The longer they remain more difficult it is ta reach a settlement, vicious circle which delay itself creates. during the SU111mer the Government of grave concern over talk in Pakistan of Inc1ia. During the SU111mer also, the Pakistan expressed grave concern over . effective demilitarization of the State .Kashmir and over Indian troop movements border of Pakistan. 12. The lack of an effective agreement ation causes impatience and indignation people of Pakistan, and, among some a holy war against Inclia. Delays in cause talk of war. Talle of war causes tarization. One of the problems close the matter is to find a way ta bring to apparentlywithout an end. It is my the high capacity for social, political ventiveness of the leaders of the two continued l11ediation of the United Nations, find a formula ta end the talk of war del11ilitarization. 13.

"48. The official replies of the two ters· expressed not only the desire Governments to settle peacefully regardillg the State of Jammu and "49. Paragraphs 1 to 4 of the proposed agreement deal with general principles. Their objectives were as follows: "A. Ta meet a threat of recoU1'se ta ~!lar, the United Nations Representative proposed that the Governments of India and Pakistan "'1. Reaffirm their determination not ta resort ta force and ta adhere to peaceful procedures and specifically pledge themselves that they will not commit aggression or malce war, the one against the other, with regard ta the question of the State of Tammu and Kashmir;' . "B. Ta meet the problem of detrimenial propaganda, the United Nations Representative proposed that the Governments of India and Pakistan "'2. Agree that each Government, on its part, will instruct its official spokesmen and will urge a11 its citizens, organizations, publications and radio stations not to malce warlike statements or statements ca1culated ta incite the people of either nation to make war against the other with regard to the question of Jammu and Kashmir;' rte. .Ta meet alleged violations of the cease-fire, the United Nations Representative proposed that the Governments of India and Pakistan "'3.

The replies of both G~vernments indicated that they were favonrable to these first four clauses of the proposed agreement... " "55. Paragraph 5 of the proposed agreement was drawn up as follows: "'The Governments of [ndia and Palûstan . .. 1 t 1 2 For the text of the Karachi Agreement s~e 9 fficial Records of the Security COl!1~cjl, Fourth Year, Special SupPfemenl No. 7 (S/1430/Rev.l) Annex 26, p. 126.

The position of the two Governments this proposaI may be expressed as follows: "The Government of India agreed that tarization should be effected in a single pr·ocess in so far as it combined the demilitarization envisagec! in slIb-paragraph 4 Cb) of the 1949 resollltion with part II of the 13 August resolution but not to the extent of inc1uding stantial part of sub-paragraph 4 (a) of the 1949 resolution. l nelia was therefore willing clraw the bulk of the Inclian forces plus remainder. " sa as to leave on the Indian cease-fire line one !ine of communication quarters and one infantry division... brigades of four battalions each, provided caUs for complete demilitarization on the side of the cease-fire line, except for a force of 4,000 persons normally resident Kashmir territory, half of whom should be of Azad Kashmir and the other haH persons not followers of Azad Kashmir. This force, to the Government of Inc1ia, should be commandee! United Nations officers or 'locals' and not officers. "The Government of Paldstan agreed tarization should be effected in a single process subject to the provisions of paragraph the proposaIs of the United Nations Representative for India and Pakistan. The demilitarization", accordillg to Pakistan, "erivisaged in 4 (a) of the 5 January 1949 resolution shoulc1 be with the provisions of part II of the 13 August resolution. Pakistan was therefore wil1ing large-scale disanning and disbanding of Kashmir forces in a plan for the implementation part II of the 13 August 1948 resolution, such a plan caUs for withdrawals of the balance rndian forces (after the bulk) and a reduction State armed forces and State Militia." 18. Their main substance is implicit in the replies of the two Govern111ents to these proposaIs, which also indieate the main clifferences regarding proposais 6 to 12. 19. The replies of the Governments of India and Pakistan to paragraph 6 to 12 of the proposed clraft agreement, as they have heen summarized in the report indicate, in the opinion of the United Nations Repre~ sentative, that the points of clifference hetween the two parties in regard to the interpretation and execution of del11ilitarization on the basis of the draft agreement can he established as follows; 20. With l-egard to the period of demilitarization the Goverm:nent of India greatly doubts whether, during the penod of ninety days, the firm will to settle the Kashmir question peacefully woulcl have replaced in ~akistan the spirit and temper of war prevailing at the tune. The Government of Pakistan agrees that the phase of clemilitarization should be completed as sug- gested cluring a period of ninety days, unless another period is clecided lIpon by representatives of the Indian and Pakistan Governments. 21. Concerning the withc1rawal of troops, the Indian Government is ready to withdraw the bulk of the army when the tribes111en, Pakistan nationals .not normally resiclent in the State of Jam111l1 ancl Kashmir, and the Pakistan troops have been withclrawn from the State and large-scale disbandment ancl disannament of the AfJad Kashmir forces have taken place. 