Yes most definitely bro.
How do you recommend we do so?
Minimum we could do is to share these kind of docu. with all our relatives/friends/... EVEN non South Asians.
Yeah but how effective is that?I often school indians I come across in real life on the kashmir issue but that doesnt change anything.
http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/...ightmare-in-UK-media/articleshow/14833818.cmsLate on Tuesday, Britain's Channel 4 screened an hour-long TV documentary virtually challenging India's credentials as a democracy, accusing security forces in Jammu & Kashmir of being responsible for disappearances of 8,000 Kashmiri civilians and extra-judicial executions in the past 22 years as well as for rape and torture.
The same day, the UK's Guardian newspaper carried an extended piece on the same subject in a clearly co-ordinated assault against India's human rights record.
The lacunae in the programme, though, was that no neutral party, let alone authorities in J&K or at the Centre were given an opportunity to express their point of view. Strangely, the production team was in the Kashmir valley at the time of last year's stone-pelting incidents in which over 100 youths were killed. There are questions being asked whether they were tipped off by those who planned the demonstrations.
The central figure in the documentary is a dignified, seemingly progressive and secular advocate at the J&K high court, Pervez Imroz. He was portrayed as diligently compiling complaints of disappearances, rape and torture; and filing cases in court on these.
Imroz was in 2005 awarded the Ludovic-Trarriux International Human Rights Prize but was, allegedly, unable to accept this in person because he wasn't issued a passport. He is behind the discovery of more than 2,000 unmarked graves which chief minister Omar Abdullah last year described as being mostly unclaimed bodies of foreign militants. Imroz termed the graves "prima facie evidence of war crimes".
Atta Muhammad Khan, a white-haired man from Bimyar village, described how he was forced to inter bullet-riddled unidentified bodies in the middle of the night.
The programme depicted gruesome examples of torture. One woman claimed on camera that she was raped by security forces when she was 16 and still in school.

imo most indians are already educated on the issue, the fact of the matter, as evidenced by previous discussions on kashmir on this forum, is that for most indians Kashmir is an ego issue.
if they were rational about it, they would see how much tax payer money the occupation wastes, how many people have been killed, how much grief has been caused and accept the inevitable.
no politician can do anything about it however as it would be political suicide and an open display of apparent failure, and as is with most third world countries the apparent facade of success and power is vital in maintaining indias apparent strength in the global pecking order.
the eventual subjugation of Kashmir can be thought of as a very small scale manifest destiny, a milestone on the path to the promised land of indian political and economic superiority in the region.
in this context the lack of worth of Kashmiri people, as opposed to what Kashmir represents to the average indian becomes totally understandable.
I didn't want to post in this thread as some will make it a personal battle against me but let me post a video which will answer your question through Indian Muslim's words
watch it from 4:25.
i am afraid that sounds like a cop out to me senman, he cannot just say it becomes complicated at the cost of an average kashmiri when pakistan shows an interest in it, and not explain further.
there is no denying in the past certain forces within the pakistani security forces have exploited the kashmiri situation, however if you read contempory accounts in books, and see the program posted above, the agitators hardly ever mention pakistan.
as far as my knowledge goes hardly any kashmiris on indias side express any desire to unite with pakistan, yet the agitation and trouble remains primarily in defiance of the indian state and army. it is the constant disregard of this truth, that further worsens the problem imo.
Ok I understand your views. Let this be the last post of me in this thread as I don't like to involve in circular debates where the points gets recycled again and again. Ok here it goes, as an Indian we (not just me but my friends, which includes persons from all faiths) think its amusing that Pakistan like to talk about Kashmir but not Uighur or Balochistan, while we do appreciate your concern for Kashmiris, the best approach for Pakistan is to take a long step backwards and let Kashmir people and elected leaders deal with this. That is the best thing Pakistan do for Kahmiris.

His roti depends on that, he's a slave to his salary as a Bollywood pithoo so he doesn't come across as the most impartial out there, he'll have to answer to Allah when on a question about Kashmir he read the manufactured script by summoning the Pakistan bogeyman like the Indian establishment loves to do.
^ Blind nationalism trumps humanity.
Yes most definitely bro.
How do you recommend we do so?
I for one think Kashmir valley uniting with Pakistan would end the conflict. Everybody agrees with that.
and that is precisely the reason india will never let it go, despite the cost.
if pakistan was not in the equation the kashmir issue would have been solved ages ago.

