Sir,
It was interesting to read in ‘Tales of Travesty’ by Dr. Jitendra Singh that a senior NC leader has accused Army and IB of trying to engineer a clandestine plan “secede so called Azad Kashmir from Pakistan”. It proves that such a plan exists. No timings could be better than this to take it to logical end. Pakistan has defied all norms of propriety in dealing with a peace loving neighbour. Ruling NC welcomed UN arbitration on Kashmir and allegedly halted Indian Army where it is today while it was chasing the invaders by which 1/3rd of J&K is under Pakistan. Dr. Jitendra’s comment that idea does not deserve any response because it is absurd raises a question; ‘why not’ when all other options have gone down the drain.
I am not sure about the army but know that defence analysts have started pondering over this idea after Rehman Malik’s derogatory remarks in Delhi, beheading of Indian soldiers and calling Kashmir as biggest threat to the world peace. And who can implement the plan better than the army & IB which are overseeing POK from the LoC. Pak has bled India a lot. Is their blood thicker than ours? Having POK as buffer state / zone is doing the rounds in India. Hence disclosure by NC leader certainly deserves response. Let us be intellectually offensive now considering security scenario after NATO pull out form Afghanistan rather than be at the receiving end all the times.
Your etc…….
