Daily Diary (DD) - Day 195 of 2026

0619hrs:

On this occasion, I've endured a 10 day gap in daily weblogging, whereas the world is witness that before this war was imposed on us, I enjoyed a 100% record this year, my best ever. 

Here's my latest note (written or rather completed yesterday):

The Women of #AJK and the UK Government's Apparent Inability to Distinguish between Motives of Conflict & Peace

Women of this territory have proved to be the choreographers of this exemplary peaceful #RightsMovementAJK , now into its 4th year. 

As Day 39 (13 July 2026) of this totally needless war imposed on AJK draws to a close, we are nowhere near a resolution. We will continue to indefinitely wait and see out this wanton aggression by the Pakistani State, courtesy of our women choreographing the design & pace of this movement. 

In AJK, we are all sick and tired of conflict repeatedly being imposed on us, since that deliberately hurried British colonial 'power transition' in 1947. Our women understand better than their men, on how to navigate us all out of this provocation and achieve a lasting peace, using purely peaceful means. 

Universally speaking, women lose more in conflict relative to men and benefit more from peace. Thus, their stakes are much higher by all measures. 

It is our women who are insisting that this war is a final miserable attempt by Pakistan to try and formally drag us into a debt infested, ungovernable and conflict addicted country. It is a war we cannot afford to lose, they repeatedly warn. 

When some of our menfolk decided to return home from the central sit-in protest at Eidgaah, in the village of Dreak, Rawalakot, Poonch a few days ago; their womenfolk were astonished to see them return home before resolution and demanded that they immediately return to Rawalakot. Adding that if their menfolk needed money, foodstuff, medicine or anything else for the public at large, then to state those needs clearly. Upon listing of those needs by the men, all the women of the said area immediately got together to raise the required funds and duly sent their menfolk back to Rawalakot! 

Many peaceful processions throughout AJK have been led by women in their thousands. It is the women of this territory that are standing up to the fake local political representatives, that have usurped public funds for their own private interests since 1947, by stopping them in their tracks as they farcically campaign for general elections, whilst the rest of AJK continues to go through the motions of an enforced communications & commercial lockdown. 

It is the women of this territory who are marshalling the 6 sit-in protests surrounding Rawalakot city evey afternoon. It is they who are ensuring our menfolk remain peaceful at all costs and wait this out. "The occupiers will tire much before us", they never fail to remind us. 

The United Kingdom's Legal Responsibilities

Let's all now focus on the United Kingdom, which according to various UK MPs has moral, historic & legal responsibility to resolve this issue. We reference Imran Hussain MP Bradford East & chair of All Parties Parliamentary Group on Kashmir (APPGK) along with 5 other MPs on 11 December 2025, as follows:

6 MPs (Richard Burgon, Tahir Ali, Imran Hussain, Jeremy Corbyn (background), ? & Ayoub Khan. 

Here's the transcription of what Imran Hussain said:

"The right of self-determination for the people of Kashmir cannot be ignored any longer. The UK government has a moral, historic & legal duty and we must move away from treating this as a bilateral issue and uphold our moral obligations and treat this as an international issue."

..

My question is:

When is the United Kingdom going to fulfill its legal responsibility?

If there ever was an opportune moment for the United Kingdom to fulfill its legal responsibility, it is now. In fact, it is already 39 days (and counting) late in responding appropriately. 

For us students of British colonial history, we totally understand why the United Kingdom has always been reluctant to make amends for facilitating the entry of Indian & Pakistani forces into Jammu & Kashmir in October 1947, in total contravention of its own 'power transition' document viz. Indian Independence Act passed by its own parliament on the 18th of July 1947.

Please do read this independent researcher's letter to the Lord Chief Justice of England & Wales on the 31st of March 2021, written from jail in Mirpur and yet to have received a response, despite ample attempts with documentary proof. 

We also intimately understand why the government of the United Kingdom is trying to equate the conflict addicted security framework of Pakistan with our exemplary peaceful movement - making basic demands just to survive - not to mention trying to come to terms with military aggression on a whole population. 

We also understand why the UK's present stance on this matter contradicts its own statements of the past, which hitherto correctly referenced the people of Jammu Kashmir as arbiters of their own future. The UK has decided to follow the footsteps of India & now Pakistan by describing this 5 June Pakistani invasion as an "internal matter". 

At this stage, we just wish to intimate that whatever positive contributions 'Western civilisation' has made to humanity over the past 5 centuries, is likely to be marred by this strategy to promote peace & diversity at home while participating in conflict and intolerance abroad. 

