Grieved Mothers of India Say: Stop the killing of Children in Kashmir

Grieved Mothers Of India Say: Stop 
 
Srinagar, Aug 06, KONS: Nearly hundred women calling themselves ‘The Mothers Of India’ today issued an appeal calling for an end to the killing of children in Kashmir.
The signed statement from the Mothers Of India is reproduced below:
There is a sound in Kashmir that resonates longer than the staccato of the gun. There is a sound in Kashmir that wants the violence to stop. There is a sound in Kashmir, that doesn’t care about politics. There is a sound in Kashmir echoing: STOP, Enough! It is the sound of mothers crying as they wait for their children to return knowing that they may not. Wailing, as they wonder why their young ones were killed.

The Mothers of India calls out to the mothers all over India to make sure that no child is killed in Kashmir; that no mother cries in silence that violence does not beget more violence.

Mothers all over the country need to demand answers, why has Kashmir lost 17 children to a conflict they don’t even understand? We, the mothers, must raise our voices against any kind of extremism. After all we do not give birth to our children to see them killed brutally by bullets. How can we justify the violence on either side? How long can we be mute spectators and not respond to the pain of our sisters in Kashmir?

With 45 lives lost in the last few weeks we cannot sit back any more. We need to raise our voices for dialogue and debate. We need to look at a peaceful resolution to this mindless violence. The blame game should stop and mothers can do this.

The Mothers of India believe that the situation in Kashmir may yet be retrieved if the Government acknowledges that young people are feeling alienated. Treating it as a law and order problem will only deepen conflict and alienation.

This is a call to the mothers of Kashmir, of Manipur, of Assam of Chhattisgarh, of all the conflict zones to rise and come together for the future of our children. If we don’t stand up now and call for peace we will never be able to face our children whose future we are allowing to be destroyed.

This is not a problem of just the Kashmiri mothers alone. We are all impacted by the situation in Kashmir. Don’t our children deserve to live with dignity? Don’t they deserve a secure future? Don’t they deserve to grow feeling free and safe? We the mothers need to stand in solidarity against violent extremism. We need to permeate the corridors of power with a call for peace. Our voice has to be heard. Our voice will be heard!
