CUK observes International Human Rights Day

SRINAGAR: The State Accountability Commission (SAC) member Justice (Retd). Bashir Ahmad Kirmani Thursday alleged that the countries championing the cause of human rights were actually responsible for perpetuating worst human rights abuses.

“United States, United Kingdom and other Western countries which claim to protect and safeguard the rights of humans are responsible for death, destruction and devastation, particularly, in the Middle East countries like Iraq, Syria, Palestine and other nations,”  Bashir Ahmad Kirmani.

He said the western countries, particularly, the United States, in the name of ‘securing its own people’ has waged wars on the turf of other countries. 

He discussed ongoing conflicts in various regions and excesses committed by the State and non-state actors, trampling the rights of masses.

Registrar, Prof. M Afzal Zargar while explaining the importance of the day said there are political, social and economic contours of human rights and the State of J&K has a particular relevance to the subject in view of its conflict situation.
