She warned that India’s actions could destabilize not only South Asia but the entire world.
Mushaal condemns India’s sham elections, urges global action. Mushaal Hussein Mullick, wife of imprisoned Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front Chairman Yasin Malik, has strongly condemned the Indian government for what she termed “Sham Elections” in Jammu and Kashmir.
Speaking to the media after a Kashmir Committe meeting, Mullick called on the international community to take action against India, which she described as a “rogue state” threatening regional peace.
During the meeting, which included prominent figures such as Kashmir Committee Chairman Qasim Noon and APHC Convenor Ghulam Mohammad Safi, Mullick emphasized that India’s attempts to legitimize its elections in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) were futile.
She referenced United National Security Council Resolution No.91, asserting that elections cannot replace UN-administered plebiscite.
Highlighting the absence of Kashmiri leadership due to imprisonment, Mullick questioned the legitimacy of any electoral process under such circumstances. “With the entire Kashmiri leadership in prison, who would accept this election?” she asked, pointing out that previous claims of high voter turnout were marred by intimidation and coercion.
Mullick criticized India’s recent efforts to showcase IIOJK to foreign diplomats as an attempt to mask the reality on the ground, comparing the situation to past propaganda tactics. She argued that if India sought genuine legitimacy, it should invite UN Election Observers and credible organizations like Amnesty International, rather than targeting them with legal intimidation.
She warned that India’s actions could destabilize not only South Asia but the entire world. “If the international community does not rein in this monster, it will jeopardize global peace,” she stated, drawing parallels to the unchecked aggression of Nazi Germany in the 1930s.
As tensions continue to escalate, Mullick’s call for action underscores the urgent need for international scrutiny of India’s actions in Kashmir.
