Daily Diary (DD) - Day 119 of 2024

0901hrs:

Got up at 0630hrs this morning even though I woke just before 0500hrs. I had gone to sleep at c. 0100hrs.

....

I'm really worried about Luton Town Football Club's prospects for staying in the English Premier League beyond this season. A few weeks ago when they had 6 games to go (a possible 18 points) I assessed that they needed a minimum of 10 points to survive. With 3 games to go after yesterday they have accumulated zero points from those 3 games so far while damaging their goal difference by a further 9 goals. They now have a possible 9 points to get and their flaws in defence are being pounced on by other teams, almost at will. Their midfield is also not performing as it has been doing for most of the season, which puts extra pressure on their defence. Most of the players seem exhausted from the season so far and there is much to reflect on in retrospect. What could they have done differently over the season in terms of tactics as well as management of manpower (bringing in other players during all available transfer windows over the past year).

After that win against Bournemouth AFC at home a few weeks ago they were competing with 4 other teams to avoid relegation (namely Crystal Palace, Brentford, Everton & Nottingham Forest). Since then, bar Nottingham Forest all the other teams have had a winning streak and even Burnley - below Luton - have made a late dash to avoid relegation. While there were 5 teams competing to avoid 1 relegation spot a few weeks ago, now it seems there are just 3 teams trying to avoid 2 relegation spots. A lot has changed and Luton have a real uphill task. Something that they are not unfamiliar with, which they could still use to their advantage, at this very late stage of the season.

It's a pity that the local Asian community (with tens of thousands of 'Kashmiris' & 'Bengalis') have not made any inroads into the club despite over 4 decades of living in the club's midst. I suspect that would be more of a fault to be attributed to the local Asian community rather than the club itself, which doesn't discriminate with anybody from anywhere in the world. The local Asian community's participation could have provided much needed finance as well as manpower to a team that deserves to remain in the top flight; for its grit, determination and guile if not anything else.

Daily Diary (DD) - Day 78 of 2022

0956hrs:

A lot of wind, rain and thunder in the early hours of today, followed by a new calm when the sun came out.

....

Let us provide an introduction to Public Policy from one of the most proactive practitioners in the world:


....

AJK PUBLIC AGENCY NOTE 2034 - 19032022

Self determination is our present, not our future. 

If we cannot think and act in real time, we will fail.

We will also fail if we keep on shouting at the wrong people.

It took us almost 16 years to find the shortest and clearest route. The 'pushtani baashindey' (State Subjects) must give way to each other and stop fearing the change they've been shouting for, for the past 75 years.

An Urdu translation of the above note:

حق خودارادیت ہمارا حال ہے، مستقبل نہیں۔

اگر ہم  بر وقت سوچ نہیں سکے اور عمل نہیں کر سکے تو ہم ناکام ہو جائیں گئے۔

ہم نے اگر  غلط لوگوں پر چینخنے اور چلانے کی روش جاری رکھی تو  پھر بھی ناکام ہو جائیں گئے۔
واضح اور مختصر ترین راستہ ڈھونڈنے میں سولہ(16) سال لگے ہیں۔ پشتینی باشندہ ریاست کو ایک دوسرے کو راستہ دینا چاہئے اور گزشتہ پچتر (75) سالوں سے جس  تبدیلی کے لئے ہم چینخ و چلا  رہے ہیں اس تبدیلی سے ہم ڈرتے بھی ہیں

There was a great need and demand to speak in the following programme but internet issues created havoc. Mainly because many of my relations have come from the UK and thus a surge of internet activity was to blame:
 

The programme can also be watched on YouTube:


....

The following are 2 pieces of CCTV footage from Bury Park Luton UK where AJK PUBLIC AGENCY posters were in public, as with Shaheed Chowk (Martyr's Square) in Kotli until 10 March 2022. 

It is important to identify the culprit and more importantly why he did what he did. I need the assistance of our public in Luton...This incident happened on today's date (Sat. 19/03/2022):

Daily Diary (DD) - Day 45 of 2022

0901hrs:

Day 26 at Martyr's Square Kotli

We thought we'd launch the UK banner from here, while we wait for matters in Luton to pick up....


..........

Attention from other parts of AJK:


..........

Update 1600hrs: 

The 5 prospective members of the District Constitutional Conciliation Committee - Kotli...from a JKA nationalist perspective. 

Remember that the committee comprises of 10 members and the other 5 will be from the Pakistani nationalist perspective, comprising of 5 current or former MLAs of district Kotli. 

