Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front

Dear colleagues,

Encouraged by your resolve, perseverance and self less dedication towards the freedom struggle , let us all make a solemn pledge to our selves that we will not allow at any cost to forego the sacrifices that our people have offered throughout in the history of occupation of our motherland .

We make this pledge as proud peoples of a nation that is rich in its culture, tradition, social fabric, natural resources, natural beauty and fertile land. A nation who have produced great people in every century from Nund Reshi to Gani Kashmiri to Dr Sir Mohammad Iqbal.to Shaheed Maqbool Bhat

We make this pledge as proud peoples of a nation that has never in its history discriminated people in our society on the basis of religion, cast and color. We have protected this culture in spite of numerous attempts by our occupiers to erase it by coercion.

We make this pledge as proud peoples of a nation who withstood and never gave in to the might of our oppressors; we stood and will stand steadfast in our resolve and determination to achieve freedom, dignity, peace with justice for our men and women.

We make this pledge as proud peoples of a nation that with the grace of God and our own resolve and struggle we shall not fail in our moral responsibilities that, we as a generation, owe to our future generation which is unborn.

Let no historian of present era be given an opportunity to write the names of likes, such as Sadiq from Bengal and Zaffer from Deccan.

Let our politicians not exploit our country for the sole benefit of themselves, if they do they are the parasite living on the flesh of others. Let them devote themselves as faithfull servants of our country.

Let our religious leaders work for inculcating the virtue , that lies in each individual of the society to make firm foundation for the progress of the nation on the basis of universal values of Islam

Let our journalist be like a guide to our nation , convinced of the truth that he or she writes.

Let our writers and poets write of those thoughts that shall build a usefull tomorrow and demolish what is dangerous to our society.

Amongst you who are full of youth , depends our tomorrow and the children of tomorrow shall spring from you, hold your head high in pride but not in proud, let humility reflect from your gestures and in conversation. If you do that, you shall be followed and you will stand out in the crowd.

Basis of JKLF Policy.

Our policy is based on The United Nations INTERNATIONAL COVENANT ON CIVIL AND POLITICAL RIGHTS (Part1 Art-1) and the UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS adopted on December 10, 1948 the General Assembly of the United Nations and proclaimed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights

The United Nations INTERNATIONAL COVENANT ON CIVIL AND POLITICAL RIGHTS which in its preamble states as follows.

Preamble

The States Parties to the present Covenant,

Considering that, in accordance with the principles proclaimed in the Charter of the United Nations, recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family is the foundation of freedom, justice and peace in the world,

Recognizing that these rights derive from the inherent dignity of the human person,

Recognizing that, in accordance with the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the ideal of free human beings enjoying civil and political freedom and freedom from fear and want can only be achieved if conditions are created whereby everyone may enjoy his civil and political rights, as well as his economic, social and cultural rights,

Realizing that the individual, having duties to other individuals and to the community to which he belongs, is under a responsibility to strive for the promotion and observance of the rights recognized in the present Covenant,

Agree upon the following articles:

Part 1

• Article 1
  1. All peoples have the right of self-determination. By virtue of that right they freely determine their political status and freely pursue their economic, social and cultural development.

  3. The States Parties to the present Covenant, including those having responsibility for the administration of Non-Self-Governing and Trust Territories, shall promote the realization of the right of self-determination, and shall respect that right, in conformity with the provisions of the Charter of the United Nations.”
