00:00India has gone through 5 years from 2019 till now.
00:045 years before that, when there were no elections,
00:07this 10 year period of continuous systematic demographic changes
00:11was taking place in Kashmir.
00:12Did India benefit from it?
00:14I would like to say one thing.
00:15We talked about 10 years.
00:16When was the last census done?
00:18In 2011.
00:19Yes.
00:20They did not do the census on purpose
00:22because they gave domicile certificates to 32 lakh people.
00:28And the highest soldier-civilian ratio in modern warfare is in Occupied Kashmir.
00:3610 civilians and 1 soldier.
00:38Yes.
00:39How militarized everything is.
00:41And apart from that, you see,
00:43the effort that has been made,
00:45which has given power to the left-wing governor,
00:47who is their real boss,
00:48that the majority should be made minority.
00:53And you saw that they have increased the seats of Jammu.
00:56There are 43 seats and 47 in the valley.
00:59But you asked what India gained in 5 years.
01:03After the fight with China,
01:06because Amit Shah had declared that Aksai Chin is part of India.
01:10Like they claim on us too.
01:12One thing has happened.
01:13The election that has taken place,
01:15Modi has lost the election basically.
01:17From 303 seats, it has become 240.
01:19He has to rely on his own allies.
01:24And the third thing is that he has lost the region.
01:26Bangladesh, which was his biggest enemy,
01:28ally, proxy,
01:30that is over now.
01:32The Maldives themselves have removed them.
01:34Nepal and Sri Lanka are also independent.
01:36Pakistan is already standing against India's supremacy.
01:40So what has India gained?
01:41They have lost out.
01:42They are isolated in their own region.
01:45They are isolated in this region.
01:47In fact, we have more acceptance than India in the entire region.
01:52So the situation in Bangladesh is rapidly changing.
01:55That is a very positive thing.
01:57It is a very positive thing.
01:58It is a very good news.
01:59And it has reached my heart.
02:01On 11th September, Qaid-e-Azam was celebrated in Dhaka.
02:04Absolutely.
02:05What a big vindication.
02:06Absolutely.
02:07Now the question arises.
02:09On one hand, Article 370 and Article 35 have been abrogated.
02:12They have made Kashmir a part of them according to their own laws.
02:15Actually, Kashmir is not accepting it.
02:17Neither are the Kashmiris accepting it.
02:19But now the major Jamaat of India is saying that they will abolish the statehood of Kashmir.
02:24Isn't this a blow?
02:25All the work done by Modi in Kashmir.
02:28Isn't this a blow?
02:29Absolutely correct.
02:30And they are saying that it is correct.
02:33What was the position of Pakistan, the Kashmiri people and the international community?
02:37That the work done by Modi on 5th August, 2019
02:42was illegal, unconstitutional, un-democratic and against the will of the people.
02:49Absolutely.
02:50But it was being supported from within India in some circles.
02:54This is the first time that such a big party of India,
02:58the biggest party of the ruling party, the Congress Party,
03:01has rejected it.
03:03And their position is the same as that of the rest of the international community.
03:07That the Kashmiri people have been unjustly oppressed.
03:09It should be abolished.
03:11Rahul Gandhi has given another important statement.
03:14You must have seen it last week in Washington.
03:16What did he say?
03:17That the Sikh community of India faces an existential threat in India.
03:22That they are in danger of losing their existence in India.
03:26So it's not just the issue of the Muslim community.
03:29Sikhs, people of the Christian community,
03:32all this Hindutva that he has created, he has divided India.
03:37He has done the same on the eastern side of India.
03:39The same has happened in Kukiland.
03:41The same situation is going on there.
03:42So there is an existential crisis in many communities in India.
03:45There is no doubt about it.
03:46And systematically, as I have already urged,
03:49demographic change is taking place.
03:51But what is to be expected in the elections tomorrow?
03:55The elections will be named.
03:57First of all.
03:58Sham.
03:59It is not a general election.
04:01It is an illegal election.
04:02But since the Kashmiri people are so oppressed,
04:06so oppressed, so oppressed,
04:08he has said that this is an opportunity.
04:10By using the vote as a weapon,
04:14the Modi regime, RSS, BJP,
04:18which is the dominant army of India,
04:20against that we can make a statement.
04:23Right.
04:24So this is also a way for us to protest.
04:28Right.
04:29So it is a form of resistance that the Kashmiri people are doing.
04:35And they are doing it right.
04:36They are doing it right.
04:37Yes.
04:38Because they are resisting.
