They may have been a minority but at that time, they had monopolized government jobs, plum postings and other such social benefits. Barkha can be heard saying, “Today hapless victims, they were once privileged elites of the valley. Here is one such example where controversial charlatan journalist Barkha Dutt, can be seen talking about how the Kashmiri Pandits were wealthy in the valley as compared to Muslim majority of the region and this was one of the earliest reason of popular discontent in the state. When some journalists decided to “investigate” the forced exodus they could not resist inserting the discredited ‘class struggle’ theory. The so-called fourth pillar of the democracy has not shown any interest to the plight of Kashmiri Pandits as the transgressors were muslim. Some of them went ahead and claimed that no exodus or genocide of Kashmiri pandits has ever taken place and Kashmiri Pandits have “migrated on their own”, and their ‘displacement was self-imposed. Even worse, jhola-wallah secular brigade and their coteries shamelessly justified the exodus of Kashmiri pandits. It has been around three decades to the forced exodus and Kashmiri Pandits are still awaiting justice. In order to save their lives from Islamists, lakhs of Kashmiri Pandits left their homeland and became refugees in their own country. Kashmiri Hindus became the first casualties in the battle of political Islam. Notices were posted outside their homes asking them to leave their Kashmir immediately or face death and worse. Shops, business establishments and homes of Kashmiri Pandits, the original inhabitants of the Kashmir valley were looted and destroyed.

Walls were plastered with posters and handbills, issuing diktats to Kashmiri Pandits to strictly follow Islamic dress code hate speeches appealing to unleash violence against Kashmiri Pandits were made from the mosques. On that cold night, history and politics overlapped and a deluge swept across Kashmir, flushing out the Kaffirs (non-believers/non-Muslims), labeling them outsiders and making them refugees in their own country.Ĭenturies of co-existence were set aside as neighbors turned on their Kashmiri Pandits, taunting them to flee, leaving behind their womenfolk. The edifice of so-called ‘Kashmiriyat’ had finally been proven hollow, incapable of resisting the onslaught of a rabid, virulent strain of Islam. On a cold night in January 1990, the streets of Srinagar shook with these lethal chants. “Pakistan se kya Rishta? La Ilah-e- Illalah” (Islam defines our relationship with Pakistan) “Kashmir banega Pakistan” (Kashmir will become Pakistan) (We will turn Kashmir into Pakistan with Kashmiri Pandit women, but without their men)