22. The Government of India maintains that further withdrawals or recluctions, as the case may be, of the lndian and State armed forces remaining in the State aUer the complete withdrawal of the bulk of the Indian forces, cannot be related to the periocl of ninety days. Both the period during which these further withdrawals or redllctions are to be made, and their phasing and quantum, cannot, in the opinion of the Government of lnclia, be determined at present. . 23. The Government of Pakistan agrees to the with- drawals as proposed in the ch-aft agreement, em- phasizing that the term "further withc1rawals or recluc- tians" mentioned in sub-paragraph 7 B (ii) refers to a large-scale recluction and clisarmament. 24. The Government of India agrees that on the Paki- stan sicle of the cease-fire line at the end of the period agreed upon, there should be a force of. 4,000 men, consisting of persons normally resident 111 the Azad Kashmir territory, haH of whol11 should be followers of Azad Kashmir and the other haH of persons who are not f61Iowersof Azad.Kashmir. This force should be 26. The Government of Pakistan maintains same standards should apply to the status of to be left on each side of the cease-fire line. 27. The Government of Pakistan considers force of no more than four infantry battalions, necessary administrative units, should remain side of the cease-fire line at the end of tarization programme. Pakistan, however, some sIight difference in the strength or description the twa forces should not stand in the way of ment being reached. 28. ,iVith regard to the Plebiscite Administrator, report states in paragraph 60, point 4: "(a) The Government of India considers . proposaIs concerning the appointment of scite Administrator should be omitted from ment. According to the Indian Govermnent, would be more appropriately included in that deal specifically and in detai! with of the plebiscite and connected matters. "(b) The Government of Pakistan e11lphasizes importance of appointing the Plebiscite Administrator formally to office as much in advance of the of de11lilitarization as possible." 29. From this analysis,. the fol1owing conclusions drawl1 in the report: "62. Due to the situation prevailing on continent, as explained in chapters II and not possible to effect demilitarization during available ta the United Nations Representative his ter11lS of reference. "63. The United Nations Representative forth in chapter III the main differences between two Govern11lents, not only in regard to pretation and execution of the UNCIP's of 13 August 1948 and 5 January 1949 demilitarization, but also in regard ta differellce between the parties concerning posaIs made by him for an agreement on demilitarization. The United Nations Representative consic1ers that, by c10ing sa, he has carried instructions contained in paragraph 5 of tion of 30 March 1951 of the Security Council. "64. It is with satisfaction and hope United Nations Representative emphasizes that the Prime Ministers of Illdia and Pakistan, their replies ta his proposaIs for an agreement, pressed their willingness to: "(c) Reaffinll their will to observe the cease- fire ... ; la ; lTt re 1- ,6 ;r " (d) Reaffirl1l their acceptance of the principle that the question of the· accession of the State Jammu and Kashl11ir to India or Pakistan will decided through the del110cratic method of a free and impartial plebiscite under the auspices of the United Nations. "65. Considering the results of the informaI con- sultations he1d by the United Nations Representative with the Governl11ents of India and Pakistan, and the written replies received from the two Govern- ments to his letter of 7 September 1951, and consid- ering further the points of difference forl11ulated the end of chapter III of this report, the United Nations Representative has come to the conclusion that,' although he does not underestimate the difii- culties, the possibility of arriving at a basis of agree- ment between the two Governl11ents is not excluded." :5' IfS ie, ;l. :Ilt ne te, \'il la- is- de l1lt 30. With regard to recommendations, the report chapter V states the fo11owing: "Accordingly, the United Nations Representative recommends to the Security Council: llX "1. That the Security Council ca11 upon the Gov- ernments of India and Pakistan to take immediately a11 l11easures to improve the relations between the two. countries by avoiding any increase of their military potential in the State of Jammu and Kash- mir, and by instructing their official spokesmen and urging a11 their citizens, organizations, publications and radio stations not to make war-like statements or statements ca1culated to incite the people of either nation to make .war against the other with regard to the question of J al11111U and Kashmir; f,. ln' du IJIS ri· 'el il la al ln "2. That the Security Council consider the possi- bility of a renewed effort being made to obtain agreement" - may I emphasize oral agreement '-- "of the parties to a plan for effecting the demili- tarization of the State of Jammu and Kashmir ; JI J rd ce ar er 1 "3. If the Security Council decides that a renewed effort to obtain an agreement should be made, might consider instructing the United Nations Repre- sentative to implement its decision by continuing the negotiations with the Governments of India and Pakistan in order