70 Days: Kashmir still Bleeding!

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh

Wifaqul Ulama  would like to point out that today is the 70th day of Curfew in Jammu and Kashmir. What does this mean? Whats been happening in Kashmir for decades?

1. 100,000 Killed
2. 10,000 Disappeared
3. 60,000 Children Orphaned
4. 60 Years of Permanent Indian Army Deployment
5. 3 Months of Shooting with Pellet Guns, Hundreds Injured
6. 14% of those shot and injured with Pellet Guns are under 15!
7. While you celebrated Eid, Muslims in Kashmir could not because of Curfew

You know about Palestine but did you forget about  Kashmir?

My response to the Brother is regrettable. I don’t wish to engage on this issue. I wish to apologise and move on. To all those reading it, I pointed out many tweets on the subject by searching and it took a few minutes.

I regret my lapse in concentration and don’t wish to respond to the Brother. He is free to think whatever he wishes.

Please approve this edit.

Police in Indian-administered Kashmir have  arrested a prominent human rights activist, a day after he was barred from travelling to Switzerland to participate in a session of the UN Human Rights Council.

Khurram Parvez, the chairperson of Asian Federation Against Involuntary Disappearances, was arrested at his home in Srinagar, the capital of Jammu and Kashmir state, late on Thursday, police said.

On Wednesday, immigration officials at New Delhi's international airport barred Parvez from boarding a plane to Geneva even though he had a valid visa and letter of invitation from the UN body.

Authorities "told [Pervez] that due to orders from the Intelligence Bureau, he cannot travel to Geneva", Parvez Imroz, the president of the Jammu Kashmir Coalition of Civil Society, said in a statement.
