Government should take immediate actions to introduce Constitutional reforms for Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Jammu & Kashmir: Youth Parliament Pakistan

Islamabad, April 17; Youth Parliament has demanded that the Government and the Parliament of Pakistan must take immediate steps to introduce Constitutional reforms for AJK and Gilgit-Baltistan to bring these two territories into the mainstream of Pakistan.

The second day of the second session of Youth Parliament began with the discussions on the impact of energy crisis in Pakistan. The first resolution was moved by Mr. Ahmed Numair Farooq (YP21-Punjab01) asking the provincial governments to play a pivotal role in the establishment of their own power generation units.

The second resolution was moved by Mr. Malik Rehan Baloch (YP04-Balochistan02) which demanded that the Government should abolish all illegal camps in various parts of Balochistan. The members opposed the unjust demographic change in Balochistan, Sindh and KPK. The resolution was passed with majority.

The third resolution was moved by Mr. Hassan Ashraf (YP01-AJK01), Mr. Tauseef Abbassi (YP02-AJK02), Mr. Siraj-Ud-Din-Memon (YP57-SINDH09), Mr. Aamir Abbas Turi (YP08-FATA01), Mr. Najeeb Abid Balouch (YP05-BALOCHISTAN03), Ms. Elwina Rauf (YP10-GB01) and Ms. Anum Mohsin (YP22-PUNJAB02) which asked the Government to introduce Constitutional reforms for Gilgit Baltistan and Azad Jammu and Kashmir. The members discussed that Pakistan’s claim over Indian occupied Jammu and Kashmir should not be compromised.

Earlier the Youth Parliament members joined a Counter Extremism Workshop especially organised to inculcate in them the skill to understand and define extremism and its various facets and how to effectively counter it as youth of Pakistan. The workshop, spanned over two days of group exercises, discussions, simulation and analysis, has been especially designed to assist youth Parliament in understanding conflicts and extremism and how to effectively tackle these in the society.