The following submitted to: SHO City Kotli via DFC Ijaz as follows, from Shaheed Chowk:


For those of you who can't read Urdu:

1) Toqeer Gilani - Kotli
2) Sher Nawaz Ali Advocate - Nikyaal
3) Quayyum Raja - Khuiratta
4) Secretary Iqbal - Charoi
5) Raja Haq Nawaz - Sehnsa

It should also be noted that all the above were nominated by the public, not me. If anybody disagrees with any of the above they can object and suggest an alternative. If so, I will put the relevant nominations to the public once more.

..........

Other activists and journalists - both at home and abroad - are zeroing in on Malik 
Waseem's issue:

 

If you can't read the text in the post above, here it is:

This is Malik Waseem behind bars: For the crime of protecting his home and family and refusing to forgo a claim to stay on land that he has been living on since 1949 in AJK. He had been evicted and was legally fighting to get the land back. He has a stay of order from the court to not disturb him but the police still evicted him.

It is another side of the Kashmir dispute where many Kashmiris are working in the AJK territory to see a change to various legislations and public policy that will give Kashmiris in AJK more license to be their own voice. They would have more say over the entire region and dialogue as to how they can move forward.

Malik Waseem is a third generation refugee from Kupwara in IOK. Ratan Singh was the original owner but was either killed or displaced in 1949 after forced migrations and killings by religious communities at the time. The land is described as"Evacuee Property." 

A search is underway by Malik's family, legal team and supporters for the descendants of the original owner but it is India in this case who have all the land records and upon being asked will not release them.

It seems to be a very sad state of affairs and an example of removing someone unfairly from land they have been living on since 1949 and now the local officials want to reclaim it and sell it for money. It is senseless to jail for someone for standing up for their rights in a just and fair way.

Malik Waseem and his family should surely be allowed to stay on that land. It does not seem right or fair to make them homeless.

Daily Diary (DD) - Day 41 of 2022

1017hrs:

Day 22 at Martyr's Square Kotli

Its a bright day and I will be going absolutely mute at 12 noon, just after I make a video appeal to the people of Luton and Kotli.

Meanwhile, here is my 'Public Will':

A Public Will

Life is dear to everybody, irrespective of its quality.

Some live with a purpose, some don't.

Some live long, some don't.

Some achieve their objectives, some don't.

I believe it is better to die active, rather than live passive.

Everybody has a set of priorities in life...

Selfishness and selflessness will always compete.

Some live for the moment, some live for eternity.

.....

I will go mute (silent) from 12 noon on the 10th of February 2022 at Martyr's Square (Shaheed Chowk) Kotli, I will continue to communicate with humankind in written form until and if I have to conduct a hunger strike till death. 

I have been living in a 'lawless territory' called AJK since April 2005.

I want to create a world-class system of governance here - from scratch - using peaceful, ethical, legal and democratic means.

If I don't receive timely support in health, wealth and time from my co-citizens - at home and in the diaspora - it would be criminal on my part to continue a passive existence. My conscience will remain restless and I would prefer to exit the honourable way.

Irrespective of how and when I leave this world, I do not want to be medically treated in any shape or form preceding my exit. No tablets, no injections, no insertions and no operations.

Dead or alive, I do not wish to leave the territory of AJK or JKA under any circumstances.

I wish to be buried right on the 'bloody line' ('Khooni-Lakeer') - equidistant between Indian and Pakistani troops - known as the Line of Control (LOC) or ceasefire line (CFL) that divides JKA. The nearest point from Shaheed Chowk Kotli - as the crow flies - is Dabsi in Nakyaal tehsil at c. 24 kilometres.


I wish for my grave to hoist 4 white flags at each corner for eternity, as a testament to my struggle for peace in this region.

Reference to my action-oriented research during my struggle here can be accessed via: ajkpublicagency.org or tanveerandkashmir.blogspot.com

I have been able to publicly document only about 10% of the work that I have done so far and some people have been given access to the remaining 90%, which I hope they will make public after my departure.

In conclusion, if people wish to speculate as to why I've taken these drastic measures, they should understand that our territory is being permanently divided between India and Pakistan imminently and both countries have already taken concrete steps in that direction. I wanted to avert that with a fool-proof strategy but I cannot do so - if an insufficient number of my co-citizens are willing to provide the necessary attention and devotion - required to successfully complete this task.

I do not want to live to hear this exclamation from the rest of the world:

"Where were you for 75 years?"

