India needs to push the word "ancient india" in all the media & academia as much as possible. just like how china did. whatever is brewing, is a direct hit at the indian civilizational continuity & history. An international project of erasure, that started with word "south asia"

Saira Baloch, the sister of forcibly disappeared Asif and Rasheed, stated that enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, and the recovery of Baloch bodies continue on a daily basis in Balochistan. She said that while those responsible remain free, voices demanding justice are being punished.

According to her, when Dr. Mahrang Baloch and Sibghatullah Shah Jee Baloch exposed these injustices and raised the issue internationally, they were met with arrests, fabricated cases, imprisonment, and life sentences. She questioned why those seeking justice are jailed, while those responsible for violence and enforced disappearances are never held accountable.

Bangladeshi Hindu girl Pritilata Roy was abducted and coercively converted to Islam for nikah slavery.
Islamism does not view Hindu girls as individuals with rights. It views them as targets for abduction, conversion, and sexual ownership under the cover of marriage.

میں لاپتہ ذاکر مجید کی ماں ہوں۔

پاکستانی ایجنسیوں نے ذاکر مجید کو 8 جون کو مستونگ، پڑنگ آباد سے حراست میں لیا، جو اب تک لاپتہ ہے۔ میں ذاکر مجید کی ماں، ڈاکٹر ماہ رنگ بلوچ اور شاہ جی کو دی گئی عمر قید کی سزا کی شدید الفاظ میں مذمت کرتی ہوں۔

ڈاکٹر ماہ رنگ ہر وقت ہم بلوچ ماؤں کے ساتھ پریس کلب کے سامنے موجود رہی ہیں۔ انہوں نے لاپتہ افراد کے لیے کام کیا ہے۔ یہ سزا صرف انہیں نہیں دی گئی، بلکہ میں اور ہزاروں مائیں بھی اس سزا میں شامل ہیں۔ آپ نے ڈاکٹر ماہ رنگ کو ہمارے سامنے سے لے جا کر سزا دی، اور ہمارے بچوں کو خفیہ طور پر اپنے فوجی اداروں میں سزا دی۔

میں تمام انسانی حقوق کے اداروں سے اپیل کرتی ہوں کہ ماہ رنگ اور شاہ جی کے لیے آواز اٹھائیں اور ماہ رنگ کو اس سزا سے آزاد کرائیں۔ بلوچ قوم اس سزا کے خلاف مزاحمت کرے اور باہر نکلے۔

Ruksana Baloch, sister of the missing Azeem Dost, appeal to the people of Balochistan and the Baloch nation to raise their voices for justice and accountability.

The sentencing of Dr. Mahrang Baloch and Shah Jee Baloch to life imprisonment is being seen as an act of trampling justice underfoot and an attempt to suppress peaceful voices.

The Baloch people, along with the entire world, are aware of the belief that false cases have been filed against Dr. Mahrang Baloch. Thousands, including myself, are witnesses that Dr. Mahrang and Shah Jee always urged protest participants to remain peaceful.

The official whose death was used as the basis of the case is widely reported in Gwadar to have died in a road accident.

Dr. Mahrang and the BYC leadership became the voice of the families of missing persons and are being punished for bringing their suffering to the attention of the world.

I appeal to the Baloch nation to raise its voice against state injustice against Dr. Mahrang and BYC, as this leadership was the shared voice of all of us.

According to Romila Thapar, the public prefers "easy" history because it can't understand academic writing. Maybe people aren't rejecting historians because the language is complicated. Maybe they're rejecting narratives that ignored temple destruction, whitewashed invasions, and treated Hindu civilizational perspectives with contempt.

[The Caravan @thecaravanindia]

Hindutva is not a religion and is not Hinduism. It was founded by Brahmanas belonging to the organisation called the RSS—Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh—in the early 1920s. It claimed a distinct Hindu identity which was intended as a Hindu control over Indian society. It internalised the colonial comprehension of Hinduism and the Indian past, disallowing the democratisation of Indian society. This is not new to historians, as the social control of religion over society has been written about at length. But this becomes a specific case relevant to the India of current times.

"The manner in which the cases of BYC's arrested leadership have suddenly been accelerated from jail courts to faceless trials conducted via video link, to repeated adjournments of hearing dates reflects a deep frustration and restlessness on the part of the judiciary. The repeated insistence of the prosecutor that the trial must proceed and that they must be convicted made it abundantly clear to us that the orders have come from above, and that the court will now move swiftly to complete its formalities.

