 Plate of POJK people is full problems, they have no interest in proxy politics and proxy struggle, Dr Shabir Choudhry 

UKPNP leader and President of Foreign Affairs Committee, Dr Shabir Choudhry said, ‘people of Pakistani Occupied Jammu and Kashmir are suffering from oppression, injustice and enormous social, political and economic problems; and they have no interest in proxy struggle and proxy politics purpose of which is to divert attention away from the local issues’. 

Dr Shabir Choudhry was referring to social media reports in which it was reported about 'sit in' Tetri Note on 22 July; and possible response of the POJK authorities. In this context it was alleged that Sardar Shaukat Kashmiri and ‘Dr Shabir Choudhry Group’ were behind this ‘sit in’ and promoting this cause. 

Dr Shabir Choudhry said, there is no such thing as ‘Dr Shabir Choudhry Group’. ‘We are all united under the leadership of Sardar Shaukat Ali Kashmiri; and we have no time to support proxy politics and the proxy struggle of those who in collusion with the Pakistani secret agencies have brought havoc in Kashmir’. 

UKPNP leaders further said, ‘We are pro people and pro peace party, and sincerely want to fight and promote the issues which directly concern local people. It is sad to note that whenever, local people start speaking about local problems of Pakistani exploitation, oppression, injustice electricity, shortage of clean water high prices and hold rallies and public meetings against occupiers, the JKLF groups divert attention from the local problems and hold rallies and sit ins near the LOC, as if solution to our problems lie in Srinagar’. 

There are serious human rights abuses taking place in various parts of POJK, including in Muzaffarabad and in Neelam Valley; and Wasim Malik of Muzaffarabad is so much humiliated and frustrated that he wants to go back to the Indian side of Kashmir from where his grandparents came, and yet champions of proxy war and proxy struggle can only see wrong doings taking place in Srinagar. 

Sadaqat Mughal Kashmiri has pointed to a number of wrongdoings by the local officers in the Neelam Valley, but the ‘proxy warriors’ have no courage to hold a demonstration there or hold a ‘sit in’ to support victims of the Neelam Valley. They have no courage to speak out in favour of Waseem Malik who because of ill treatment wants to go and live on the other side of the divide. END