The End...

Here's the 'Public Will' in Urdu:

ایک عوامی وصیت

زندگی ہر ایک کو عزیز ہے، اس سے قطع نظر کے اس کا معیار کیا ہے۔

کچھ لوگ بامقصد جیتے ہیں اور کچھ بغیر مقصد کے جیتے ہیں۔

کچھ لمبا عرصہ جیتے ہیں، کچھ نہیں جی پاتے۔

کچھ اپنے مقصد حاصل کرنے میں کامیاب ہو جاتے ہیں اور کچھ ناکام ہو جاتے ہیں۔

میرا ایمان ہے کہ غیر متحرک فضول زندگی جینے سے بہتر ہے کہ متحرک موت قبول کر لے۔

ہر انسان کی زندگی میں اپنی اپنی ترجیحات ہوتی ہیں۔۔۔

خود غرضی اور خودداری کا ہمیشہ مقابلہ رہا ہے۔

کچھ لمحہ بھر جیتے ہیں، کچھ دائمی طور پہ جیتے ہیں۔

۔۔۔۔۔۔

میں 10 فروری 2022 رات 12 بجے کے بعد خاموش ہو جائوں گا، گوکہ میں تحریری طور پہ باقی انسانوں سے رابطہ میں رہوں گا اور اگر مجھے تا مرگ بھوک ہڑتال کرنے پڑے۔

میں اپریل 2005 سے آذاد جموں کشمیر میں رہ رہا ہوں جہاں مکمل لا قانونیت ہے۔

میں یہاں ، پر امن، اخلاقی، قانونی اور جمہوری طریقہ کو استعمال میں لاتے ہوئے مکمل طور پہ بین الاقوامی معیار کا حکومتی نظام لانے کی جدوجہد کر رہا ہوں

اگر میرے ہم وطن شہریوں سے، جو یہاں پر آباد ہیں یا بیرون ملک آباد ہیں، مجھے بر وقت  صحت،وسائل اور وقت اپنے  ہم وطنوں سے نہیں میسر ہوا تو پھر میرا فضول جینا مجرمانہ فعل ہے، میرا ضمیر بے تاب رہے
 گا اور میں ایک باعزت طریقے سے یہاں کوچ کرنے کو ہی ترجیح دوں گا۔

اس سے بالاتر کہ میں کس طرح 
اور کب اس دنیا کو چھوڑ جائوں، میں مرنے سے پہلے کسی طرح کا بھی طبی علاج کی سہولت نہیں لینا چاہوں گا، یعنی کوئی گولی، انجیکشن یا 
آپریشن یا کسی دوسرے طریقے سے میرے جسم میں کوئی چیز نہ ڈالی جائے اور نا ہی نکالی
 جائے،

زندہ یا مردہ، میں آذاد جموں کشمیر یا ریاست جموں کشمیر و متحدہ علاقہ جات کی دھرتی 
کسی طور پہ نہیں چھوڑنا چاہوں گا

میں ریاست جموں کشمیر و متحدہ علاقہ جات کو تقسیم کرنے والی خونی لکیر جس کو سیز فائر لائن یا لائن آف کنٹرول
 بھی کہا جاتا ہے، انڈیا اور پاکستان کے فوجوں کے عین 
درمیان دفن ہونا چاہوں گا۔

 شہید چوک کوٹلی سے عمودی
 لائن میں 24 کلومیٹر کے فاصلے پر تحصیل نکیال میں ڈبسی نزدیک ترین علاقہ ہے۔ اس خطے میں امن  کے لئے میری جدوجہد کی شہادت کے طور پر، میری خواہش ہو گی کہ میری قبر پر چار سفید جھنڈے لہرائے جائیں۔
میری تحقیق برائے عمل کا حوالہ
 مندرجہ ذیل لنک میں موجود ہے،

ajkpublicagency.org

میں اس وقت تک اپنے کام کا صرف 10٪  عوام کے سامنے

 لا پایا ہوں اور بقیہ 90٪ کام کے لئے کچھ لوگوں کو اپنے کام تک رسائی دی ہے، جس کی مجھے امید ہے کہ میرے مرنے کے بعد
 وہ اس بقیہ کام کو عوام کے سامنے لائیں گئے۔