It is never prudent to break the golden rule of humanity, paraphrased as "Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you."

Our people of Jammu Kashmir & Allied (areas) or #JKA (for short) - amongst other significant contributions - have heavily invested in 2 world wars on Great Britain's behalf and they greatly contributed to addressing the shortage of manpower in the UK's factories post 2nd world war.

It should be noted that the ancestors of the people of #JKA have hosted a pre-eminent global centre of learning at Sharda - in today's Neelam Valley in AJK - many centuries & even millenia before anybody ever heard of Oxford or Cambridge. 

We cannot revive our heritage without agency in a perpetual conflict zone, with geographic rigidities more suited to the interests of empires of yesteryear. In such a structure, rather than providing #WaterManagement solutions to half the world's population from our territory, the very water that naturally flows downhill from here will increasingly become an unnecessary bone of contention for all the countries in our region. Not unlike the senseless conflict imposed by Pakistan on AJK, while the rest of the world pretends to be neutral spectators. 

A #Conflict2Peace strategy has been operating in this territory for 2 decades and cannot be derailed just because the United Kingdom seems to favour a subtle assist of Pakistan in emulating India viz. 5 August 2019 to 5 June 2026.

We think it is time that you understand that a country created for conflict viz. Pakistan is never going to understand the nuances of government; let alone what the terms inclusivity, meritocracy, accountability or transparency mean.

The State of Pakistan's engagement with #JK #JAAC (Jammu Kashmir Joint Awami Action Committee) over the past couple of years, has laid bare this reality. That a country of over 307,000 square miles of territory and a population amounting to possibly over 240 million - with at least 3 million government servants - cannot even produce 1 competent person to alleviate the genuine basic concerns of a territory merely 5,134 square miles in size, with barely half of its population of c. 5 to 6 million residing within its boundaries. 

What ostensibly escapes the UK's comprehension, is this war beginning on the 5th of June 2026, was launched precisely to pull a curtain over Pakistan's habitual incompetency in matters of governance. 

The United Kingdom should also be aware that at the outset of this latest imposed conflict, we intimated in both written & video broadcast form, that if the Pakistani State kills any of our people on this misadventure, it will be liable to pay £10 billion (UK pounds sterling) for each death. We all know how adept the Pakistanis are in managing their public finances. Many of us also remember the war indemnity the British Empire used to impose on their opponents. Except that this is a war where only one side (the invading side) is armed to the teeth against an exemplary peaceful population. The level of compensation must also be appropriate, in order to avert future conflict in this region. 

Having written all that we have, we are not fixated with the incompetency of our neighbours or their well-wishers elsewhere. We are deeply focused on achieving a lasting peace through peaceful means, which our neighbours and the rest of the world have failed to deliver to our region since 1947, despite depriving us of such agency. 

We began writing regularly to the UK government on the 3rd of June 2026 (2 days before this latest invasion) and we tried to approach the 11 or so UK MPs of AJK origin - as early as October of 2025 - to engage them in our #Conflict2PeaceStrategyJKA , knowing full well that the Pakistani State was inevitably preparing to launch its final attack on our identity and territory. 

As the United Kingdom continues to show unwillingness to play a positive role in resolving this unnecessary conflict and has also ignored our repeated requests to send those 11 UK MPs of AJK origin to our territory - to play a conclusive mediating role - we will no longer hesitate to canvass UK citizens to effect a UK wide lockdown, anytime after the 18th of July 2026, which would effectively be Day 44 of the lockdown imposed on us by Pakistan. 

While this writer was living in the United Kingdom and also subsequently during his 21 year long uninterrupted return to his motherland, he has heard and read notable British elders opining that many of the ill-conceived decisions made by Colonial Britain throughout the world, will rebound and inevitably affect the United Kingdom at home. 

This is not what we want and we certainly never intend to inconvenience the peace and justice loving people of the United Kingdom. However, when our peaceful aims & objectives to reverse enduring colonial policy - that promotes conflict, division, hatred & ignorance - is being ignored by the UK government: we have no option but to exercise all possible peaceful means available to us, to ensure you - the United Kingdom - fulfil your legal responsibilities to resolve this totally unnecessary & meaningless conflict, which is taking our people's lives almost on a daily basis, since the 5th of June 2026.

We will end with a short video clip of former prime minister of AJK Raja Farooq Haider from the 22nd of October 2025, which accurately describes the absence of governance in AJK:

Former prime minister of AJK Raja Farooq Haider

Here's a Roman Urdu transcription of what he said, followed by an English translation:

Is baat ko maan lena chahiye, ke logo ne is nizaam ko mustarad kar diya. 

