Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (PoK), which legally is part of India is seeing a genocide in action. A lot of press has gone to all the towns in the world about the so-called human rights abuses by India in Kashmir, specifically post abrogation of Article 370. The facts, of course, are
Dear New York Times’ Editorial Team, I have been a subscriber of your paper’s online edition for the last 2 years, which I canceled recently. For the last 20 years, perhaps the only news channel I ever watched was CNN. I found MSNBC too insipid and Fox outrageously insane.
A five-member Supreme Court of India’s Constitution bench [https://www.indiatoday.in/india/story/supreme-court-to-hear-pleas-challenging-abrogation-of-article-370-from-today-1604974-2019-10-01] of Justices N V Ramana, S K Kaul, R Subhash Reddy, B R Gavai and Surya Kant heard pleas related to Abrogation of Article 370. There were, in all, 11 pleas against abrogation of
Imran Khan’s UNGA speech in the United Nation’s General Assembly hall will go down in history as one that set the stage for the Third World War. For, it wasn’t a speech. It was a Declaration of Wars. Not one war but multiple wars. Let us take
Pakistan keep calling China its eternal friend. In fact, Imran Khan is at pains to dodge the whole question of Uighur Muslims and their pathetic treatment by the Chinese only because China is such a “great friend”. Despite the so-called great friendship between China and Pakistan, China has confirmed that
In yet another humiliation, Pakistani establishment shenanigans have been beaten back on foreign soil. In a rather in-your-face move, Pakistani consulate in Iran’s northeastern city of Mashhad, had put up anti-India banners on its walls outside. Pakistani consulate in Iranian city of Mashhad put anti-India banners outside its walls
Pakistan’s government is deeply Hinduphobic and full of bigotry. It has a wet dream of launching Ghazwa-e-Hind, for which they have no resources or power. But that does not stop their ministers from promoting it. Pakistan is being run by loonies who are religious bigots and despite the narrative
Last year, the Canada wing of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) was suspended for a year effective Sept. 12 and ordered the Mississauga-based charity to pay a $550,000 penalty by the Canada Revenue Agency for transferring $136,000 to terror organization backed by Pakistan against India, Hizbul
Pakistan Army is mad about Kashmir and India’s abrogation of Article 370. Major(R) Gaurav Arya belonged to most decorated Infantry Regiment of Indian Army i.e. Kumaon Regiment. In this video he talks about of options Pakistan Army has after India’s Historic decision to abrogate Article 370
Maldives Parliament (Majlis) was hosting the 4th south Asian speakers summit on achieving the sustainable development goal today and what did the Pakistani delegation do? It raised Kashmir there! Pakistan creates a ruckus at South Asian Speakers summit and starts frothing on Kashmir in Maldivian Parliament as India gives it
Pakistan has lost in all the legitimate areas on Kashmir. UNO, the UN Security Council, traction with Middle East and Islamic countries and the Western countries. It has lost in every avenue. So what is it doing now? It is trying to rake the issue by going hyper-nationalist on it.
A Kashmiri Hindu speaks about the religious nature of the conflict in Kashmir, the atrocities committed on the Hindu minority and the lessons to be learnt for the rest of India.
