They are interviewing refugees from PO J&K and it falls upon a viewer to do the translation because these people could not add subtitles. How will the world hear these stories (!)
Spoiler!
Translation (some is paraphrased).
We want conditional talks with India. And now the same foreign minister of Pakistan, Shah—Qureshi, went to Omar (?) court in Pakistan occupied Kashmir and visited the temples. Why? Why is Pakistani visiting temples?
It is (a ploy) to show the International community, that “we take care of the community”. They are scared that is why they are (doing this). We have people here from Pakistan Occupied Kashmir. Those who have migrated from Pakistan Occupied Kashmir to Jammu and Kashmir to(in) India, after, you know, horrible killing(s) by their (Pakistani) Forces and their people after 1947 partition, they are the people who have suffered You know, in the Pakistan Occupied Kashmir.
(They will tell us what they have faced, You know, about their land and properties in POK (that they had to leave behind). This (man) over here…please relate what happened when you were compelled to leave POK and what are the conditions There now?”
Man answers: See, what happened there (paraphrased) is that Pakistan had a design from Day 1. That they had come to the conclusion that they simply had to change the demography in some parts of Hindustan. And to change the demography, with the help of kavaelis(?), Pakistan’s army attacked our village/district Mirpur, Muzzafarabad and Poonch; which were three districts/villages of Jammu and Kashmir. They targeted Sikhs and Hindus.
They sliced them like carrots and radishes, raped women, abducted our women. They wanted to create a climate of terrorism. They performed these atrocities with the intent to inspire fear so that the Sikhs and Hindus would convert to Islam, flee the region, or be killed. So, 10 lakh such displaced people are living in Jammu and another 3 lakhs in other parts of India.
This is Pakistan’s true face. And our mandirs (temples) and Gurudwaras (Sikh’s place of worship); which Pakistan pretends are protected are being/have been desecrated. This is complete falsehood. These sacred places that the muslims have destroyed were very sacred and pious locations. We have relentlessly asked that we be allowed to visit our holy places; whether it is Sharada Peeth or Chatti…gurudwara, or Ali Baig’s gurudwara. Or Mangala Mai’s temple.
They are not allowing us to visit these places is because there is nothing there! They have been destroyed…fully destroyed and completely decimated. They have accomplished this through devious conspiracy. These people do not respect ANY religion. They have no respect, no decency towards other religions. But look at us! Come to our districts (India) and witness for yourself the respect and space we give to the other religions.
We have a “Custodian Act”, which protects the land and possessions of those who left to live in Kashmir. We take care of their properties. We paint and clean their properties. The rents collected from these properties is placed in a bank account that belongs to the Kashmiris who left (not sure from where..I think he means Jammu?). But look at what has happened to our property in POK. We had movable and unmovable properties. No one knows what happened to our property or what condition they are in. Are they even there or have they been destroyed? This drama of Pakistan’s has been going on for 70 years.
Interviewer: “But why is it that, now, the foreign minister of Pakistan who was initially threatening India, is visiting these locations?”
Man: See, they want to show their people and the world that the Hindus have no respect for other religions. This of-course is blatantly wrong. Because we live here and we are totally safe. Sikhs live here and they too are totally safe. Muslims live here and they are totally safe. Christians live here and they are also equally safe and respected. This is not the case in Pakistan. Today the foreign minister wants to show that India has done in Kashmir, has been directed at just one community; and that we, Pakistanis are a secular nation and people. This is not how it is at all. Pakistan is a communal country. It’s very creation was on communal lines, and this is the case even today, within it. And people like us are the recipients of this communal basis of the country of Pakistan. If we had been Muslim, we would still be living there. We were Hindus and Sikhs, that’s why we were persecuted and made to flee.
Interviewer: “ How about your relatives who were left behind?”
Man: Today, there is not one relative of ours, who lives there now. They were either converted, killed or they fled. I challenge the foreign minister of Pakistan to show me one single Hindu or Sikh in POK. And if there is even one Sikh or Hindu in POK, I will concede that Pakistan respects non-muslims.
Interviewer questions the next man: There are no minorities left in POK.(@5:04) He approaches the Sikh gentleman: Will you tell me where did you live in POK? And what are the conditions there today? What were the conditions and circumstances when you fled POK?
Sikh gentleman: My relatives used to live in Poonch. They had apple (?) orchards there. No minority is safe in POK and Pakistan. No matter their religion; Hindu, Sikh or Christian. Let me give you an example. Just recently a young Sikh girl was literally dragged away from her home and married off to a muslim man. Her entire family has appealed to the Pakistani authorities to return her to them but to no avail. Her family has said that they will immolate themselves if no attention is given to their plea. Tell us where are we safe in Pakistan and POK? All Pakistan is doing is promoting lies. We have no information on our properties that we were forced to leave behind.
Interviewer: ‘is there anyone who could give you information about your property left behind in POK?”
Sikh gentleman: Everyone who was left behind has been forced to convert to Islam. Some of our relatives were unfortunate to be left behind and they all have been converted to Islam.
Interviewer: “ Let me get to some other people here. The foreign minister had been threatening war with India, but now he is on an appeasement trip ….to scope out temples and gurudwaras. Why?
Man @7:30: See, I can say this without doubt that Pakistan is like a chameleon. There is no integrity in his words. There is no saying what he will say from minute to minute. There is no faith that one can have in this country (Pakistan). I am being completely truthful in my words here. I was born in Jammu but my father related to me in tears that there was a time in Kashmir when there was immense love and respect between the Sikhs, Hindus and Muslims. Everyone had great respect and protection for each other. The problem has been created by Kavalies (?).
All our properties and holdings have been lost because of the Kavalies. They conspired to do this. We had so many properties. We were legitimate business people there. Many of us were big businessmen. These people are inhumane and I totally condemn their actions. All Pakistan does is total fakery. Ask our elders on all sides who went through the horrors of partition of India/ invasion of Kashmir. Ask them! How scores of the family members of these elders were brutally murdered. These elders weep for the harmony, compassion and love that existed between the muslims and the non-muslims before the marauders showed up. Pakistan speaks bull shit about the preservation of temples and gurudwaras. All lies. There is no care taking of our sacred places going on there in Pakistan and POK. They are tethering animals who will be going in( for slaughter )at our sacred places of worship!
End @9:43
Basically, that’s the gist of it.
