[Reader-list] anti Kashmiri Hindu Pandit campaign abating..??...

[Lalit Ambardar]

 Dear all, 
 
With the intervention of the moderator herself, this uncalled for debate on the issue of the proposed exclusion of the Kashmiri Pandit members should come to an end now. 
 
It is hoped that anti Kashmiri Hindu Pandit campaign will finally subside.
 
Not that the targeted members would have lost any thing substantial, it is the agitated ones themselves who would have certainly felt deprived of the (sadistic) pleasure of the anticipated responses to their frequent insinuations against the exiled community. After all no one can deny that there has been a sustained & motivated campaign. Motivational factors could well be attributed in the following situations:
a)             a)    when Kashmiri Hindu Pandits are described as ‘swarms’ 
 
b)                 b)  when it is lamented that Kashmiri Hindu Pandits ‘did not stay back ‘ ( in Kashmir  valley) & protest against  ‘Indian occupation’ in  
( i           (Jammu & Kashmir ) knowing  well that Kashmiri Hindu Pandits like an overwhelming number of Kashmiri Muslims (whose voice
              remains stifled due to the fear of the gun as well as religious blackmail) & entire population of Jammu & Ladakh regions do not
              dispute accession & consider the state of Jammu & Kashmir as an integral part of India & that the Kashmiri Hindu Pandits were
              subjected to ethnic cleansing only because they were Hindus & that  they symbolised Indian presence in the valley
 
 
c)             c) when much effort is spent on research & analysis only to conclude sadistically that displaced Kashmiri Pandits- the victims of pan
              Islamic terrorism (now living as refugees in their own country for the past two decades) are a ‘favoured lot’ 
 
d)               d) when the founders of the ‘gun culture ‘ in the valley, not withstanding their own public  claim that they got indoctrinated & trained in
             Pakistan & that they ferried  weapons & escorting mercenaries to unleash mayhem in the valley,  who should be tried for crimes
            against humanity are projected as ‘leaders’  & even ‘chauffeured’ around & paraded as Gandhians (Mahatma must be turning in his
            Samadhi when ever a public positioning tamasha is enacted there) 
 
 
e)           e)  when hue & cry is raised over protests against the well known supporter (himself released on ‘technical grounds’ in the parliament
            attack case) of the  pan Islamism inspired Kashmiri separatism that has ruptured  the much acclaimed ‘Kashmiriyat ‘ beyond repair
           over his lecture on ‘brutal form of Hindu fascism in Jammu’ ( that is when the people of Jammu rose against the rabid intolerance of
           Kashmiri pan Islamists against the land allocation for Amarnath pilgrimage facilities) which obviously( the lecture ) ignored the war
           cries of Azadi- bara –e- Islam ( freedom through Islam)  that reverberated in Srinagar during the same Amarnath land row as well as
           the ethnic cleansing of Hindu Pandits in his own backyard 
 
f)               f)  when the pro Kashmiri pan Islamists propaganda film makers feign ignorance about the ethnic cleansing of the Hindu Pandits in the
            valley as well as about the war cries like ‘Azadi- bara –e- Islam’ ( freedom through Islam)  of their very protagonists 
 
 
g)           g) when Kashmiri Hindu Pandit groups in exile are selectively targeted & accused of divisiveness even while there is never a word of
          condemnation of those pan Islamism inspired groups & individuals responsible for the ethnic cleansing of the Kashmiri Hindu Pandits
          in the valley & are seeking secession of  Muslim majority Kashmir valley from India( that is home to more Muslims than there are in
          Pakistan) &  accession  with Pakistan knowing well that no Kashmiri Hindu Pandit groups have any political agenda that excludes
          Kashmiri Muslims - even Panun Kashmir’s demand of  a centrally administered enclave( union territory governed under  Indian
         constitution)  within the valley envisages home for the willing fellow Kashnmiri Muslims including Shias , Bakarwals , Gujjars & other
         marginalised groups 
 
 
Many thanks to all for saving the forum from becoming a gossip column for a single track mindset………
