Translation of Sign Language Speech of Mr. Irfan Mumtaz, President, Pakistan Association of the Deaf
Program: Press Conference
Venue: Karachi Press Club
Date: Saturday October 29, 2011
Mr. Irfan Mumtaz started his speech with the prayers " Bismillah ir-Rahman ir-Rahim" (In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Compassionate).
He welcomed the representatives of Print & Electronic media and senior journalist and said that the toady we are here to raise our voice against the increasing events of sexual assault by criminally insane persons who are at large and Government machinery is sitting idle.
He referred to the tragic incidence of Rawalpindi in which a minor (five year old) girl of deaf parents was sexual assault by an adult in the broad day light and the law enforcement remained unaware till the media made it to public.
On behalf of the deaf community we are here to lodge our protest for the ignorance of the Government in providing security to the public and especially to deaf and disabled people. All deaf and disabled are united in Pakistan and we want justice and protection for the deaf parents and minor girl from such criminal and insane peoples.
The Deaf and the disabled are all together and from this apex forum we appeal the Government of Pakistan, the Chief Minister Punjab, Honorable Chief Justice of Pakistan and Human Rights Organization and NGOs to pay immediate attention towards the problems of the deaf and disabled as we are also the Citizen of this country and it is the duty of the Government to provide safe secure and peaceful environment to all its citizens without any discrimination.
In Punjab, a similar incident was also recorded in which a young girl of class ten (Matric) was raped by criminally insane assailant.
With very strong emotions and words of anger would like to say that the Government has failed and they should immediately prove their competence or just leave, and let competent able people govern. So that the peace loving people of this great nation good live without the fear and hardship.
We request that Government should give incentive to the interpreters (Deaf Sign Language to Urdu / Regional Language) so that the Deaf could easily communicate with the Police, Doctors, Lawyers and the nursing staff in hospitals. Deaf in Pakistan are familiar with Pakistan Sign Language for the Deaf with should be recognized by the Government as a language and Government should give jobs to interpreters who would intern help deaf and that would create a peaceful environment.
We also demand the Government to give representation of Deaf in Assemblies, make necessary amendment is the law keeping in view the needs of deaf and disabled. Allow us to drive and increase the quota for job in the Public Sector with strict law and foolproof implementation and monitoring system should be established at level.
Finally, I wrap my speech, which is for highlighting the problems of the deaf with a appeal to the representatives of the print and electronic media to help by giving us media support, so that our voice / protest could reach the authorities responsible for the public safety, security and livelihood.
On behalf of the Executive Committee of Pakistan Association of the Deaf and our members, Me (Iran Mumtaz, President), Asif Muneer (Vice President) and Usman Majeed (General Secretary), thank you all for listing us. We also request you to please join us in our peaceful demonstration / protest for the attention of Government with reference to the Rawalpindi incidence etc.