Us nizaam ka me bhi hissa hoo, aur hum jo 53 log hain, ye bhi hissa hain us ke. 

Hamaari aala adalatey us ka hissa hain, hamaari bureaucracy us ka hissa hain, hamaari awaam is ka hissa hain saarey ka. 

To logo ne mustarad kar diya. 

Aur ye saara ye nahi tha ke Mir Sahaab (Shaukat Nawaz Mir) ya Umar Nazir ke kehne par...log tang aye huwey hain is saarey.....

Yaha merit ka qatal aam hay, yaha sifaarish ka culture hay, yaha par mera matlab hay badintezaami hay....theek hay...

Yaha Muzaffarabad dar ul khilaafa me na wazir e azam bait tha hay, na wuzra bait they hain, na aur log bait they hain. 

To us ka nateeja yahi nikalna tha! 

Jab logo ki daadrasi na ho, un ke maamlaat ko sanjeedgi se na liya jaey, to phir yahi hona tha! 

To ye nizaam.....

.. 

(English translation):

"We have to accept (this fact) that the people (of AJK) have rejected this system (of governance). 

I am a part of this system, as are all us 53 (members of the AJK Legislative Assembly). 

Our higher (including supreme) courts are a part (of this system of governance), as is our bureaucracy and the public are a part of this (system of governance) too. 

So the people have rejected this (system of governance). 

And it isn't the case that Mir Sahaab (in reference to Shaukat Nawaz Mir) or Umar Nazir have put these words into people's mouths, the people are fed up as it is, of this whole (system of governance)....

We have a massacre of meritocracy here, we have a culture of (personal) recommendations, what I mean is there is maladministration here, right! 

Here, in the capital Muzaffarabad the prime minister isn't (usually) present, neither are ministers (usually) present nor are other (relevant) people present here either. 

So, this (breakdown of the system or wholesale rejection by the people) is the only result we could have expected! 

When people's grievances are not addressed, when their issues are not taken seriously, then this is merely what we should have expected! 

So, this system (of governance)....

End of English translation..

Finally, we return to the women of AJK, who can be seen marching in a procession with white flags on the 13th of July 2026, from the central sit-in protest at Eidgaah in the village of Dreak, Rawalakot, Poonch AJK:

Daily Diary (DD) - Day 185 of 2026

0212hrs:

Well, we didn't know that the gap in daily blogging would ever stretch out to 25 days apart, since being released from Mirpur prison in 2021.

Anyway, let's get cracking.....on the 30th day of a needless and senseless war imposed on AJK and its people. 

....

I'll try and update you with everything that I have written during this 25 day gap, in chronological format:

.. 

Stop the Killing - Stop the Operation in #AJK

Is that too much for UK taxpayers of AJK origin to demand of their government, via their MPs? 

Timeline: 11:11am 10 June 2026 - Banjosa (on the outskirts of Rawalakot) 

Writer: Tanveer Ahmed - action-oriented independent public policy researcher, working un-interrupted in the territory of AJK since April 2005

#SecurityJKA

#PopularSovereignty

The people of AJK have their own 'security narrative'. They have learned the hard way that the only way to protect the life, wealth & honour of each other is to work out a fool proof strategy, that retrieves that responsibility for itself, as it has most at stake. They cannot rely on external security dependence, as partiality to any one country, power or bloc will immediately divide their population's loyalties, most significantly on a religious identity basis. That is a recipe for perpetual conflict. 

I repeat, our people have learned it the hard way. 

This ongoing 'Pakistani Military Operation' since the 5th of June 2026, to silence an actively peaceful grassroots mobilisation from within AJK for its 'Right to Rule' (Haq e Hukmrani) and 'Right of Ownership' (Haq e Malkiyat) over its own resources, is only delaying the inevitable, by compounding unnecessary misery & escalating loss of life. 

We've been under siege for 6 days (since 5 June 2026) and are gradually converging on the outskirts of Rawalakot city, since yesterday evening. 

Over 100,000 aspiring citizens of the public were marching in a convoy from Bhimber and Mirpur districts towards Kotli city yesterday afternoon, when the 2nd massacre in 6 days was instigated in this territory, with the targetting of innocents at Roli Gali Chowk in Kotli. 

By 10:11am (10 June 2026) at least 12 people have been killed in Kotli with the local DHQ (District Headquarter Hospital) being the centre of this 2nd massacre after Rawalakot CMH (Civil & Military Hospital), barely 48hrs earlier. 

