During a typical day in the valley of Kashmir you would expect bustling life, children laughing, eldering lounging in the sun and serenity. Sadly, that seems not to be the case. Jammu & Kashmir has been gripped in turmoil and bloodshed for the past 70 years, suffering barbarically at the hands of Indian occupied forces.
In the midst of 108,709 destroyed homes and properties, the land once referred to as heaven on earth has now been reduced to ruins. For the people of Indian occupied Kashmir, bloodshed, pain and tears is a way of life. Mothers never know if their children will return home from their playgrounds, the elderly do not know if their lives will end naturally or by a bullet that strays into their homes, young men clench their teeth, when a security vehicle turns the corner into their street while the women hesitate to leave their homes in fear.
Every now and then, you come across a dried up blood spatter and are forced to wonder whose life was tragically taken by the Indian occupation forces. No woman, no man, no child is safe from the barbaric invaders of Kashmir. While the Indian leadership desperately tries to hush the cries of help emanating from the valley and slaughtering freedom fighters by labelling them as terrorists, it fails to keep the Kashmiri suffering secret from the world.
Numerous human rights organizations have consistently reported the grave violations that have become a norm for the valley. The total number of people killed at the hands of Indian security forces has reached an alarmingly unchecked 94,952 as of March 2018. 22,867 women have been widowed and 107,701 children orphaned.
It is unexplainable how the BSF and security forces can commit such heinous inhumane acts of violence against someone else’s brother, father, mother, sister and daughter when they have families of their own at home. The impunity and immunity that these barbaric occupation forces enjoy is alarming and uncomfortable.
Indian occupation forces routinely go out of their way to harass, humiliate and intimidate the civilian population of Kashmir. The twisted power show is evident from reports of public molestation, rape of not only adults but children, uncalled for beatings and forced detentions and other various acts of violence. Even though women rights and women safety has been a huge awareness theme in India in recent years, Indian human rights champions have failed to protect 11,058 Kashmiri women from gang rapes and molestation at the hands of BSF and Indian Army. No one can imagine the amount of pain and suffering that is handed out to the innocent people of Kashmir just because they demand the long overdue and legal right of self-determination from the cruel ruling elite of India.
No person should have to go through what these people have gone through for over 7 decades and who are still going through just because they demand their freedom. Indian Occupied Kashmir is a tragedy just like Syria and Palestine. The loss of human life and the atrocities are equally horrific if not more. India has taken away not only the right to life but also the dreams and hopes of thousands of people. It is time that the Indian occupation forces are held accountable and Kashmir is liberated once and for all.
