| Y4PK condemns Ashok Koul’s reported misrepresentation of Delhi meet | |
Jammu, November 12 (Scoop News)-Youth 4 Panun Kashmir (Y4PK) strongly condemns Shri Ashok Koul’s reported remarks on the All Kashmiri Pandit Organisations Meet held in Delhi on 31 October 2026.
The Delhi Meet was convened to unite Kashmiri Pandit organisations on one collective mandate and challenge the persistent narrative, often echoed in government corridors, that the community has divergent voices on return and rehabilitation. Such a narrative only weakens and undermines our fundamental aspiration to reclaim our Separate Homeland under the 1991 Margdarshan Resolution*.
The participation of 38 organisations and their overwhelming endorsement of the Resolution reaffirmed the principle of ONE COMMUNITY • ONE MANDATE • ONE VOICE. The concluding consensus unequivocally supported a Separate Homeland with Union Territory status within Kashmir.
Y4PK categorically rejects Shri Koul’s reported assertion that the organisations proposed a review of the Margdarshan Resolution. An endorsement cannot be misrepresented as a review.
We also strongly object to the reported description of participating organisations as one-man or two-member bodies. Attendance by a few representatives does not determine an organisation’s membership, credibility or contribution. Organisations that have sustained the displaced community through decades of exile deserve respect, not ridicule or selective recognition.
Displacement cannot become grounds for exclusion, and political designation cannot substitute for community representation. No individual, political party or institution holds an exclusive right to speak for the Kashmiri Pandit community.
Y4PK therefore demands that Shri Ashok Koul:
1. Publicly correct his reported misrepresentation of the Delhi consensus.
2. Acknowledge the collective endorsement of the 1991 Margdarshan Resolution and Separate Homeland.
3. Substantiate or withdraw his reported remarks questioning the legitimacy of participating organisations.
4. Issue a public apology if the reported disparaging remarks are accurately attributed to him, or clarify his position if misreported.
Our commitment to Bharat does not mean silence on our legitimate political aspirations. The Homeland question demands an answer, not diversion through questioning the credibility of community organisations.
We have different organisations, but one historical claim, one foundational resolution and one collective aspiration — PANUN KASHMIR.
