@M_A_Thakur , “UNITED WE STAND” OR UNITED WE BLEED UNDER PAKISTAN?
Muzzammil Ayyub Thakur wants people in Pakistan-occupied Jammu & Kashmir to “cooperate with the State of Pakistan.”
He calls the crisis in “AJK” an administrative issue.
He promotes voices that acknowledge people’s concerns for two seconds and then quickly blame the protesters, condemn JAAC, praise Pakistan, thank Pakistan’s leadership, and shift the whole conversation away from the suffering of ordinary people.
What a convenient formula.
First, reduce a people’s uprising to an “administrative issue.”
Then ask the victims to cooperate with the same state crushing them.
Then call protesters “violent.”
Then praise Pakistan for raising Kashmir internationally.
Then pretend this is wisdom, balance and leadership.
No, Mr. Thakur.
This is not balance.
This is hypocrisy with a press-conference microphone.
People in PoJK are not on the streets because of a file missing in some government office.
They are protesting because they want basic rights.
They are protesting because they want affordable electricity.
They are protesting because they want subsidized flour.
They are protesting because they want jobs, dignity and representation.
They are protesting because their democratic voice is weakened.
They are protesting because election rights are being manipulated.
They are protesting because Islamabad calls them “Azad” while keeping them politically dependent.
And instead of standing with the people, you stand with the state narrative.
Instead of asking why people are being shot, arrested and silenced, you ask them to “cooperate.”
Cooperate with what?
Cooperate with bullets?
Cooperate with crackdowns?
Cooperate with internet shutdowns?
Cooperate with arrests?
Cooperate with sedition charges?
Cooperate with bounties on protest leaders?
Cooperate with a political system that denies locals genuine electoral dignity?
This is not activism.
This is obedience dressed up as strategy.
And then comes the grand slogan:
“United we stand, divided we fall.”
Beautiful line.
But united for what, Mr. Thakur?
▪︎ United to stay silent while civilians are killed?
▪︎ United to accept Pakistan’s control?
▪︎ United to let Islamabad decide the political future of PoJK?
▪︎ United to bury the election-rights issue?
▪︎ United to watch protest leaders be targeted?
▪︎ United to call victims “violent” while the state gets a free pass?
If unity means asking oppressed people to tolerate oppression, that is not unity.
That is surrender.
If unity means telling PoJK people to cooperate with the same state depriving them of rights, that is not leadership.
That is political servitude.
And the election issue exposes the whole fraud.
PoJK people are not only protesting over prices. They are also questioning a political structure where reserved seats for non-residents influence the legislature and weaken the democratic power of locals.
They are asking a simple question:
Why should people who live under the consequences have less control over their own political future?
Why should Islamabad’s system decide their representation while calling them “Azad”?
Why should locals be told to accept managed democracy and stay quiet?
But Mr. Thakur does not ask these questions.
Because these questions expose Pakistan.
Against India, he becomes loud within minutes.
▪︎ One local incident becomes “occupation.”
▪︎ One law-and-order issue becomes “genocide.”
▪︎ One administrative action becomes “war on Kashmiris.”
▪︎ One rumour becomes international propaganda.
But when Pakistan deprives PoJK people of basic rights, kills protesters, shuts down the internet, arrests activists and manipulates political representation suddenly he becomes calm, careful and diplomatic.
Against India, he speaks like a warrior.
Against Pakistan, he speaks like a government adviser.
That is the hypocrisy.
And now he retweets Ghulam Muhammad Safi, who acknowledges the “legitimate concerns” of the people only to quickly condemn JAAC’s so-called violence, warn against disorder, praise Pakistan’s efforts at the UN, and thank Pakistan’s Prime Minister and defence leadership.
▪︎ So the people are suffering — but Pakistan gets thanked?
▪︎ The protesters are bleeding — but JAAC gets blamed?
▪︎ The state uses force — but the victims are lectured on peace?
▪︎ Innocent people ask for rights — and the response is: cooperate with Pakistan?
What kind of human rights politics is this?
This is the old script:
▪︎》When Kashmiris protest against India — amplify them.
▪︎》When Kashmiris protest against Pakistan — discipline them.
▪︎》When India is involved — call it oppression.
▪︎》When Pakistan is involved — call it administration.
▪︎》When protesters are useful against India — call them resistance.
▪︎》When protesters expose Pakistan — call them violent.
▪︎》When the issue is India — demand international attention.
▪︎》When the issue is PoJK — ask people to calm down, cooperate and follow legal channels.
Mr. Thakur, PoJK people are not asking for your propaganda.
They are asking for rights.
▪︎ They are asking for fair elections.
▪︎ They are asking for genuine representation.
▪︎ They are asking for dignity.
▪︎ They are asking for electricity, flour, jobs and justice.
▪︎ They are asking not to be treated like subjects of Islamabad.
And anyone who lectures India daily on “Kashmiri rights” but cannot condemn Pakistan when PoJK people are shot and silenced has no moral authority left.
“United we stand, divided we fall” should mean unity against injustice.
Not unity under Pakistan’s control.
Not unity to protect Islamabad’s image.
Not unity to silence PoJK’s pain.
Not unity to blame protesters while praising the state.
PoJK is exposing everyone.
It is exposing Pakistan’s fake “Azadi.”
It is exposing the managed democracy.
It is exposing the exploitation.
It is exposing the silence of selective activists.
And it is exposing Muzzammil Ayyub Thakur’s politics for what it is:
Not human rights.
Not justice.
Not Kashmiri dignity.
Just anti-India propaganda wearing a Kashmiri mask.