So you'd support an independent Kashmir, right ?
Many of the actions of the Indian state, police and army in J&K have been reprehensible and more needs to be done to give justice to the victims of their actions.
That said, J&K will never be allowed to cede from the Indian Union and for numerous reasons:
1 - Water, Money and Agriculture: look at what India is spending on Dams or water projects. 10s of billions with much more to come. An independent or a Pak controlled Kashmir would order an immediate stop to Indian water projects in the Valley. Electricity generated from dams already there would no longer be used in northern India.
2 - Poltics: This is one issue which all Indian parties actually agreee on. Even the commies don't go against the status quo here.
3 - The valley's strategic location means it acts as a buffer for India, between itself and Pakistan (and China). An independent Kashmir needs some form of security and as a new nation would not have any sort of decent Army to speak of. So firstly, they'd invite Pakistani troops onto their lands to make sure India does not try and invade to regain land. It would be disaster for India.
4 - those who have power in the world (America, the EU, China, Russia, the OIC nations) do not care. India knows it can do what it wants without any chance of international sanctions.
Barring a fully fledged armed attack by the Pakistani army to 'liberate' J&K, the status quo will remain for at least another 100 years.

yes but not at the cost of creating another anti indian state . it makes no sense for india to facilitate creation of a country which will harm its geopolitical interests in the region , because its pretty much a given that the independent state will align itself with pak. it all comes back to this:till india and pak don't resolve their own issues, india will not allow a pro-pak independent country to be created from its territory.
plus all the points that gabbar singh raised.
India has taken Kashmir forever.No amount of propaganda from can actually change the status quo.
LAHORE: For most people, Kashmir is an intractable problem dividing India and Pakistan. What they don't know is that the two countries have actually an accord on Kashmir ready and had almost unveiled it in 2007.
Khurshid Mahmud Kasuri, who was Pervez Musharraf's foreign minister from 2002 to 2007, on Friday told The Times of India of this hush-hush deal that was cobbled together through secret parleys held in India, Pakistan and several foreign capitals for more than three years and could have resolved the sub-continent's thorniest security and political dispute, had not the anti-Musharraf upsurge triggered by the sacking of the chief justice convulsed Pakistan.
Kasuri said he has never spoken of this track-II success earlier, other than saying that he knew of a possible way to resolve the Kashmir problem that was acceptable to both countries.
Kasuri said in an exclusive interview that negotiators from Islamabad and New Delhi had quietly toiled away for three years, talking to each other and Kashmiri representatives from the Indian side as well as Kashmiris settled overseas to reach what he described as the "only possible solution to the Kashmir issue".
He said the two sides had agreed to full demilitarisation of both Jammu & Kashmir as well as Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, which Islamabad refers to as Azad Kashmir. In addition, a package of loose autonomy that stopped short of the 'azadi' and self-governance aspirations, had been agreed on and was to be introduced on both sides of the disputed frontier. "We agreed on a point between complete independence and autonomy," he said.
Kasuri said that both countries, realizing the sensitivity of such a deal, had agreed not to declare victory or tom-tom the negotiations. He said that hardline separatist Syed Ali Shah Gilani was the only Kashmiri leader who refused to come on board. "He would accept nothing but merger with Pakistan, which ironically is something we too wanted but knew wasn't practical. I once had a seven-to-eight hour meeting with him and even Musharraf met him but he refused to budge," Kasuri said. He refused to give details of the stance other moderate Kashmiri leaders adopted.
Kasuri said almost all the actors on the Kashmiri stage were on board the accord that was to be signed during a visit by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to Islamabad that was scheduled for February-March 2007 but never happened.
"I advised the president that inviting the PM at that time would not have been possible. And that we should wait for a more peaceful moment to announce the plan otherwise all the hard work of three years by the two sides would be wasted," he said, referring to the time when Musharraf was under siege by a country-wide lawyers' campaign that had transformed itself into an anti-dictator movement. He said that since the Opposition was on a roll against Musharraf at that time, any peace plan would have been rejected by them as a "sell-out to India".
Kasuri — who is from one of the country's pre-eminent political families and whose father drafted Pakistan's constitution — refused to give details of other aspects of the solution or name Indian officials involved in the deal, saying that since he felt it was the only way Kashmir could be resolved, it could be starting point of next round of talks. He said the reason PM Gilani had appointed Riyaz Mohammed Khan, the foreign secretary under Kasuri, as the track-II special negotiator was because he was one of the key architects of the secret Kashmir pact.
Indian army commits Delhi bus type rapes in Kashmir every day but you dont see protests from Indians , their media ....why ???
Documentary says 700k Indian army personals. Thats grossly incorrect debunked many times.
For those who dont understand the situation and not sure who to believe. This is a neutral source and a must see docu.
Documentary says 700k Indian army personals. Thats grossly incorrect debunked many times.
Most independant media have reported such figures but please prove the correct figure? Lets see it.
I believe this video has the nos:
1. India has over 2.1 million people including reserves in the army, hes around 1 million people off the mark.
2. He has shown no proof or even given a figure.
3. He's Indian, I cited independent sources. You can aslo check Al Jazeeras report today.
Please Im not an Indian brainwashed, you will need to do much better if you want to debate.
He gave his no - 270k (all total including CRPF, Army & BSF)

