Not as dumb logic as the guy who said that freedom fighters can't be "innocent" So according to him Bhagat Singh and all those who fought freedom from the British are "not innocent"

go and learn the meaning of a colony and a state!!

how is it a holy land for hindus when the british coined the term "hinduism" AND their is no record of hinduism in ancient texts. Thus logic provides that there cannot be a holy land for hindus.

thanks for educating us on this valuable information...

Well Sir you are right the word Hindu(ism) is an alien concept made by persians for those living beyond the river sind they actually misspelled sind which became the present day 'hind'.

The actual word for our religion is Sanātana Dharma (a Sanskrit phrase meaning "the eternal law") .


Hindus/Sikhs/Buddhist belong to the Dharmic tree like Islam belongs to the Abrahamic tree. The dharmic religions have shared belief in terms of karma, reincarnation, moksha,kali yuga etc.

Kashmir is sacred land for Dharmic religions if you wish to get technical.

No one except india considers Kashmir a "state" of india. Just like you guys wanted independence from the British, the Kashmiris want freedom from the tyranny of indian occupation. If they are terrorists then so are people who fought for indias freedom

Congress isn't very cooperative with Buddhists either. For example, I am a Vajrayana Buddhist by belief and by our sect, most of our texts revere mainstream Hinduism.

Most Congress politicians in the northeast claim to help Buddhists but don't do anything in reality when it comes to stopping illegal immigrants who are violent or foreign missionaries who demonize our peaceful faith.

Thank God, this din't happen in our country otherwise India & world would have been gearing up for another media assault on Pakistan.

But I hope good and wish good to the followers of Buddha.

Please note that this yatra is being carried out since last hundreds of years. Even before birth of Pakistan & ISLAM.

Islam is a title which was given to this religion on completion and exists from the day 1 of this planet.

The origin of Amarnath Yatra dates back to the year 1850 A.D, when a Muslim shepherd from Batakot, named Buta Malik first discovered the cave in which lay enshrined the naturally formed Shivling (a Shivaite Fertility Symbol) made of ice.

This site is visited by Hindus only since 1850. The "Lingam" is actually PEN15 or Phallus symbol of Shiva. The Hindus worships ''Lingam'' male sexual organ and ''Yoni'' femal sexual organ.

Hindu's dont worship sex organs u retard lol we worship the Supreme being.

The Lingam is often represented with the Yoni, the aniconic symbol of the goddess. The union represents the "indivisible two-in-oneness of male and female, the passive space and active time from which all life originates".

Its like yin and Yang

are you trying to prove yourself a professor in Indian history ??

probably you did not read the Muslims attrocities on Sikhs to forcibly..mind it foricbly convert them to muslims..and when they failed in doing so..the sikhs were killed,mercilessly..just search and learn about sikh history...thousands of sikhs were butchered by Mughals just to forcibly convert them to Islam.

P.S - this is not to hurt any sentiments of our Indian muslims..I am just talking about Mughals, as claimed by the poster that they did not try to use force to convert everyone by force.

Jatt is really jattt...........

But dear buddy, your fellow followers of Abrahamic faith don't accept this. How can you say that then? I am talking about the day 1 discussion. I have asked this to all three of your faith followers (Jews, Christians and Muslims) and none of them agree with each other.

Police Intimidating Facebook Users in Kashmir: Rights Group​

SRINAGAR (AFP) – A leading rights group in Indian Kashmir said Tuesday Facebook users were being intimidated by police for uploading images of ongoing deadly protests in the Himalayan region.

Over the past six weeks the Muslim-majority Kashmir valley has been in the grip of regular anti-India demonstrations. Clashes with security forces have so far left 17 young protesters and bystanders dead.

Young Kashmiris have been uploading photos and videos on social networking site Facebook and video-sharing sites like YouTube.

The region's leading rights group, Coalition of Civil Society, said some Facebook users had been asked to report to police stations as a consequence.

"It is intimidation, nothing else," said Khurram Parvez, co-ordinator of Coalition of Civil Society. "The protests by Kashmiri youth even on virtual spaces like Facebook are not being tolerated, not to speak of the fate meted out to the protesters on the streets of Kashmir," Parvez told AFP.

"The democratic space for dissent in Kashmir is choked," he said.

The crackdown is allegedly centred in southern Anantnag district where police are accused of shooting dead three young men during protests last month. Grainy and shaky images of the blood-splattered bodies were uploaded.

The local police denied summoning anyone.

One 27-year old Kashmiri man told AFP he had deactivated his account under pressure from local police. He did not give his name out of fear of reprisals.

"They (police) told us we can't book you for using Facebook or YouTube but we can easily implicate you in other serious crimes if you don't mend your ways," he said.

India is wary of new technology and its ability to foment protests, as was most recently shown during demonstrations in Iran last June.

Footage of a young woman, Neda Agha-Soltan, being shot dead was put on YouTube which quickly turned her into a powerful and poignant symbol of the opposition movement.

Last month India banned phone users from sending SMS text messages in troubled Kashmir amid fears they were being used to mobilise protests and public opinion.

Kashmir is jointly administered by India and Pakistan.

An insurgency against Indian rule in the region that began in 1989 has claimed an estimated 47,000 lives.
