Punjab could be next theatre of war between nuclear-armed hostile neighbours: Dal Khalsa

October 4, 2016 | By Sikh Siyasat Bureau

Amritsar: Reiterating its principle viewpoint to make South East Asia a nuclear–free region, the Dal Khalsa strongly condemned the escalation of hostilities between the two nuclear-armed adversaries India and Pakistan.

Stating over the explosive situation in the subcontinent, party leaders Harpal Singh Cheema, H S Dhami and Kanwar Pal Singh urged the USA and the China to play pro-active role to settle down the Kashmir dispute in accordance with the aspirations of their people and diffuse the crisis between both the two South Asian powers.

They argued that in case, these two leading world powers having potential and influence over India & Pakistan choose to remain silent for whatever reasons, there are all probability that this region could become a theatre of war in the near future. Slamming the so-called Doval doctrine “for one tooth, the complete jaw” they said it was totally fraught with danger and contains high risk for all-out war.

Party leaders in a statement to media said the Indian state without resolving the Kashmir dispute wants peace with Pakistan, which was not possible.

They decried that the New Delhi wants peace in Kashmir by killing and blinding people who have come on streets against state-repression and aggression. The denial of justice, inequality, different sets of law for minorities and majority and state’s biased approach towards minorities are among reasons of unrest in the country, they observed.

They criticized the India’s central political parties especially BJP for generating the spirit of pseudo-nationalism for political reasons.

Of late, India conducted surgical strikes across the LOC claiming to avenge the Uri attack. However, the international media and independent observers have casted serious doubts over the so-called surgical strikes claimed by Indian government and its electronic media over-drenched by so-called patriotism. It has become a matter of guessing game at all levels what actually happened, number of casualties, whether the operation achieved any result or it proved counter-productive.

Asserting that the war was not in anybody’s interest, they said nobody gained from the 1965 and 1971 Indo-Pak wars. Rather it has further worsened the relations between both the arch rivals. We don’t see military aggression as a solution to any conflict. “The government should find out a solution to political conflicts to end the vicious cycle of violence”, they argued.

Expressing dismay over the mass evacuation of people of border districts in Punjab, they said the people of Punjab on both sides would be the worst sufferer in case both the countries go for all-out war, a fight to the finish.
