Rising Discontent in Pakistan-Administered Kashmir: A Call for Economic Reforms

“Pakistan’s government must heed the calls for economic relief and political fairness to restore peace and ensure the well-being of the people in AJK” Maria Iqbal Tarana* The once relatively peaceful region of Pakistan-Administered Kashmir, also known as Azad Jammu Kashmir (AJK), was recently engulfed in unrest. The catalyst for this turmoil was the skyrocketing prices of essential goods such as…

Indian Army is supposedly using White Phosphorus on civilians in Kashmir - a war crime according to international law.

This is the "Kashmir is healing" that Hindutvadis talk about.

How long do they plan to use the pain of Kashmiri Hindus to justify this occupation?

to all Indians on this website, just because the trade union has refused to load and unload weapons to Isr*el from Indian ports doesn't mean the fight is over. we still need to pressurize the government to demand permanent ceasefire and to stop funding Isr*el in every way possible. so keep protesting, keep boycotting, keep donating to Palestinians. and remember we still need to fight for decolonization of Kashmir. so please dont stop talking about this!!

#non-indians please feel free to reblog this we cannot stop talking about Palestine and Kashmir #palestine #current events #india #kashmir #free palestine #free kashmir #gaza #free gaza

The Martand Sun Temple, Kashmir

Dedicated to Lord Surya, Hinduism's principal sun god; Surya Dev is also recognized through his Sanskrit name Martand.

It was made by King Lalitaditya in around 5th Century A.D. and it was destructed by Muslim ruler Sikander Butshikan, under the advice of Sufi preacher Mir Muhammad Hamadani. It is believed that the was so strongly built that it took many days for its destruction.

The temple has a colonnaded courtyard, with its primary shrine in its center and surrounded by 84 smaller shrines, stretching to be 220 feet long and 142 feet broad total and incorporating a smaller temple that was previously built.

The primary shrine is located in a centralised structure (the temple proper) that is thought to have had a pyramidal top - a common feature of the temples in Kashmir. Various wall carvings in the antechamber of the temple proper depict other gods, such as Vishnu Ji and river goddesses, such as Mata Ganga and Mata Yamuna, in addition to the sun-god Surya Dev.

Madras Cafe, 2013

The worst part is so many people genuinely have been brainwashed into thinking that Modi is the saviour of this nation, no he is not. Don’t call yourself Bhagat Singh if you are a right winger, especially a privileged right winger who benefits from this Hindutva Politics.

SEBASTIAN BEAR FATTENS UP FOR WINTER

Unlike the tropical sloth bear we talk about often, Himalayan brown bears live in areas with a temperate climate and hibernate during winter months when food is scarce. Gorgeous Sebastian (above) lives at our Dachigam Rescue Centre in Jammu and Kashmir (J&K), where the high elevations and brisk weather are better suited for him. J&K is in the far northwestern region of the Indian subcontinent in the foothills of Himalayan mountains.

so someone wrote the following tags on this post of mine (a story about my great grandmother and colonialism) and the tags have nothing to do with the original goal of the post. but since i was singled out for some reason, i’ll respond.

i’m sorry to break it to you but hinduphobia IS real. last navratri bangladeshi hindus had their temples demolished and their houses burned down. it is estimated that in 30 years there will be no more hindus left in bangladesh.

and there WAS a hindu genocide in kashmir. regardless of whether you’re left or right wing it should not be hard to discern that the exodus of kashmiri pandits in january 1990 was caused by a threat of genocide. they were told to flee, convert, or die. and so callously putting hindu genocide under quotes erases their trauma and experience. that’s why i defended the kashmir files. it did what it set out to do - give a voice to the kashmiri pandits once and for all. if you want to talk about the politics of the movie then find someone else. i don’t know much about indian politics to talk about it so i’d rather not say anything than say something damagingly ignorant, but i do know enough about kashmiri pandits and have seen enough of their survivor accounts to say that it was very clear that this was ethnic cleansing. my beauty parlor aunty herself is a refugee.

LASTLY as someone who has herself experienced bullying because of her hindu identity in america, it is incredibly ignorant, dare i say privileged, of you to say that hinduphobia is not a “genuine phenomenon.” i was made fun of for my bindi and was taunted by a classmate to eat beef. one time a white girl in preschool refused to play with me because i was both brown skinned and hindu. and there was a fucking GANG in jersey in the 1970′s called the dotbusters that SPECIFICALLY TARGETED HINDU WOMEN. please do not forget that even if hindus are a majority in india, they are ethnic, racial, and religious minorities in the rest of the world. so yes, hinduphobia is real. damn i wish it weren’t. but it is. and it is a desi issue. so i WILL tag this as hinduphobia AND desiblr. that’s all

#how can people be so invalidating?? you don't know about my experiences or what i've been through #i know most indians don't think highly of the diaspora but #living as both a racial and religious minority in america is not as easy as you think it is #hinduphobia may be a term exploited by right wing extremists for their own gain #but i assure you the phenomenon itself is real #hinduphobia #hindus #hindu #kashmiri pandits #kashmiri hindus #kashmir 1990 #bangladeshi hindus #bangladesh #desiblr #desi tumblr #desi tag #desi #indian
