Strongly rejecting the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation’s (OIC) suggestion of allowing an OIC fact-finding mission to Jammu and Kashmir to assess the human rights situation in the country, the Indian government on Friday said the grouping had no locus standi on such matters and termed suggestions to this effect by the Pakistani foreign minister as “propagandist”.
A spokesman for the Indian Ministry of External Affairs said “The OIC has no locus standi on matters concerning the internal affairs of India or the recent incidents on the LoC. We have already clarified that UNMOGIP has no relevance in regard to the latter.”
Backing Pakistan, the OIC had yesterday asked India to allow an OIC fact-finding mission, international rights groups and humanitarian organisations to visit Jammu and Kashmir to assess the rights situation.
A joint communique, adopted at an OIC summit that also welcomed Pakistan’s proposal for an investigation by the UN Military Observers Group for India and Pakistan (UNMOGIP) into recent ceasefire violations along the Line of Control (LoC).
It expressed “deep concern” over the ceasefire violations.
The communique had further called on India to undertake an “independent investigation into the discovery of mass graves and ensure free and fair trial of those responsible” for “heinous crimes“.
The Pakistani delegation to the summit was led by Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar who called for a probe into the ceasefire violations on the LoC by the OIC.
The move came in the wake of India’s rejection of Pakistan’s call for a probe by the UNMOGIP.
The OIC are a biggest bunch of hypocrites. The muslim world is on fire, they cannot do a damn thing about it. Instead they pontificate on human rights, and wanting the UN to pass resolutions to ban criticism of Islam. Now they are targetting indian held Kashmir, for violation of human rights. That is a bit rich from this bunch of thugs, when they are doing their best to extinguish non-muslim minorities in their own country, and disenfranchise them in every possible way.
I totally agree with u Max, the religious freedom situation in saudi arabia says it all. Muslims are apes.
