A military dictatorship in civilian clothes doesn't abolish the press. It strangles its circulation, its advertising and its distribution until closing is the only option.
Terrorism robbed many Kashmiri families of peace and normal life. Today, seeing girls play cricket late at night, surrounded by cheering crowds, brings a different kind of happiness. A peaceful Kashmir means a brighter future for everyone.
A family has the right to bid farewell to its loved ones with dignity. Keeping the bodies of people in custody in POJK raises deeply troubling questions.
No political dispute can justify ignoring the grief of families waiting for the return of their loved ones.
Peaceful dissent should never become a death sentence. Reports of killings during protests in #PoJK deserve an independent and impartial investigation. The international community must ensure that the truth is established and the rights of civilians are protected.
Information warfare rewards the side with credible ground truth. When PoK residents post their own footage of protests, Islamabad's messaging machinery competes with its own occupied residents.
Panchsheel. 2022: "This is not an era of war." 2026: attacks on civilians "must cease immediately". Seven decades, one line: sovereignty, settlement, civilian protection. #Panchsheel#IndiaForeignPolicy

Electoral integrity extends beyond polling day; it encompasses candidate eligibility, media access, transparent counting, and equal treatment of parties.
Pakistan's recent elections raised serious, persistent questions across these dimensions
Young voices in #POJ refuse to be managed, monitored or muzzled by the Pak army. The #040ctober long march is a declaration that Pakistan's Kashmir propaganda has lost its audience.
Muslim World League's 2019 Charter of Mecca show that religious consensus against extremism is emerging from within Muslim societies. The challenge now is implementation: embedding these principles in curricula, regulating hate speech, and holding preachers and institutions fully
The insider threat compounds the problem. An actor with legitimate access circumvents perimeter screening, making insider risk one of the most intractable challenges in aviation security, of which radicalisation is one recognised pathway.
