The people of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir continue to face India’s brutal policies as the world is observing International Day of Remembrance and Tribute to the Victims of Terrorism, today.
An analytical report released by Research Sec-tion of Kashmir Media Service on the day, said, Narendra Modi-led Hindutva Indian government has stepped up its state terrorism and political injustice in occupied Jammu and Kashmir since 5 August 2019 when New Delhi revoked the special status of the territory and put it under military and police siege.
The report said that the troops have martyred over 96,230 innocent Kashmiris and subjected more than eight thousand to custodial disappearance since January 1989 till date for demanding their right to self-determination. It pointed out that unabated Indian state terrorism has rendered more than 22, 962 women widowed and over 107,908 children orphaned in the occupied territory during the period. It said Indian troops are using rape as a weapon of war to humiliate the Kashmiris and they have molested at least 11,259 women in the last thirty-four years.
“Kashmiris are enduring unspeakable atrocities every day for the last over 7 decades. They continue to become target of Indian state terrorism. People irrespective of gender and age are being subjected to extreme oppression in IIOJK,” it deplored.
The report maintained that anti-Muslim hatred has touched new heights in IIOJK since Modi came to power in India in 2014.—KMS
