It is indeed an eye
opening history that is hardly known or acknowledged. To this rare history you
may add a little more. Everyone puts the blame on Nehru for his promise of
Plebiscite in Kashmir, but how many know who and what introduced the induction
of UN Commission in Kashmir?
The never talked and perhaps never known and hence
never acknowledged fact is that it was Sheikh Abdullah’s address to the UN
Security Council on February 5, 1948 that brought the UN Commission on Kashmir
to the actual ground.
Speaking that day Abdullah roared on the floor of the UN
Security Council floor when he stated before the assembled members: “After
all, I do not have any magic lamp so that I might bring the entire picture of
Jammu and Kashmir state along with the borders of Pakistan before the eyes of
the members of the Security Council so that might see who is fighting and who
is not fighting.
Therefore somebody must go to the spot. That is the only help
we want and no other help”. The SecurityvCouncil accepted this plea of
Sheikh Abdullah and constituted the UNCIP vide its resolution dated April 21,
1948.
It is ironic everyone blames Nehru for Plebiscite but no one even knows
that to compound matters further in Kashmir it was Sheikh Abdullah to whom goes
the dubious distinction of having brought the UN intervention in Kashmir to a
physical reality.
Thus was Kashmir served with the deadly cocktail of international
intervention.