The unjust sentence handed down on 22 June is not merely a travesty of a fair trial, it is the funeral of this country's own law and constitution, and it will stand as one of the darkest chapters in history. The very FIR upon which this conviction rests is itself contested: two separate FIRs have been registered over the same incident, charging a single individual with murder in two entirely different ways. This alone makes plain that this case does not exist in any legal or factual sense. And the manner in which this fabricated killing has been used as the basis to sentence our colleagues, BYC leaders to life imprisonment is nothing but the state's frustration, and its humiliation.

A question must be raised: if this case and this FIR regarding a killing genuinely existed, then why have BYC leaders been detained for the past fifteen months? If the evidence was there, why did it take so long — why were they first trapped under MPO before this case was constructed around them? All of this has been exposed before the entire world that how the state has used its own laws and constitution to imprison BYC leaders.

When extrajudicial killings, enforced disappearances, and mutilated bodies are dumped on a daily basis in Balochistan, I hold every security force, every brigadier, every colonel, every intelligence agency, MI, ISI, and all others — individually deserving of the severest accountability. They believe they have delivered justice. A person can only be called just when they apply the same standard to both sides.

It is clear what kind of deliberate conspiracy is at work in Balochistan. One aimed at suppressing the most prominent voices, at extinguishing in the hearts of the people the very concept of peaceful and organized struggle. But we will not be shaken. Living in this very ground, we will carry this struggle forward, we will carry the fight for human rights forward.

The mission that belonged to Dr. Mahrang and Saibgatullah Shahji belongs to all of us, to every child of Balochistan, and to every child who has witnessed state brutality and grown up under its shadow. And how many people will you throw into prisons? How many voices will you silence? You believe that through such tactics you can reduce people to silence but absolutely not. You have been doing exactly this for the past seventy-six years, and you have seen what the consequences have been.

Your every act of oppression has given birth to resistance. We consider this your greatest failure, and through our struggle, we will prove it to you."

[International Human Rights Foundation @IHRF_English]

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

International Human Rights Foundation (IHRF) Condemns Shameful Life Sentence for Dr. Mahrang Baloch and Sibghatullah Shah by Pakistani Authorities

The Hague, The Netherlands – June 23, 2026 – The International Human Rights Foundation (IHRF) expresses its strongest condemnation regarding the reprehensible life sentence handed down by a Pakistani Anti-Terrorism Court to prominent human rights defender Dr. Mahrang Baloch and her colleague, Sibghatullah Shah .

This verdict is a blatant miscarriage of justice and a devastating blow to the rule of law in Pakistan. Dr. Baloch, a leader of the Baloch Yakjehti Committee (BYC), has been a fearless and peaceful voice for the Baloch people, courageously campaigning against enforced disappearances, extrajudicial killings, and state repression in Balochistan . Her only crime is her dedication to exposing grave human rights violations .

The IHRF is deeply alarmed by the egregious procedural irregularities and denial of due process that characterized this “secret trial” . A proceeding that denies the accused the right to effectively cross-examine witnesses or present a proper defense, held in a “faceless court” on jail premises, cannot be considered a legitimate judicial process . This is not justice; it is a politically motivated weaponization of the judicial system to silence dissent and intimidate human rights defenders .

We echo the calls of Amnesty International and other international bodies, who have condemned this verdict as an affront to the right to a fair trial . The state’s cynical misuse of anti-terrorism laws to prosecute peaceful activism represents a dangerous escalation in the crackdown on fundamental freedoms in Pakistan .

The IHRF urges the Government of Pakistan to immediately and unconditionally release Dr. Mahrang Baloch and Sibghatullah Shah, and to ensure their safety and well-being.

We call upon the international community, including the United Nations Human Rights Council, to:

1. Denounce this injustice and place Pakistan under close scrutiny for its escalating human rights violations.
2. Demand transparency in all legal proceedings against human rights defenders and a full investigation into the circumstances of this case.
3. Pressure Pakistani authorities to cease the persecution of peaceful activists and uphold their international obligations regarding due process and fundamental rights.

The IHRF stands in solidarity with Dr. Mahrang Baloch, Sibghatullah Shah, and all peaceful activists in Pakistan who risk their lives for justice and human dignity.

I strongly condemn this development. Silencing voices that speak for their communities is unlikely to serve Pakistan well, instead, it may lead to even stronger expressions of dissent.

He asked India to immediately stop such actions, warning that they risk leading to the disintegration and perennial chaos of India. He called for an immediate halt to such actions and urged the protection of minority rights and shared cultural heritage.

Absolutely. Delivery riders face this every single day.
A customer can make a false complaint, mark an order as "not delivered," or simply give a bad rating, and the rider is often presumed guilty before being heard. Wallet deductions, account blocks, and loss of incentives happen with little to no investigation. The saddest part is that there is no strong union or collective voice for gig workers. The people who are literally the backbone of these platforms are treated as disposable. Companies proudly call them "partners," but when disputes arise, they rarely stand by them as partners.