04:39What happened in the recent election?
04:40From where did Engineer Rashid win?
04:42He defeated him.
04:43His children won the election.
04:45He was in jail.
04:46Yes.
04:47And Mr. Rula also won.
04:48All those who are against his policies.
04:50So now, to show that Modi was wrong,
04:54it is okay if the Kashmiris come out and vote.
04:57But there are some Jamaats,
04:58which have been boycotting the electoral process
05:02or the system that was going on in Kashmir for a long time.
05:05Jamaat-e-Islami is one of them.
05:06In 1987, they were fighting for the last time.
05:09And now,
05:10That was also a Mohaz.
05:11M.U.F.
05:12Muslim Mutarda Mohaz.
05:14Now, their return to the electoral system,
05:17Mr. Musharraf,
05:18what is the significance of this?
05:20I think that Jamaat-e-Islami is going through a general revival.
05:23In Bangladesh also, you saw that Jamaat-e-Islami was banned.
05:26It has revived again.
05:27In Pakistan also.
05:28Yes.
05:29It is already very active here.
05:31Mr. Hafiz Naeem is their strong leader.
05:33And it has revived.
05:34And in Makbooz-e-Kashmir,
05:36there was a big role of Jamaat-e-Islami,
05:37Mr. Syed Ali Gilani and other people.
05:39And what was their role?
05:40With the area of Pakistan.
05:42It has always been seen as a party,
05:44Kashmir will become Pakistan.
05:46Kashmir will become Pakistan.
05:47And they have opposed it.
05:48They have supported India.
05:50So, I think that we welcome the return of Jamaat-e-Islami.
05:53It is a good role of theirs.
05:55And it is good that they have come into the field.
05:58So that the pro-Indian political forces are isolated.
06:01Right.
06:02Now, what are you expecting from tomorrow's situation, Mr. Mushahid?
06:05Because obviously,
06:06Modi will also try his best to sway the elections.
06:11Using his machinery.
06:13As you have rightly pointed out,
06:15that the ratio is 10 is to 1,
06:16between civilians and soldiers.
06:18Highest ratio in any militarized country.
06:21What are you seeing in tomorrow's security situation?
06:23People have their right to self-determination.
06:26We will talk about that later.
06:27But will they get the allowance to vote?
06:31There is another element to this.
06:33Elections are going on.
06:36And people will also participate in the voting.
06:40Because they are opposing the independence of India.
06:43But at the same time, there is also a struggle going on.
06:46You know, in Jammu,
06:48I would say, freedom-loving.
06:50Freedom fighters,
06:52who are indigenous.
06:54Remember that Kashmir's uprising is popular,
06:57spontaneous,
06:59widespread and indigenous.
07:01Don't make fun of it.
07:02Like in Palestine,
07:04they didn't accept the Israeli occupation.
07:07In the same way,
07:08the Kashmiris didn't accept it in the occupied Kashmir.
07:11So both the tracks are running.
07:12There is a struggle going on.
07:13And at the same time,
07:14there is also voting going on.
07:16And the methods of the occupying forces
07:18are very similar.
07:19Absolutely.
07:20Modi and Netanyahu are the ideological first cousins.
07:23Their method is the same.
07:25Both are on the basis of Islamophobia.
07:27Both want to make the majority a minority.
07:30And both are doing extreme types of oppression
07:33on their population.
07:34On Palestine, Israel.
07:35And in the occupied Kashmir, India.
07:38And I was just seeing a tweet.
07:40Today is the Eid-e-Mulad-un-Nabi.
07:42Ayatullah Khamenei.
07:44He said,
07:45We support the oppressed Muslims of India,
07:48Gaza and Myanmar.
07:50He also talked about Rohingya.
07:52He also talked about the occupied Kashmir.
07:57Absolutely.
07:58So there is an impact everywhere.
07:59So now this thing,
08:01as you pointed out,
08:02freedom fighters,
08:03there is a sudden surge in their activities.
08:06In the sudden surge,
08:07we see them using high-tech equipment.
08:10And the high-tech arms and ammunition,
08:12those arms and ammunition
08:13from Afghanistan to Iran.
08:15There could be certain ways.
08:18It is an arms bazaar.
08:19America itself,
08:20you have seen the debate
08:22between Kamala Harris and Trump.
08:25What did Trump say?
08:26He said,
08:2785 billion dollars worth of equipment
08:30America has left behind.
08:3285 billion dollars.
08:34It is an arms bazaar.
08:35Anybody can buy from the bazaar.