A diversion or disruption to the massive convoy converging on Kotli yesterday was triggered and to avoid direct confrontation between the public and the legally identifiable occupier, #JAAC diverted their convoy via Gulpur towards Sehnsa & Sarsaawa to concentrate on their immediate destination Rawalakot. 

JKA PUBLIC AGENCY has arrived in Rawalakot to investigate what happened in the city on Day 3 & 4 of this 'Operation'. We'll try to resolve this before turning our attention to finding out what exactly happened in Kotli yesterday (9 June 2026). We hope diplomatic channels & peace builders everywhere will be able to avert a 3rd massacre. 

The compensation claim is also rising exponentially at £10 billion (UK pounds sterling) per each death of a local citizen. 

An end to pointlessly killing our people has got to be every sane person's priority. I appreciate our UK diaspora's efforts and in turn the representation of our concerns in the UK Parliament. We also acknowledge the role of all peace builders and activists for a transparent rules-based order. 

There is a British High Commission barely 100 kilometres from Rawalakot. We - the public of AJK - cannot comprehend the UK being unsuccessful in explaining to Pakistan, the consequences of this aggression on AJK's UK diaspora and the region's peace. 

You cannot defeat the will of a people where every household in the territory is involved and hundreds of thousands are connected to a peacefully mobilised convoy, intent on stopping a clear attack on their civil liberties, as they are very clear that if they don't take a stand now, they will be relegated further down the chain of 'ownership' over their territory and resources. Inevitably too precious to surrender. 

We are receiving regular statements from bereaved families that Pakistani security operatives in the territory are trying to control custody over our dead, as they want to use them as a blackmailing tool to force family members of those martyred to sign a written confession, that their loved ones were terrorists before the family can reclaim their bodies. In addition, many bodies are missing too. 

#JK #JAAC has led a very peaceful, fair, level-playing field set of aspirations and public demands. It most significantly won at the table, within the constitutional constraints influenced by British colonial legacy. 

JAAC and the public at large cannot surrender their just & naturally evolving indigenous struggle, as the sacrifices given so far have been so pure & innocent. 

Let's all assist in rolling back this unnecessary 'Operation' that will ultimately lead us all back to the same table, where everything needs to clarified. 

JKA PUBLIC AGENCY Note: #E105410062026

....

The largest convoy of many convoys from every direction converging on Rawalakot has reached the outskirts of Khaigalla. 

The Pakistani army has been dropping commando units at various helipads in the area since this morning. 

Aerial attacks on the hundreds of thousands of people converging on Rawalakot are also an imminent threat. 

1) You lost the battles of narratives. 

2) You lost at the negotiation table. 

3) You've lost global public opinion 

4) You will also lose the war imposed on our territory. Masses of the public maintaining a peaceful stand will defeat every armed military tactic you try. 

You cannot defeat every household here. 

Update: 1:08pm 10 June 2026

By Tanveer Ahmed, on the outskirts of Rawalakot.

....

We are at a standstill in Rawalakot while shelling has raged for most of the day in Kotli. Further casualties are very likely there but like the 2 massacres already committed, it will take independent & thorough research to get close to the actual figure of casualties since the 5th of June to date. 

As of the last few hours, the largest convoy remains static just short of Khaigalla while Rawalakot remains under curfew. A senior political representative hosting the public in Rawalakot is confident that the curfew will be lifted imminently without further loss of life. 

"The public need to be gathered in one place in Rawalakot, in order to conduct a peaceful assembly and open inter public dialogue (androoni mukaalima) to chart out a way forward for the public," he said on condition of anonymity. 

Lifting the curfew peacefully is step one.

Peace in childhood - Eidgaah - Dreak - Rawalakot - Poonch - AJK at 0930hrs on Monday 15 June 2026 - 11 days into an unnecessarily imposed war by Pakistan, after losing at the negotiating table 7 days earlier.

Update: 1230hrs on 21 June 2026 (Eidgaah, Dreak, Rawalakot, Poonch) 

Genocide Alert in AJK!!!!

We - JKA PUBLIC AGENCY - have strong grounds to believe that the State of Pakistan, given its failed attempt over 17 days to emulate India's action of '5 Aug 2019' - beginning on '5 June 2026' - is now sending signals through delegations of Kashmiri journalists working in Pakistan & other sources, that it will commit large scale atrocities to wipe out an exemplary peaceful movement worthy of global scrutiny viz.

#RightsMovementAJK #JAAC

It is under these conditions that JAAC has asked us to communicate the following? publi stance to UK MPs of AJK origin at the earliest:

..

