Pakistan’s teenage Nobel laureate Malala Yousafzai on Tuesday called on the United Nations (UN), the international community and Pakistan and India to work together to halt "the inhumanity and heartbreak" in India-held Kashmir (IHK).
"The Kashmiri people, like people everywhere, deserve their fundamental human rights... They should live free of fear and repression," Malala said.
"I call on the United Nations, the international community and India and Pakistan to work together with utmost urgency to right these wrongs, providing the people of Kashmir with the dignity, respect and freedom they deserve."
Over 70 people have been killed in IHK during clashes with Indian forces after the death of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani sparked protests across the region.
"Dozens of unarmed protesters have been killed and thousands wounded, including hundreds of people blinded by pellet guns used to put down demonstrations," she said, adding that due to the weeks-long curfew imposed in IHK, "many schools have been closed... keeping children away from their classrooms."
"I stand with the people of Kashmir," she said. "My 14 million Kashmiri sisters and brothers have always been close to my heart."

@Abhijeet This is not that simple. People going for elections in Kashmir to select their own people, so as to help them out with their daily lives, day to day matter, two separate things here. Going to local elections, selecting their own people doesn't in any way mean the people doesn't want the freedom from oppression, in fact they do it to gain more say for Kashmir.
This is like if a person on charges of sedition/asking for freedom is put into jail, will he try to start a hunger strike or kill himself, or will he try to keep on fighting from jail for his right to freedom, right for self determination, he will try to be stronger, makes the best use of his time in jail. It's about human suffering and not about a piece of land.

@Hindu - To be fair "the leaders of J&K" have been trying "a non violent freedom movement" for the last 70 years on and off. Violence is usually the last resort - and that too mostly pelting stones!

@Mahmood , if you see the evil it is the duty to speak out. Keeping
silent is a tacit approval. It is not indo-Pak dispute. Kashmiris are
fighting, dying and sacrificing for "azadi"(independence). They
are the main party to this dispute.

LETTER ADDRESSED TO JOHN KERRY BY KASHMIRIS DELIVERED TO US DEPARTMENT OF STATE, WASHINGTON, D.C., U.SA.
A peaceful and just resolution of the Kashmir dispute will
ensure stability and bring peace and prosperity in the South East Asia region.
It will also prevent catastrophic consequences for the world as a whole that
could follow a nuclear war between India and Pakistan. As the premier military
and economic power in the world that is a permanent member of the United
Nations Security Council, it is incumbent upon the United States of America to
exert its full diplomatic and political influence to prevent this unfortunate
outcome.
We thank you for your time and attention in this matter.

As the New York Times put it in its August 29, 2016 edition,
there is “an epidemic of 'Dead Eyes' in Kashmir as India uses pellet guns on
protesters.” This epidemic of ‘Dead Eyes’ will explode if the international
community turns a blind eye to the gross medieval brutality unleashed by the
Indian paramilitary forces against Kashmiri civilians.

Dear Kashmiris who want "freedom"...
Everybody wants freedom, and just to be "left alone"
But let's be realistic here. Do you think Kashmir can survive independently as a small land-locked country? One with unstable co-religionists on one side, India and China on the other two? How long will it take for Taliban or ISIS to grab power, and for executions to commence in the Srinagar stadium? Please don't delude yourselves, the closest you will get to independence is to become an extension of Pakistan, and that is something which India will not accept.
My heart is with Malala and Kashmiris. Acceptance of ground realities by all (including Indian establishment) will be a good step forward.