Because at this time, Modi and Shah have moved on from revoking 370. They are busy preparing the next gift for Pakistan, which is also a very old issue.
[MENTION=43583]KingKhanWC[/MENTION]I feel for you and I say that with some respect. You are spending all your waking moments trying to move mountains in this Kashmir issue by typing away on this forum. Yet, nothing you write here is going to make a difference. Nada. Zilch. Zero.
Instead what could make a difference is if you write to your Foreign Minister and PM, asking them why not one country from the Ummah has condemned India for revoking 370. Ask them why the foreign office is not demanding of the King of Saudi Arabia to call a press conference and blast India.
Ask Respected Pak FM Qureshi ji, why he is not blasting the Shiekh of UAE for not calling a press conference and highlighting Pakistan's pain regarding Indian Union Territory of Kashmir.
Ask Qureshi ji to demand Iranian President to go on TV and speak about Kashmir.
Ask Imran Khan Saheb ji, to please call OIC and demand them to call an emergency session where they will call Imran Khan Saheb ji and Qureshi ji as Guest of honor, and from where Imran Khan Saheb and Qureshi ji, can give a joint statement along with all members of OIC condemning India and giving India a deadline to roll back revocation of 370.
Ask Imran Khan Saheb ji, to call Chinese President Xi Jinping Saheb ji, and tell him to immediately hold a press conference and call out India for revoking 370. In that conversation Imran Khan Saheb, can also kindly remind Xi Jingping ji to give out a strong statement condemning himself for the atrocities against Uighur muslims in China.
Also have Imran Khan Saheb have Trump and Putin hold press conferences and give voice to all of Pakistan's problems.
Most importantly, since Pakistan has always spoken and fought for the Palestinian brothers and sisters, I am saddened that Palestinian brothers and sisters have totally ignored your pain regarding revoking 370 in Indian Kashmir. Time to give Palestinian Authority leadership a call from Pakistan Foreign Office, demanding of them to hold a press conference and demand India to roll back 370.
The above actions are the only ways you can make any difference on the ground.

Good luck with the above action items.
There is nothing to "expose" there. It's a given fact that Indian forces have dealt with Kashmiri terrorism in a high handed and brutal way.
But that's how Indian or any third world forces deal with any insurgency. Thats what these guys with high school education are capable of. Has China dealt with the Tibet or Uygur rebellion in a more humane way? Of course, not.
Dont feel for me, no pandit extremist here in the UK would abuse me or any Indian for that matter. I am posting on time pass, passing time and it's my right to defend innocent people which is what Im doing.
Ive been on this forum for a decade and my main interest is cricket but I will pass time on such subjects too. I feel for you writing long essays full of nonsense because you are in some cuckoo land thinking IOK will become Europe in a few months when in reality it will become like Syria in a few years. The people will never call themselves Indians and will continue to resist until judgement day, even you know this.
Pakistan can only highlight the issue and this is enough to upset Indians and make them do foolish things as they have done now.
When you soldiers keep getting killed, then please write their obituaries, I will be happy to read your posts then but now it's embarrasing to read such crap.