There has been a concerted attempt by the global and certain sections of Indian media to spread lies and falsehoods on Kashmir. The truth is something else. Yes, Kashmiris are angry, but not at Modi. Their anger is against Abdullahs and Muftis for how they lied for 70 years! @AartiTikoo
Pakistanis are openly asking for Muslims to kill Hindus in Kashmir [https://in.news.yahoo.com/kashmiris-should-kill-hindus-settling-in-their-territory-tariq-pirzada-080708834.html] on their national TV. Pakistani Prime Minister, Imran Khan openly goes on a Hinduphobic tirade [https://tribune.com.pk/story/2033036/1-kashmir-nazi-inspired-rss-will-suppress-muslims-india-target-pakistan-pm-imran/?amp=1] in his interviews and speeches. Both Army and
As Amit Shah tightens the screws on Kashmir, it is now learnt that more troops have been ordered [https://www.dnaindia.com/india/report-centre-rushes-10000-troops-to-kashmir-2776304] for Kashmir on an immediate basis. Officials have said the Union home ministry has ordered the deployment of 100 companies of the Central Armed Police Forces
There are many buffoons in India, but the ignorant idiots take the cake. And, 90% of all Indians I have met are completely clueless about Kashmir. In fact, cluelessness and ignorance has been deliberately cultivated in India by the governments over the last 65 years on Kashmir. From Nehru to
On August 15, 1947 when India got independent and Pakistan also got created, Kashmir was a free sovereign state. Let me repeat that again – it was a FREE SOVEREIGN STATE. And Pakistan acknowledged it so by signing the Standstill Agreement with the sovereign ruler of Jammy and Kashmir – Maharaja Hari
Pakistan has been badly stung after the Surgical Strikes by India in PoK and it is running around like a mad dog trying to see whom it can spit its story at to make them believe in them! In a smeeting in an interaction by Atlantic Council, Pakistani Senate’s
A lot is said by the Pakistanis on Plebiscite in Kashmir. Taking the cue from their baseless and ill-informed propaganda, many Indians also feel that plebiscite is a genuine logical next step. None of them have read the UN Resolutions of course and processed them. It is therefore extremely important
Things are achanging between India and Pakistan. The paradigms are being reconstructed. Along factual reality I would add. Modi Reframes #Kashmir Based on Facts, Finally!! #KashmirCrisis @BJP4JnK [https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwp.me%2Fp27rDI-7DO&text=Modi%20Reframes%20%23Kashmir%20Based%20on%20Facts%2C%20Finally%21%
Burhan Wani’s death in Kashmir by the Indian forces has opened up the a Pandora’s box of those who run the cottage industry of Pseudo-Liberalism. The arguments are familiar but worth listing and rebutting directly, because the hypocrisy has gone on for far too long. The distortion of
Thousands of Kashmiri Pandits were driven out of the valley in January of 1990 by Kashmiri Muslims backed by Pakistan’s Jehadi-ISI combine. This was made possible through arms, money and political backing of Pakistani establishment after the call by Benazir Bhutto. Terrorists like Bitta Karate and Yasin Malik were
Kashmir issue has been a sticky issue for India and has been used by Pakistan to hit at India. But things have changed since the Modi government came. The skeletons are tumbling out from the closet and we are learning the truth. Let us get it all out clearly. [lwptoc
Never has the fate of an inconsequential sports game so remarkably captivated the hearts and minds of close to 1.5 billion people ever before! India and Pakistan met in their first group match of the 2015 One Day Cricket World Cup. The match was billed as the “Mother of
The mafia of the Politicians, Bureaucrats, Paid Media, Human Rights Activists and the Terrorists is ruining the country, but more so the Indian Defense Services. When someone like VK Singh a person who wasn’t a “Yes Man” comes along, he is targeted in every way. But in the normal
I really hadn’t heard about this in the Indian media. But it is very significant in the India – Pakistan relations. Even if not in view of India, but definitely from the perspective of Pakistan. This is sure to be raised in every media outlet by the extremists. The International
Very few fora and still fewer analysts have ever talked of Kashmir in an intelligent way. I feel one of the very very few is Barrister Bashani. He is a Kashmiri himself from the PoK. And his knowledge of Kashmir’s history and that of Pakistan is second to none.
