ASKPC cautions GoI against fresh bid of KSCAN

Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, May 31: Cautioning the Government of India and the political planners, Advocate Ravinder Raina, president ASKPC stated that a fresh narrative is being created by a new band of pseudo-academicians, regarding the Domicile rules in the Union Territory of J&K and shamelessly and brazenly painting it as an effort by the Indian Government to alter the demographic status of the UT viz-a-viz a particular community.
In a statement issued here today he said spurred by the meetings of KP/DPs/Valmiki’s/Gurkha’s/West Pak refugees and others with LG of J&K UT after framing domicile rules, anti-India activities and pro Kashmir rumblings have suddenly become visible at quarters which have no legal and constitutional standing.
In an open letter to the UN, this motley group of ideologically influenced anti-Indian diaspora supported by countries inimical to the vibrant Indian democracy and secularism, have recently asked the UN to intervene, as per their morbid visualization, in a forced demographic change being implemented by Government of India, he said. Surprisingly this propped up band of anti-intellectuals by the name of Kashmir Scholars Consultative and Action Network (KSCAN), comprises mostly of nondescript assistant professors and research scholars living or serving outside the country & forced to follow the opinion of their seniors.
ASKPC said that KSCAN has no Kashmir connection but has nonetheless roped in a few gullible youngsters, having Kashmiri names, but neither born nor living in J&K. Demanding free access, movement & expression for the Valley people, KSCAN is totally blind to the reality of lakhs of Kashmiri Muslim workers, traders, businessmen and students who migrated back from rest of India, due to ongoing pandemic.
This speaks volumes about the security, acceptability and free domicile rules, which Kashmiri Muslims are enjoying in rest of the states. However, the reverse of this was not possible and the same has been rectified by the domicile law, with the abrogation of Article 370 & 35A. Why should, non-Indians, make a hue & cry, if any Indian citizen within the country has a free access, irrespective of his religious and political convictions, asked advocate Raina.
Dr T.K. Bhat general secretary ASKPC castigating the foreign pseudo-intellectual mercenaries recalled the historical aberrations, right from 1931which led to KP exodus slowly & steadily, followed by Pakistan sponsored Tribal invasion of 1947, leading to the wide scale massacre of Hindus & Sikhs. This was followed by riots of 1967, 1986 and finally the biggest tragedy of the century happened in 1990with total forced exodus of KPs with ethnic cleansing & genocide, he added.
