I will always remember Dr. Priya Ranjan not only as the Chairman of JK Monitor, but as a mentor, guide and elder brother whose kindness shaped my life and work. Write a tribute at JAMMU: Gaurav Gupta, BJP Spokesperson for Jammu and Kashmir UT, has strongly criticised the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) for issuing yet another biased and misleading statement on Jammu and Kashmir from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
In its latest statement, the OIC said, “The General Secretariat, in accordance with the relevant resolutions of the Islamic Summit and the Council of Foreign Ministers, reaffirms its unwavering and full support for the people of Jammu and Kashmir in their just struggle for their fundamental human rights, including their inalienable right to self-determination. It also urges India to respect the fundamental human rights of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.”
Responding to this, Gupta said that the OIC’s remarks are deeply uninformed and politically motivated, driven by Pakistan’s false narrative rather than facts. “It’s unfortunate that the OIC continues to act as Pakistan’s mouthpiece instead of recognizing the reality of a peaceful, democratic, and rapidly developing Jammu and Kashmir, which is an integral part of India,” he said.
He added that while the OIC keeps issuing statements against India, it remains completely silent on Pakistan’s grave human rights violations including the killing of Afghan cricketers by Pakistani forces, the terror attacks in Kabul, and the abductions and disappearances of Baloch citizens. “When Pakistani security forces opened fire on peaceful protesters in Muzaffarabad, Dheerkot, Rawalakot, and Mirpur killing at least ten civilians and injuring over a hundred the OIC didn’t even issue a single line of condemnation. That silence exposes its hypocrisy,” Gupta said.
Citing European writer and West Asia expert Michael Arizanti, Gupta referred to his article in the Times of Israel, where Arizanti criticised the OIC and Arab nations for ignoring Pakistan’s atrocities in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK). Arizanti wrote, “Why is the death of a Palestinian in Gaza a global headline, but the death of a Kashmiri Muslim in Muzaffarabad a footnote?” Gupta said this observation perfectly captures the double standards and moral blindness of those who pretend to care about human rights but ignore Pakistan’s state-sponsored violence against its own people.
Gupta further stated that Jammu and Kashmir has completely transformed under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, witnessing unprecedented growth in infrastructure, education, healthcare, tourism, and employment. “The people of Jammu and Kashmir today stand firmly with the Constitution of India, the Tricolor, and the vision of ‘Ek Bharat, Shreshtha Bharat’ not with those who seek to divide our nation through lies and propaganda," he said.
Concluding strongly, Gaurav Gupta said, "There is no dispute left in Jammu and Kashmir. The only issue that remains is for Pakistan to vacate its illegally occupied territories of PoJK and return them to India. The OIC should stop spreading falsehoods and instead speak about the real victims - the people suffering under Pakistan's military oppression. India's sovereignty over Jammu, Kashmir, and Ladakh is absolute, final, and non-negotiable. No amount of propaganda can ever alter this truth."
