While, all of these ethnic minority have their own language, culture, and often literature, but
their languages, traditions and cultures are banned without any prosperity, which has created
an unpleasant situation for all minorities. Their differences usually emerge as political
ambitions and demands.
The mosaic of peoples living in Iran reflects the geographical situation of the country
throughout history. One of the major internal policy challenges during the centuries up until
now for most or all Iranian governments has been to find the appropriate and balanced
approach to the difficulties and opportunities caused by this diversity, particularly as this
internal diversity has often been readily utilized by foreign powers.
International human rights organization should lobby the government of Iran and work to
secure rights for ethnic, religious and linguistic minorities and indigenous people in Iran.
Minorities should be provided education and training in their own languages to enable them
to claim their rightful place in their own society and region.
International human rights organizations and UN should take steps on behalf of minorities in
the world for advancing the protection of them under international law.
Conclusion
If Iran’s rulers declares genuine amnesty and allows genuine participation of all minorities
and their political organisations and ordinary citizens in democratic political process in Iran,
then there would be no violence of any sorts including state terrorism. This is part of the
peaceful nature and tolerant culture of all Iranian nationalities. This sort of participation can
only be genuine and real if the Iranian constitution is amended to recognise all the diverse
ethnic - linguistic and religious elements of Iran.
There is no State’s TV stations and Radio in minority’s languages, no education in regional
languages, neither in schools nor in universities and institutions of higher education.
Tehran’s ultra centralized development strategy has resulted in a wide socioeconomic gap
between the centre and the peripheries, where there is also an uneven distribution of power,
socioeconomic resources, and sociocultural status. The violence in remote regions such as
Kurdistan, Khuzistan, Azerbaijan and Baluchistan clearly has ethnic components, but the far
greater causes of the poverty and unemployment that vexes members of ethnic minorities are
government organised corruption, inefficiency, and a general sense of lawlessness, which all
Iranians, including Persians, must confront.
The policies like restriction on opposition’s political parties (minorities are not allowed to
have any official political parties and cultural forums), stricture on minorities’ civil society,
suppression of none-state media, subordination of the judicial system, and abolition of the
direct election of regional minorities are absolutely routine actions.