to obtain an agreement of the parties to a plan for effecting the demilitarization the State of Jammu and Kashmir. Sueh negotiations should' be carried out at the seat of the Security Couneil, and the Council should instruct the United Nations Representative to report to the Couneil within six weeks." . III n, le ns n a· e.. ,f! le le, 31. The United Nations Representative, in making these three recommendations, because of his faith in the two Governments, wishes now to make an additional purely personal statement to e\llphasize the possible far- in iu In 32. With respect to the value of a settlement people of the State of Jammu and Kashmir, significant result which would proceed from ment would be the exercise by the people and Kashmir of the promised right of se1f-detennin- ation for which they have been anxiously three years. It wouId recognize the enduring in the long run, the sovereignty which proceeds princes is subject to the sovereignty of the after ail, under God, are the highest sovereignty. status based on the compulsion of force by or on the attrition of long delays in settlement not be permanently accepted by the people or of either nation, would not be in accordance principles and spirit of the United Nations, have the. support of the moral opinion of mankind, therefore could not long endure. 33. As a practical matter, without fulfilment promised right of self-determination through cratic method of a free and impartial plebiscite conducted under the auspices of the United the continuing dispute, as has been weil become a rtlnning sore, which would tend to resources and energies to the damage of the the peoples of both nations. 34. Furthermore, an agreement on the provisions actual demilitarization as a fair condition for free plebiscite would obviously be welcomed peoples of Asia who, out of their long and victorious struggles for self-determination, sympathetic concern. Such an agreement would lift to the spirit of peoples anywhere struggling !Je free. . 35.. As to the value of a settlement to the both nations, the chief road-black in the co-operation of India and Pakistan is the Kashmir pute. The prior settlement of the Kashmir would help clear the way for the settlement disputes of importance to the life of millions in India and Pakistan. Without knowledge without any thought on my part of going into of any other disputes, it is appropriate to that the importance of the other disputes more to the high importance of settling the dispute. The settlement of the dispute about there is the most bitterness would remove oarrier to the spirit of co-operation between Pakistan necessary for the· settlement of over evacuee property and waterways. In the importance of the disputes over evacuee and waterways, l mean ouly to emphasize importance of first settling the Kashmir dispute. ~ollnter-passedeach other on the trek from one country Il1to the other, have called forth the heroic efforts of both nations fo~ thei~ rehabilitation. To assuage some of the sorrow 111 thelr hearts and the horror in their memories, an agreement to adjust for them in their new country the values o~ their lands, homes, shops and other property leU beh1l1d in the old country would relieve some of the tension between the two peoples and aùd to the productive energies and morale of both nations.' 37. The co-operative spirit, enhanced by a settlement of tbe Kashmir dispute, woulcl also likely facilitate the settlement of the dispute over rivers and canals. This dispute is another obstacle in the way of the co- operation of India and Pakistan in the development of a programme for the maximum use of the water re- sources ta the advantage of both. Too much the waters from the hills ancl mountains wash away the precious topsoils, pile up the silt in the rivers, ancl go their wasteful way to the sea. The river valley systems can be co-operatively developed for the storing of vast water resources, conservation of the soils, irrigation and reclamation of the lancls for the production of foods and fibres and for the generation of power to meet the urgent needs of the peoples of the whole sub-continent. Out into the waste places and up the hillsides would move the mills and factories with their creative power, and clown from the hills would come tumbling the rivers for the electrification of civilization, cleanly charged with the potentials for the production of foods, fibres, goods, books, leisure, culture and something more of the good life for the further self-development of the higb natural ancl spiritual capacities of the people of India and Pakistan. 38. During the past several months, along with my task of finding out the present differences between the two nations over Kashmir, I have been trying to find out their historic differences in fundamental ideas and ways of life. l have read through scores of books ancl piles of related material, talked with many people in my line of dutY and observed the life and scenes about me. I have, within the narrow limits of my time, my ability and opportunity, tried to cEg deep into the centuries ta find the origin and depth of these differences. 