WASHINGTON – The World Kashmir Awareness Forum (WKAF) and the Kashmir Diaspora Coalition (KDC) said they stand in solidarity with the Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the family of Canadian Hardeep Singh Najjar who was murdered on June 18, 2023 by Indian foreign intelligence operatives.
Expressing horror at this heinous crime, WKAF and KDC Board members unanimously stated “We stand in complete solidarity with the Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, the Canadian people and the Canadian Sikh community in condemning this extrajudicial killing. This is a clear instance of the Government of India flaying international law and engaging in state-sponsored acts of terrorism. Silencing overseas political opposition through sheer acts of terror will have a far-reaching impact on freedom of speech and expression across the civilized world.”
We, at WKAF and KDC, are committed to the principles of a free, democratic world. Since the Modi-led BJP government came into power in India, it has systematically silenced any opposition to its rule both domestically and internationally. Moreover, we would like to bring to the world’s attention the havoc India is wreaking in the disputed territory of Jammu and Kashmir as it continues to commit grievous human rights violations, including murders and illegal detentions of those who resist the oppressive regime.
Finally, the international community is urged to confront the fascist BJP government of India, especially while it aggressively hunts down defenseless asylum seekers, refugees, political activists, academics, international students, human rights defenders and journalists. We urge the Human rights groups in the US, UK, Canada, EU, and other law-abiding countries to confront and sanction the Indian regime for its blatant disregard for international law.