It is always interesting when victims of one tyrannical society mock the helplessness of victims of another. In this case, an Iranian Girl Band has expressed shock [http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/delhi/Fatwa-on-Kashmir-girls-band-stuns-Iran-musical-group/articleshow/18358800.cms] , not only at how the Kashmiri Girl band was hounded into silence, but
For last 65 years of India’s independence, India has been mainly governed by Congress and its allies for most part. Kashmir issue was created by Congress. Its mess was perpetuated by Congress under Nehru, Indira Gandhi and then Rajiv Gandhi. Khalistan problem was also created by Congress. In the
In a strange coincidence or portend of forthcoming disaster, one is not so sure, ads in the newspapers in Kashmir are telling people on what to do during a Nuclear attack. > The notice, published Monday by the Kashmir police in the Greater Kashmir newspaper, advised people to build toilet-equipped basements
I am sure many have seen and heard this die-hard Pakistani rabid analyst, Zaid Hamid. He talks a lot of nonsense and rants out rabid threats against Jews, Americans, and specially choicest ones against Indian. But, nothing would have prepared, even me – who had written a stinging article on him
Not only did the Pakistanis enter Indian territory and behead two soldiers in violation of the Geneva convention and the Cease fire agreement (Read this [http://www.patheos.com/blogs/drishtikone/pakistani-soldiers-sickos-enter-indian-territory-behead-two-indian-soldiers-and-carry-ones-head-with-them-as-trophy/] . this [http://www.patheos.com/blogs/drishtikone/indian-jawans-beheading-by-pakistani-army-ill-informed-indian-tv-anchors-ill-prepared-debaters-and-aggressive-but-lying-pakistani-media-s
A country is not a one-celled animal that it can only focus or do one thing at a time. Nor is a human being so. A country needs to have an organizational ability (through its Executive, Administrative, Legislative, and Judiciary) to tackle many fronts at the same time. Lately, we
Two Indian soldiers have been beheaded [http://www.patheos.com/blogs/drishtikone/pakistani-soldiers-sickos-enter-indian-territory-behead-two-indian-soldiers-and-carry-ones-head-with-them-as-trophy/] . As we discussed this is an extremely barbaric act and an inhuman behavior. Even animals can do better than that. I have put two videos at the bottom of the post which you should view. One is
In a way it is sad that someone has to deny his nationality because of its taint. But in a lot of ways, many of the Pakistanis are responsible for what has happened in their country and the community here in the US. After all, the jingoism, the fanaticism and
Genocide is the worst crime against humanity. Girish Karnad once went after the author VS Naipaul at the Mumbai LitFest and argued why it was wrong to honor Naipaul with the Lifetime Achievement award.

Syed GeelaniKashmir and the “movement” there, I have held, has nothing to do with Kashmiryat or any Human Rights. It is Islamization of a part of India. Period. With Islamization comes throwing out of any other faith, belief system and religious minorities. As long as Muslims are in minority, they
These are pictures from the Amarnath Yatra this year. They are from various sources and just amazing. Most of these have been compiled from this site [http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2012/07/amarnath_journey_to_the_shrine.html]. It is said that it was here that Shiva explained the
Jamaat-e-Islami Kashmir is a Cadre-based Islamic organization which is actively involved in Kashmir and is overtly anti-Indian. One of its founders is Syed Geelani, the extremist who is the darling of the Indian anarchists like Arundhati Roy. Well, as the tourism in Kashmir increases, the Jamaat-e-Islami Kashmir wants to establish
Kashmir and the situation there – all the way from how it is articulated to how it is portrayed and to how it is handled – is full of hypocrisy and wreaks of nauseating cliches with no basis in facts. In all this drama, the facts and fiction (which are probably now
On October 21st, 2010; Arundhati Roy, Delhi University professor S.A.R.

(Continued from Part I [https://www.drishtikone.com/definitive-story-kashmir-part-i/]) Intrigue, schizophrenia and mindless hunger for power has beset Kashmir since long. Foolish Dogra kings who enabled others to trample Kashmir The Dogra kings of the hills have long been valiant but vain. They would rather fight the Sikhs, including Guru
The situation in Kashmir is strongly contested, historically misrepresented and ideologically argued. That is why the discussions and debate on this topic are grounded in rhetoric as opposed to reality. To understand where we are, it is important to understand why we are here.
