Situation in Kashmir Going Downhill Since 2014, No Improvement After August 2019, Report

There has been no improvement in the overall security situation in the Kashmir post the abrogation of Article 370 in August 2019, in fact6 the situation has been deteriorating since 2014 when the Bhartiya Janta Party came into Power, says a human rights report released on Jammu Kashmir.

This 72-page report titled ‘Jammu and Kashmiri-The Impact of lockdowns on human rights (August 2019-July 2020)’  has prepared by the Forum for Human Rights in Jammu Kashmir and was released by Radha Kumar, who was a former Interlocutor on Kashmir in 2010 appointed by the Congress Government besides others.

The report says that the iron fist tactics adopted by the Central Government post- abrogation of Special status of Jammu Kashmir, in August  last year, has heightened the sense of anxiety among the youth.

“Prolonged lockdowns, arrests and detentions; restrictions on media and 4G mobile internet services, appear to have caused worrisome disquiet and seething youth anger,” the report points out.

It further says that there has been a systematic human rights violation in the region since August 5.

“This conclusion is arrived at by looking at the human rights provisions of the Indian, and Jammu Kashmir, constitutions and subsequent jurisprudence, as well as selected international agreements to which India is a party. The rights violated vary from those conferred under the right to life jurisprudence to the rights to health, education, work, freedom of expression and privacy.”
