LATEST REPORT – APRIL 2021
Engagement is the instrument that civilised communities have used to secure peace and settle disputes. India and Pakistan are no exception to this rule. However, in this or any other engagement the dividends should be shared in equity and no party should be dispossessed or traded into a quid pro quo.
LATEST STATEMENT – SEPTEMBER 2021
It is very difficult to work on the human rights regimes of a people distributed into three
administrations, families fractured on both sides of cease fire line (CFL) and people enduring the controls of five governments and five constitutional arrangements.
MORE ABOUT US

The NGO is playing a lead role in the understanding of the jurisprudence of the Kashmir case. It has successfully argued constitutional writ petitions in the superior courts of Azad Kashmir
Pakistan’s Kashmir Policy remained unimpressive from day one. In October 1947 GOP sent a Joint Secretary to negotiate with the GOJK. In June 2022 a Joint Secretary wrote to GOAJK to realign. People intervened. @CMShehbaz @SardarTanveerIK @farooq_pm @abasitpak1 @OfficialDGISPR
People are the instrument of change. The elected representatives in the Assembly remain under instructions of their voter. Use your right to monitor and intervene.
@khawaja38965571 @JKCHR @Kashmirstate @sahaafi @WahidKashir @iffatabbas24 @ahm3d711 @Kashur_Wanaan People of AJK are wise enough not befall into the trap of believing the self serving politicians who are more loyal than the king. The rights movement is genuine and is gaining momentum on the basis of popular grassroots support. @JKCHR @CellJklf @WahidKashir @942Ejaz @FAIZ1961
Government of India has to respect the UN SC Resolution 47 on the release of all political prisoners. Yasin Malik and other prisoners should be released and in the interim brought to Kashmir.
#ReleaseYasinMalik:He is part of solution in the Kashmir issue. Indian Govt must end Yasin Malik's illegal conviction & on going politically motivated prosecution.India cannot wish away UN recognised Kashmir issue/dispute. @mbachelet @JKCHR @Debbie_abrahams @CellJklf @JTainjk
