the core issue. The international community must take into account the fall out of human rights violations on the future of talks and on regional peace and the world must never shirk their responsibilities vis-a-vis Kashmir. He said inhuman laws and the persistence of brutal methods of suppression terribly hinder the resolution of Kashmir dispute. "India has always paid deaf ear to it and believes in war of attrition against the present generation of the Kashmiris affecting adversely on the sub-continent's peace and progress", he remarked.
Muhammad Farooq Rehmani said that since India had no moral and political grip over the land and people of Kashmir, therefore, it had taken recourse to stifling of the press, media and every other mode of communication to hide killings from the free world, foster army/police operations, and suppress protests and opposition in Kashmir. "Parliamentarians, jurists, media and business men, ex-service men ,and Government and non-Government personnel of Pakistan and India including some politicians of AJK and a faction of APHC have been holding talks on Kashmir for the past several years, but they have not been able to change the military mind-set of Delhi on Kashmir; and stop human rights violations except to start trade and connect immaterial things to the basic question of Kashmir," he opined and further emphasized on the genuine leadership of the Kashmiris, "to sit together to deliberate on the current scenario and draw their own line of action in the best interest of the long suffering people of Jammu and Kashmir.
