With deep sorrow, this is to inform you that Haji Khazir Mohammad Sheikh Sahib, father of incarcerated MP Baramulla Er Rashid Sahib, passed away at AIIMS last night.
@errashid11
Reportedly my jailed father Hon’ble MP Baramulla @errashid11 escaped fatal assault inside Tihar Jail.
The news has shaken me to the core. My father, an elected MP, has narrowly escaped a murderous attack inside jail.
I fear what this will do to my family. My mother and grandparents are already fragile in health. If they hear the full truth, I do not know how they will bear it.
My father is not only a political leader. He is our support, our guide, and the heart of our home. To see him treated like this, far from us, left at the mercy of hostile forces, is unbearable. No prisoner deserves to be exposed to such danger. The authorities are responsible for his safety. The country and the world must not look away.
I appeal for immediate protection for my father and all Kashmiri detainees. Their lives must not be left to chance. Their dignity must not be stripped away inside prison walls.

Today marks 6 years since my father, @errashid11 , was taken miles away from us, not just from our home, but from his people, his land, his life’s mission.
During these years, he suffered, not only behind the bars of a prison, but in the quiet moments of longing for his loved ones, for the air of his homeland, for the cause he stood for. And we suffered too. as a family, as a people, as a community that knew his heart, his commitment.
Over the years I had to grow up fast, witnessing my mother carry unbearable burdens in silence, pain and isolation, all for the absence of a man who gave everything to stand up for his people.
To be jailed miles away from home is not just physical separation, it’s emotional exile. And still, through it all, we never stopped believing in his strength, in his innocence, in his unwavering spirit.
We will continue to wait, not in silence, but with resilience. We carry forward his voice, his cause, and the love he planted in our hearts.
Justice delayed is not justice served.
#WATCH | Srinagar, J&K: Jailed Baramulla MP Abdul Rashid Sheikh alias Engineer Rashid's son, Abrar Rashid, says, "He will begin his 24-hour hunger strike from 8 pm tonight. This is in protest against the continual denial of the democratic rights to the people of J&K. The national parties, be it Congress or the BJP, have to be reminded how they have suppressed the rights of Kashmiris. You are debating on the issue of Emergency, you are taunting each other but you have conveniently forgotten Kashmiris...They also have to be told how thousands of Kashmiri youth are in jail, be it within J&K or outside J&K, like in Tihar. Nobody cares about them...This will be a symbolic protest against the regimes that have failed on every platform. The current government had asked for votes in the name of Article 370, but today we are begging for even Statehood. So, the UT Government has failed. They have not taken the stand which they should have..."
Shocked and deeply saddened to hear about the sudden demise of Aamir Amin Bhat, Probationary DySP from Ujroo Langate.
Gone far too soon.
Heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family in this unimaginable time. May his soul rest in peace.
She then resorted to every attempt to label my oppressed father as BJP backed, because the court allowed him to walk out for a few days after spending more than 5 years and continue in jail.
Hear her words out and introspect. Lady has no problem if 370 is gone, all they care about is power and Chair. I wonder how they sleep after betraying and lying to innocent people and repeat.
May u live long My leader My Father.
Met my father @errashid11 shb in tihar jail today who is on indefinite hunger strike from last 4 days.
He has lost 5 kgs in just 4 days but his spirit remains high.Let everyone be aware that we are not going to bow down and give up.
