This petition was submitted during the 2017–2019 Conservative government

Rejected petition Support democracy in an internal J & K political process, not Indo-Pak hegemony.

Our forbears in J & K pre 1947 were transitioning from autocracy to democracy. Post 1947, we feel even more disenfranchised for becoming victims of an imposed land dispute that consequently nullified indigenous voices & divided our State. This transition was effected by the British Parliament.

More details

Having adhered to a long deliberated sequence of independent research in AJK since 2005, an internal political process has been created here. Link: http://bit.ly/2ZbUxIR Since 1947, many a MP in the UK has reiterated that J & K belongs to its people & only they can determine their future. What was lacking was an internal resolution process & the UK's disinclination to share responsibility in this avoidable dispute. Our geography & water resources should be a blessing for humanity, not a curse.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you're concerned about the political situation in Jammu and Kashmir, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

There are already petitions about the situation in Kashmir, which you might like to sign if they call for something you'd like to happen. You're more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.