Jammu Kashmir Joint Awami Action Committee (JK JAAC) stands on one condition and one condition alone: that the resolution to the invasion of AJK by Pakistan on the 5th of June 2026, necessitates UK MPs of AJK origin to mediate between the people of AJK and the state of Pakistan, for a practical contemporary solution, born out of British colonial legacy.

If they do not do so, the public of AJK & its diaspora will hold UK MPs of AJK origin responsible for the death and destruction that is happening here on a daily basis, which is likely to intensify imminently.

We are merely asking you to take your fair share of responsibility for a matter that directly affects over 1.5 million people in the UK, to say the least.

Update: The following note was written at 2124hrs on 23 June 2026 (AJK time)....

The People's Authority in Azad Jammu & Kashmir (AJK) 

In a land hell bent on establishing peace through peaceful means and reviving a globally pre-eminent knowledge-based civilisation

Precursor to a genuine people's government.

Public Policy Subjects:

1) Security

2) Governance

3) Economy

4) Culture

The Pakistani State has lost every ounce of reasoning to remain in AJK.

All its presumptions to administer this territory since 1947 have lost their practical value.

It violated its first agreement with any country in the world (standstill agreement with J & K) soon after its birth as a British dominion in 1947.

It violated its latest agreement with Jammu Kashmir Joint Awami Action Committee (JK JAAC) signed on the 4th of October 2025, by ordering another invasion on the 5th of June 2026.

Historically, it also failed to conform to the 'United Nations Conflict Resolution Framework' by side-stepping repeated suggestions to demilitarise from AJK & Gilgit Baltistan (GB).

Overall, the failure of both India & Pakistan to demilitarise broke the sequence of steps required for conflict resolution by the UN framework viz.

Ceasefire > Demilitarisation > Plebiscite

Instead, both countries (India & Pakistan) have gradually rendered the people of the territory as inconsequential; using a myriad of legal, constitutional, political, economic, social & military measures.

On the 5th of June 2026, after years of anticipation from all quarters - including the people of AJK - Pakistan finally took the plunge of emulating India's '5 August 2019' brutal set of actions to integrate their respectively administrated territories into their countries. Thereby, in both their estimations they would be paving the way for an international border replacing the 'Line of Control' (LOC), or what was originally described as a 'Ceasefire Line' (CFL).

Both have broken all pledges, promises and indeed international law by taking these steps.

Our People's Authority in AJK is a working indigenous framework to transition from a colonially structured system of governance, - that eventually proved a failure in complying with the very laws it ostensibly created - to control the very unarmed people it is now at war with.

#RightsMovementAJK

#JAAC

Independent research over 21 years in general and a recent survey (last month) of 8 (out of a total of 10) districts in particular, has confirmed that there is practically no such government service that the public of AJK relies on for its day to day needs. Every need is addressed either through our diaspora or through self initiation (viz, health, education, law & order, employment etc.).

Under the command of JK JAAC, we have completed almost 19 days of a complete internet shutdown & an extremely weak cellular phone network, followed by a commercial lockdown, where even basic foodstuffs & medicine are not being allowed into the territory by the State of Pakistan.

In such circumstances, we cannot even accurately count our dead, missing, injured, arrested, forced confessions, the number of raids on homes & harassment of family members, let alone damage to property perpetrated by forces ushered into our territory from Pakistan and by Pakistan on the 5th of June 2026. Evidence will also soon emerge, that many of these 'Pakistani Rangers' do not even seem to be part of a disciplined force, rather they are acting more as 'pay as you go' mercenaries motivated by war booty. This independent researcher has logged over 200 incidents of human rights violations so far and the list will definitely cross the 2,000 barrier once research is complete. It is of course increasing on a daily basis.

The Pakistani State is repeatedly sending messages through various intermediaries to the 6 peaceful sit-in protests surrounding Rawalakot city since 10 June 2026, that we - the Pakistani military for all intents & purposes - always get our way and that there is no scope for any kind of negotiations or entertainment of public demands. "Just retreat back to your homes, beg us for forgiveness (for demanding your basic rights & daring to defeat us at the negotiating table) and hope for the best in terms of restoration of peace & normalcy", has become a familiar phrase being aggressively rammed into the public of AJK at large.

Even basic foodstuffs from Mirpur division are being prevented from reaching the central hub of sit-in protests at Eidgaah in Dreak, Rawalakot, Poonch. Many truck drivers are being arrested & tortured for carrying out their humanitarian duties. 