نتیجے میں، اگر لوگ یہ قیاس کرنا چاہتے ہیں کہ اس طرح کہ ہنگامی اقدامات کیوں کرنا چاہتا ہوں تو ان کو اس بات کو سمجھنا ہو گا کہ اگلے چند ماہ میں انڈیا اور پاکستان پہلے سے ہی مستقل طور پہ جو ہماری دھرتی  تقسیم ہے، اس کے لئے مزید اقدامات کرنے جا رہے ہیں،

میں اس عمل کو روکنا چاہتا تھا ایک بھرپور حکمت عملی کے ذریعے سے لیکن میں نہیں کر سکا کیونکہ ایک غیر معقول تعداد میں میرے ہم وطن میری مدد کر رہے ہیں لیکن مطلوبہ تعداد جو اس کام کو مکمل کرنے چاہئے وہ ابھی نہیں ہے 

22% now - target 51%

میں دنیا سے یہ سننے کے لئے یہاں نہیں رہنا چاہتا ہوں کہ آپ 75 سال تک کہاں تھے؟

Here's my address to the Kotlians of Luton:


......

Update 1600hrs:

Syed Shafqat Gillani Sb has been supportive from the outset. He's watching my back like a true soldier of the soil:

 

For those of you who cannot read the Urdu text in the FB post above:

کوٹلی شہید چوک ۔۔۔۔ راجہ تنویر احمد خان
نے شہید چوک کوٹلی میں بھوک ہڑتال کا اعلان کر دیا
ٹھیک چار بجے
پہلے مرحلے میں خاموشی اختیار کرینگے
دوسرے مرحلے میں تامرگ بھوک ہڑتال شروع کر دینگے ۔
راجہ تنویر احمد کا کہنا ہے
ملک وسیم مظفرآباد کیس سے ثابت ہوتا ہے کہ آزاد کشمیر میں کوئی قانون نہیں ہے اور میں یہاں عالمی میعار کا نظام بنانے کے لیے جدوجہد کر رہا تھا
۔ ملک وسیم کو میرا ساتھ دینے کی سزا دی جا رہی ہے ۔۔اس حال میں میرا جینا بے مقصد ہے ۔۔۔۔۔

........

Update 2200hrs:

So, as anticipated....

The reason for putting Malik Waseem in jail is so that the administration - marshalled by the gentleman who was educated in public policy on British tax payer money - Commissioner Masood ur Rehman - can work on getting Malik Waseem's family to agree to a 'deal' to forego their claim to stay on (not own) Ratan Singh and Sardar Singh's land in Naluchi Muzaffarabad. 

These are all old tactics of greedy inhumane bureaucrats and associated land mafia to get their way. 

The AJK administration is getting desperate and will make further errors along this hard road of the 21st century.

They will not get away and will be punished as intimated before.

They think they've covered their tracks by putting the 'nuisance' away in jail until they get the deal they want.

End...

Here's an Urdu variation on the above update:

Daily Diary (DD) - Day 35 of 2022

2041hrs:

Day 16 at Martyr's Square - Kotli - AJK

The public reference and sovereignty....

The discussion with the UK government will have to be one step at a time. I have too much documentation for them to read, to really understand the concept of a neutral JKA. 

We will discuss sovereignty and the public reference (proving legally that veto power over the future sovereign status of this territory, namely Jammu Kashmir & Allied areas can only be exercised by those who qualify as State subjects (according to the original document of 20/04/1927). 

Any aspiring subject to citizen can disagree on above legal interpretation and I would be keen to obtain feedback from anybody in the world.

Daily Diary (DD) - Day 27 of 2022

2301hrs:

Day 08 at Martyr's Square - Kotli - AJK

It is here:


The land of the 2 Karamdads

A flu suddenly struck me yesterday. The air pollution of vehicles passing by is also beginning to take its toll on me. It would be good to conduct a measurement of it using some kind of cabin, which insulates itself from that pollution while measuring it.

There are no bins in Martyr's Square. How does it compare to Bury Park? One must also consider the amount of pounds that have flocked here since the 1950s at least. That foreign currency is gobbled up by the Pakistani currency almost immediately and gets manipulated by that sphere of influence.

We have put ourselves deep in the pits of global isolation when we had opportunity to transact with the rest of the world. 

But Pakistan has stood between us and India. Yes, but it has also stood between us and the rest of the world.

Isolation will get us nowhere and force our whole society to support the endemically corrupt internal governance of AJK.

We can break free but don't have the knowledge, expertise, open-minded democratic mindset or tolerance to do so.

Martyr's Square Kotli is an important venue in JKA. It has the most political freedom in the whole territory and can link up in days with Bury Park, Luton.