39. Though I am still in the midst of explorations, even the fragments of my findings move me t~ say that it is important for the peoples of the sub-contment and the worId that every effort should be made promptly 40. The damaging results of unsettled disputes vast humait needs of hundreds of millions of the two nations emphasize the need in hearts of men and women of good will and Pakistan for a settlement of this 1110St pute. Furthermore, the 111utually destructive bitter memories and profotmd differences ative the finding of moral substitutes through opment of projects for creative international tion between the two peoples. International between leaders and representatives of the can promote the co-operative development resources, hydro-electric power, economic ~cientific r~sea1'ch, health projects, university mtercolleglate sports, youth conferences ciations, civic clubs and every other fdndamental of international co-operation for a freer ~Vith full and final acceptance of each m~e'pendenc~ and witl; fl!ll loyalty to splrltllal hentage and mdlgenous ways peoples have opportunities for the needed grammes of co-operation as various as people on the long peninsula between the 111 scope as the vast sub-continent, as monsoons and as hig-h as the mountains come the waters of life for the people. 41.. ~n agreement on the provIsIons tanz~tlOn of the State of Jal11l11u and provlde the ~xample of international co-operation pea~e for whlch the p~oples of the world day s work and pray 111 the sanctuary The leaders and the peoples of India and peace. Yet. these two great l)eoples are larger reahza.tion of their far-visioned fears of posslble war on the sub-continent. masses of the people of the British Commonwealth, 42. The intellectual, political and spiritual leaders of India and Pakistan have the most strategic opportunity, through the settlement of a complex and stubborn dis- pute, to give to the United Nations and to the peoples o.f the world a ~esperately needed example of interna- tlonal co-operatlOn for freedom, self-determination and peace. 43. The United Nations, with all its growing pains and frustrations, is the only international body for the settlement of the most difficult international disputes. The failure of peaceful settlement of such deep disputes has .involved the world in tragedies too terrible to risk agal11. The United Nations, with all its defects, is nevertheless, with its multilateral procedures for the peaceful settlement of campiex disputes, still the best hope of the peoples for peace. 44... The call comes to the peoples and the leaders of Indra and Pakistan not only from the United Nations but also from the homes and the com1110n life and hopes of hundreds of millions of human beings all over the e<,trth who toil in th~ !ields and factories, people in the VIllages, towns and cltIes, mothers and fathers in homes refugees without homes, sons and daughters dreaming of homes of their own, children in schools and without s~h.ools ~nd the un-numbered millions of human beings clIsmhented by war and hate. The calI comes from the people of our common human family around the earth who hope for homes and work in freedom and peace for themselves and their children. 45. On the vast Asian peninsula between the seas guarded by the highest mOtlntains on this earth, devel- oped one of the most advanced ancient civilizations of prehistoric times. Out of the basic Dravidian-Indo- Aryan stocks with Greco-Scythian, Arab, Persian, Turco-Afghan, Moghul and British elements and in- fluences, have developed the peoples of India and Paki- stan. The Portuguese, the Dutch, the French and more especially the British made the sub-continent an inter- dependent part of the great commercial revolution by which the new lands of America and the old lands of India and the East became the mighty pivots upon which the medieval turned to the modern world. The Hinclu epics, traditions and folk dramas, the Koran, the Islamic traditions, the assimilations of great religions; the values and treasures of great languages and litera- tures; the principles of the common law and the fund- amental rights of the common man, the struggles of the peoples on that sub-continent, on the foundations o. of their own ancient spiritual heritage, for the prin- ciples of civil liberties, federalisl11 and parliamentary government, of the basically humane people against 46. From the heritage and hopes, life these peoples, great leadership has developed times of Ashoka to Gandhi and Nehru days of Akbar to Jinnah and Liaqat Ali the crossing of ancient faiths and modern customs and modern democracy, frustrations patient sufferings and victorious struggles causes, have developed some of the our time, always overburdened, sometimes never daunted on that sub-continent with the problems of poverty, hunger, religious intolerance, caste, class and untold millions of people struggling freedom. 47. On the southern sub-continent many lands east and west, men and will are working and hoping through the nights, against the desperate hours of to redirect the possibilities of the self-destruction cÎvilization ta the potentialities of creative of nations in a great adventure of the through the United Nations, pioneering frontiers of the vast wilderness of our civilization. . 48. As a key part of this forward movement dom, an agreement on the provisions demilitarization of the State of Jammu by preparing the way for a free and impartial and the self-determination of the people, the way for the settlement of other larger co-operation of the Governments India and Pakistan; it would strengthen and moral ties of the Indonesian, North African, South-eastern European nean world, not as a bloc but as a spiritual freec10m and peace, and might bring about tian of ·the relations of East and vVest human turn in the tragic history of our 49.