In such a crisis and while JAAC awaits the arrival of UK MPs of AJK origin to come & sit with all core members of the committee in Rawalakot, terms & conditions for mediation to resolve this freshly imposed conflict cannot be set and neither will 90% of the public of AJK (including it's diaspora) ever allow the Pakistani military to play 'God' with the territory of AJK or its people.

JKA PUBLIC AGENCY Note: #E212423062026

Update: Written at 0144hrs on 4 July 2026 (AJK time)....

Summary (Day 30) 

Summary thus far (Day 30) of this needless invasion of AJK by the State of Pakistan on the 5th of June 2026.

It became clear by the 14th of June (10th day of the invasion) that imposing a military solution to silence 90% of AJK's population was impractical. The 2 massacres at Rawalakot (7 June) and Kotli (9 June) emboldened the local population to dig deep into their own resources and take advantage of superior knowledge of their own terrain, to bore Pakistani forces into eventual submission, whenever they wish to admit to this reality. 

By arresting people and forcing them to make confessions against JAAC and in favour of the Pakistani army is vile enough. Arresting fathers, brothers and sons of public activists is an alternative low level form of trying to grab victory from the jaws of defeat. The Pakistani invading forces are even threatening to abduct the mothers, sisters and daughters of these public activists.

Trying to force shops in major cities to open while maintaining a communications blockade (frozen ATM machines) and getting politicians to campaign for general elections only adds to the farce. 

Diaspora Reflection of Local Aspirations

Our UK diaspora in particular (and elsewhere throughout the world) in general have complimented & synchronised well with mass public mobilisation inside AJK, despite a total communications & commercial blockade imposed by Pakistan, contrary to their avowed commitments to international law. 

Jammu Kashmir Joint Awami Action Committee (JK JAAC) has ridden through every storm and evolved to understand that it must now take a stance in line with the legal & constitutional entitlements of the people of the territory, rather than continuing to insist on operating within a colonial constitutional structure that the colonials themselves (Pakistan and by logical extension the United Kingdom & India) do not abide by. Repeatedly making reasonable demands to the colonial structure only invites naked aggression rather than sincere intent to accommodate those demands, generated en masse by the public of AJK. 

Insisting on UK MPs of AJK origin to travel to the sit-in protest in Rawalakot to mediate between JAAC and the State of Pakistan, is a step in that direction. 

Reference: 'Genocide Alert in AJK'

Written at 1230hrs on 21 June 2026

It is also important that the AJK diaspora in the UK concentrate on conducting a sit-in protest in Parliament Square London SW1, to remind the United Kingdom of its share of responsibility: taking account of its historical, legal & moral implications, as cited by UK MPs on a regular basis. 

Those who can't make it to the 'mother of parliaments' in London, should consider conducting sit-in protests outside all relevant City and Town Halls in the country. 

If this deadlock continues for a further 2 weeks our diaspora in the UK should consider canvassing for a lockdown of the United Kingdom for a day, given that we would have endured 44 days of a total lock down in AJK by then. 

Our diaspora would also be well advised to avoid the Pakistani High Commission, as it doesn't have any executive significance to play any role in resolving this deadlock. Pakistan may be argued to be an independent country despite its financial reliance on many a global player but it is most certain that the Pakistani army doesn't face any risk of accountability for its actions inside its own country. As it was the UK that facilitated the entry of Pakistan into Jammu & Kashmir in 1947 and subsequently shielded it from the United Nations framework that suggested it withdraw its forces from the territory of AJK (and GB), it is more practical and most certainly less bloody to engage with UK MPs of AJK origin, who have stakes in this territory. 

Contemplating the end of Pakistan's false assumption to take & maintain control of Defence, Communications, Currency & Foreign Affairs in AJK since 1947, is a public policy imperative here. What we have witnessed since the 5th of June 2026 has given us ample evidence to present to UK MPs of AJK origin in particular and the world in general. 

Delaying the inevitable restoration of the 'Right to Rule' (Haq e Hukmrani) of the people of AJK, especially when their 'Authority' has emerged repeatedly since May 2023, would be senseless for all parties concerned.

Note 4 to the UK Government

#WhiteFlags

#Conflict2PeaceStrategyJKA

Thank you for keeping engaged on this existential matter and we hope you can continue playing a critical role in real-time peacebuilding. 

There will be hundreds of thousands of people converging on Rawalakot today (9 June 2026). 

We wish to convey high appreciation to our UK diaspora in particular, for their untiring efforts in engaging their MPs. A special mention for Imran Hussain MP (Bradford East), the chair of APPGK (All Parties Parliamentary Group on Kashmir) for his timely activism. 

