With deep emotion and reverence we pay our respects and glorious tributes to our first Martyrs, who 95 years ago on this day, by their supreme sacrifice laid the foundation of the people’s struggle for justice, dignity and human rights. A struggle that continues.
It is painful and unfortunate that the people of Jammu Kashmir are prevented by force, from offering fatiha and paying homage to the martyrs, as all roads leading to Mazar-e-Shuhada, Naqshband Sahib, are blocked and barricaded and restrictions imposed around Jama Masjid Srinagar and I have once again been placed under house arrest.
Graveyards may be sealed, roads blocked and people confined, the Martyrs live in our hearts, and our collective memory for all times.
May Allah grant them and all the Shuhada e Jammu Kashmir the highest place in Jannah. Ameen.
Salam to Shuhada-e-Kashmir
More than 10,000 locals were hit by pellets in Kashmir from 2010- 2016, hundreds of them losing eyesight in one or both eyes. Ask their families how they have suffered.Dead eyes, crippled bodies.
Gutka Devgun: let's poke fun at them, rub in a little more!

Dear Indian Muslims GenZ,
Abhijeet Dipke (Chockroach Janta Party) is calling for protests, DO NOT JOIN. Not even close.
Do not go near the airport.
Donot show up. Do not even think about it.
Keep a full 10-kilometer distance.
This is a trap designed to destroy your future.
They will use you as cannon fodder, click pictures, get their headlines & vanish while you rot in jail, your education, career & life completely finished.
This is Hindutva ki Sarkar, the majority’s government. Let majority fight their own revolution.
Let them take the heat. Your fight is not on the streets today. Your fight is survival, excellence, and building power for tomorrow. Don’t be fools. Don’t get provoked. Don’t become their useful idiots.
Stay home. Stay smart. Stay safe. Protect your future like your life depends on it, because it does.

In an exclusive interview with Yeni Şafak English, Muzzammil Ayyub Thakur, director of the Kashmir Centre, described the brutality of the Indian army against Kashmiri Muslims.
Some facts : AAP didn't support the bifurcation of J&K state into two Union Territories. Neither locking down people.
AAP only supported the abrogation of article 370 keeping terrorism and separatism in mind.
Throughout all day I have struggled to log onto my Instagram account. Now I have been suspended. It is a small prize to pay for press freedom, but I’ve never experienced it before.
Declaring Jamia Siraj-ul-Uloom “unlawful” under UAPA is the latest act in a calculated dismantling of Kashmir’s civic life.
This is a school of 800+ students affiliated with the J&K Board, that has produced doctors, scholars, and professionals from homes that could never afford private education. Sealed by a divisional commissioner’s two-page order.
The pattern is unmistakable. Trusts, mosques, libraries, and now seminaries serving underprivileged children, every social and non-governmental institution that holds Kashmiri society together is being strangled.
Though separated by only a few yards, they could see the coffin but not the face of their loved one, nor could they offer funeral prayers together. In divided Jammu and Kashmir, not only families remain separated, grief and final rituals are divided as well.

Al Jazeera's piece on my mother's sentencing contains a serious omission regarding my father. It states he was "convicted for the murder of H. N. Wanchoo" without a single line representing our story. A reader walks away thinking my father is a murderer.

This is worse than Hitler. This is Genghis Khan. Calling him a terrorist would be an understatement. If this does not open the eyes of the world, I don’t know what would. This should tell you what Iran is standing up to and this should tell you about the mentality that has subjected the people of Palestine to worst kind of genocide and oppression.
The family strongly denied any militant links, stating that he was innocent and had been killed. They also pointed out that the clothes on the body did not match what he was wearing when he left home.

The family of Rashid Ahmad Mughal, killed in the Ganderbal encounter, says he was an innocent civilian with zero links to militancy.
His own clothes were changed. The Army refuses to reveal his identity.
These are gravely serious allegations. Silence from J&K Police is unacceptable.
We demand a time-bound, independent probe.
