We should be ashamed of atrocities in IoK, accepts Indian journalist

KARACHI: Senior Indian journalist Prem Shankar Jha said on Monday said that the Indian government should be ashamed of its atrocities in Indian Occupied Kashmir.

“Police rule won’t end Kashmiris fight for freedom,” he remarked while speaking on Geo News’ show, Capital Talk.

He also added that about seven million Indian forces have been deployed in Kashmir but these forces won’t be able to suppress the voice of Kashmiris.

“After seeing the conditions of Kashmir, I want to die of shame,” he claimed, adding “the path we are on will lead us to hell.”

In the recent times, Indian aggression in Indian-occupied Kashmir has reached unprecedented levels. Thousands of Kashmiris have been martyred for raising their voice against the violence.