There has been productive communication between our diaspora & UK MPs since this war began on the 5th of June 2026.

We welcome their public statements, concerns and questions to their parliament & foreign Office (FCDO) in London. 

Those MPs originating from AJK are repeatedly and daily urged to prepare for a fact-finding mission to the territory - as soon as possible - with a very clear aim to explore possibilities for a sustainable #Peace . 

Matters have escalated with the Rawalakot Massacre on the 7th and 8th of June 2026, outside CMH (Civil & Military Hospital). 

We repeat that we cannot afford even one further death, given that hundreds of thousands of us have been killed or died as a direct consequence of imposed conflict, since colonial power transition in 1947.

The Pakistani State was given prior warning to ensure not a single death occurs, in this ostensibly self-conceived 'operation' on civil liberties in the territory of AJK. 

£10 billion (UK pounds sterling) per citizen was the figure publicly announced in advance. 

We are still counting our dead and prevention of civil society from accessing the crime scene is a continuation of identified behaviour to maintain a traditionally opaque & ambiguous approach, whilst using the cover of darkness for the vast bulk of their operations since this 'Operation' began on the 5th of June 2026.

They can still retreat with some scope for dignity back to their country and commit to a dialogue framework, internally & indigenously created in AJK, while based on 21 years of un-interrupted on-the-ground independent research.

The Pakistani State was warned in advance that if on this occasion you enter our territory and kill any of our co-citizens you will have to pay £10 billion (UK pounds) per death. We haven't yet begun counting our dead and injured but we are in the process and you will be invoiced accordingly. 

You will witness hundreds of thousands of people converging on #Rawalakot today and don't you dare create any obstacles for them. Use this time to make your escape if you can. We will defeat your occupation with #Peace not aggression as repeatedly displayed by you.

Daily Diary (DD) - Day 159 of 2026

0312hrs:

High Alert for all AJK citizens near & far:

Dozens of our civilians have been killed in Rawalakot. Dead bodies (corpses) are piling up outside Civil & Military Hospital (CMH) in the centre of the city. 

The public have retreated for the time being to regroup, while they wait for the AJK public from Muzaffarabad & Mirpur divisions to converge on the city in the morning. 

Pakistani Rangers are not letting anybody near the dead bodies and there is a clear danger that these bodies will disappear before the rest of AJK converges. 

We have tried to maintain communication with the UK Foreign Office while these killings were taking place. 

Heavily restricted communication and slow diplomatic formalities have proved fruitless in averting what will prove to have been absolutely needless killings. 

All this has happened despite an alert published at 0205hrs on 03/06/2026, at least 48 hours before this latest invasion of the territory of AJK.

A curfew has been enforced in Rawalakot....

The (Pakistani) Rangers have taken control of CMH (Civil & Military Hospital) Rawalakot. 

(Pakistani) Rangers personnel are climbing onto the roofs of (people's) homes and shooting the public directly in the head with sniper fire. 

Up to this point (in time) the numbers of (people) attaining martyrdom has (sharply) increased.

انتہائی افسوس کے ساتھ اطلاع دی جاتی ہے کہ راولاکوٹ میں تاریخ کا بدترین سانحہ رونما ہو چکا ہے

لوگو ہمارے شہدا بھی ہم سے چھینے جا رہے ہیں اتنا ظلم

With extreme regret we announce that a tragedy of historic proportions has occurred. 

Trucks covered with tarpaulin are moving towards Nala Bazaar (in Rawalakot). In which it is highly likely that our martyrs are going to (to be made to) disappear. 

Oh People! (Even) Our martyrs are being wrenched away from us! Such oppression!

It is sickening for me to mention - as an afterthought - that despite trying for many hours during the day and upto midnight last night, I just couldn't obtain enough signals to post an entry for yesterday's date viz. Day 158 of 2026. 

There is a communications blockade in our territory since about 2330hrs on the 5th of June 2026 (Day 156 of 2026) but where there is clear will, there is a way, yet I still fell short yesterday. 

I was effectively out on 157. However, possibly as many as 100 (or even more) of my co-citizens were needlessly killed in the late hours of yesterday and the early hours of this morning. 

This will prove to be a definitive watershed for our people. We will rise from this imposed tragedy and very very soon (I am writing these last few paragraphs at 0404hrs).

Daily Diary (DD) - Day 157 of 2026

1615hrs:

We are in a State of a desperately imposed war, foisted on us by our Muslim neighbour to the West, simply because it lost at the negotiation table with the Joint Awami Action Committee on the 30th of May 2026, barely a week ago. 

At least one of our co-citizens Sardar Shazaib Habeeb of Rawalakot (a close aide of Umar Nazir - core committee member) was killed last night, as he paid with his life for preventing Pakistani Rangers from arresting Umar Nazir. The latter is also injured although the public have moved him to a safe location. 

Unconfirmed reports of Pakistani Rangers also being killed in retaliation to this incident last night are also filtering through. Many arrests throughout AJK have been made overnight. The public throughout the territory is preparing for its own total lockdown of the territory, which should come in force by tomorrow 1000hrs at the latest. 

The following is our 3rd note to the UK government since that initial safety alert (alarm) at 0205hrs on the 3rd of June 2026:

The Might of Water

British MPs must be immediately sent to #AJK on a fact finding mission for peace. 

British MPs of #JKA origin to immediately visit AJK, under siege since the early hours of the 5th of June 2026, on a fact finding mission to understand a locally designed peace strategy for the region. 

People's lives and the ecology of the region matter most. What happens in this territory affects the lives of at least half the world's population.

To play an instrumental role in peace building, such an opportunity presents itself for the United Kingdom on the 6th of June 2026.

There is colonial legacy too which revives legal & constitutional angles to resolving the conflict, born out of power transition in 1947.

We wish for British parliamentarians of Jammu Kashmir & Allied (areas) origin to play an instrumental role in saving lives here, directly under attack from the immediate West of AJK.

Daily Diary (DD) - Day 156 of 2026

1152hrs:

Well, it is now confirmed that the 9 of June has arrived 4 days early! Earlier today, paramilitary forces from Pakistan have already begun entering our territory to destroy the prevailing peaceful atmosphere of dialogue and an election schedule has also been announced a short while ago, without fulfilling the conditions set by the Jammu Kashmir Joint Awami Action Committee on the 31st of March 2026.

ایک مستقل پُرامن ماحول کو بار بار پُر تشدد بنانے کی قیمت اب آج 5 جون 2026 سے 10 ارب (بلین) یو کے پاؤنڈز فی کس (فی شخص) ہوگئی ہے۔

کیا یہ قیمت پاکستان ادا کر سکتا ہے؟

اگر نہیں تو وہ کسی بھی شکل کے سیکیورٹی اہلکار - چاہے وہ 14 ہوں یا 14,000 - یہاں آزاد جموں و کشمیر کی دھرتی میں داخل کرانے سے گریز کرے

!

جہاں آپ کے دلائل ختم ہوتے ہیں وہاں آپ کو دباؤ ڈالنے کی اب اجازت نہیں دی جا سکتی۔

آپ کی 78 سال سے خودساختہ اور خود سے تفویض کی ہوئی اس دھرتی اور لوگ (بشمول آزاد جموں و کشمیر اور گلگت بلتستان) کی ذمہ داری اس 5 جون 2026 کو ہی ایک تاریخی مفروضے کے طور پر ماضی کا حصہ بن جائے گی۔

ہمیں ہمارے ہم وطن (جموں کشمیر اور متحدہ علاقہ جات کے شہری) جو آپ کی فوج اور ایجنسیز میں ڈیوٹی دیتے ہیں، ان کو آپ واپس کریں تاکہ ہم جائزہ لے سکیں کہ ان میں سے کتنے یہاں (اپنی اصل آئینی اور قانونی دھرتی) کے امن کو برقرار رکھ سکتے ہیں۔

....

From the earlier hours of this morning, it was confirmed that the Pakistanis are going ahead to disrupt the peace. Here's a note preceded by the government circular communication between the Inspector General of Police (A Pakistani) and the Chief Secretary (another Pakistani):

On the 4th of June 2026, a day after the #UK government was forewarned of imminent external aggression in #AJK , a circular appearing to be sent by the Inspector General of Police (a Pakistani) of AJK police, writing to the Chief Secretary (a Pakistani) heading the AJK government/administration (both remnants of a prevailing colonial structure), that 'we' (the coloniser) need 14,000 security personnel to be hurriedly ushered to AJK to maintain the 'peace'. 

This is in direct contradiction of what the AJK 'prime minister' (a local) has taken pains to repeatedly assure the public, that no force or coercion will be used to prevent peaceful mass public mobilisation in the territory. 

This is daylight planning to inject aggression into a locally sustained peaceful environment, practiced with resolve for 3 years - where 2 way dialogue 'mukaalima' is developing as a culture & strategy - to peacefully erase the cause of conflict in our territory.

Another needless reactionary spate of killings has to be averted!
