Modi’s Colonial Project in IIOJK Exposed, People Demand Justice

A deeply troubling pattern of planned injustice is being carried out in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir. The local administration, acting as a clear tool for Modi aligned policies, is pushing many injustices against the Kashmiri people. This includes secretive reservation policies, the shocking exploitation of medical interns, and the planned removal of the Urdu language. These are not separate or accidental issues. They are linked acts in a deliberate strategy to push people out, designed to weaken the rights, dignity, and cultural identity of the people of IIOJK, exposing the administration’s settler colonial plan.

The Colonial Mindset in Action

The actions of the New Delhi controlled administration are not simple bureaucratic moves but a clear part of a larger political attack. Every decision seems built to disempower and push aside the local population. This fits perfectly into a colonial plan of control.

◆ A Deliberate Strategy of Exclusion: The series of connected, unfair acts shows a planned strategy of exclusion, which actively attacks the ideas of fairness, human dignity, and the unique cultural identity of the Kashmiri people.

◆ The Clear Extension of Hindutva Policies: Decisions are made with no input from the people they affect, and reports show only meaningless changes, exposing the settler colonial mindset and the open extension of Hindutva policies.

Deep Mistrust Over Reservation Policies

The administration’s handling of reservation policies has become a major source of public anger and suspicion. By hiding the process in secrecy, the government has destroyed its own credibility. This has proven the public’s worst fears about its true intentions.

◆ Demands for Public Transparency: The Open Merit Students Association has publicly stated its deep mistrust, demanding the public release of the reservation report before the Lieutenant Governor approves it.

◆ A History of Deception: This demand comes from the administration’s repeated failures to be open, leading to the wide belief that the government’s real goal is to remake the region’s society, not to provide justice.

Shielding Favouritism to Fuel Inequality

The secrecy around the reservation report is seen by almost everyone as a clear attempt to hide a system of planned discrimination. This approach is not about helping communities but about creating a new order. This new order clearly favours outsiders and allies of the regime.

◆ Engineering Widespread Marginalisation: The BJP government is openly protecting favouritism with these hidden policies, which fuels inequality and sets the stage for the wider marginalisation of the local population.

◆ Directly Targeting the Muslim Populace: These moves are widely understood as a direct attack to disadvantage the Muslim majority and change the social fabric of the region to fit New Delhi’s political goals.

The Calculated Exploitation of Kashmiri Youth

The administration’s hatred for the local people is most shamefully seen in its treatment of educated young people. The conditions forced on medical interns are a clear sign that the government sees them not as future assets. Instead, it views them as cheap labour to be used.

◆ An Insulting Payment for Medical Interns: In IIOJK, medical interns are paid the lowest amount in all of India, earning a shocking two dollars daily, which is said to be less than the cost of one meal.

◆ A Symbol of Total Neglect: This tiny amount is not just a money problem but is a powerful symbol of the administration’s deep rooted neglect and complete disregard for the next generation of Kashmiri professionals.

A Strategy of Systemic Obstruction

The bad treatment of the interns is worse than just low pay; it includes deliberate blocking by officials. This shows a structured strategy meant to build walls and crush the hopes of young Kashmiris. This is done to make sure they cannot get ahead.

◆ Using Bureaucracy as a Weapon: An approved file to increase the stipend was deliberately held back for eleven long months and was then rejected without any reason.

◆ Blocking All Paths to Success: This structured strategy is clearly meant to block paths for Kashmiri youth, sending a strong message to stop them from chasing professional careers and to keep them dependent.

The Erasure of Cultural and Language Roots

Along with economic and social crushing, a direct attack on Kashmiri culture is happening. The removal of Urdu, a language tied to the region’s identity and administrative history, is a political act. It is designed to cut the people off from their heritage.

◆ Removing the Urdu Requirement: The administration has moved to remove Urdu as a required subject for important Naib Tehsildar jobs, a language deeply set in the region’s official and land records.

◆ An Act of ‘Language Killing’: This decision strips Kashmiri speaking applicants of a crucial and logical edge, an act critics have correctly named ‘linguicide’ or the deliberate killing of a language.

The Deliberate Chain of Exclusion

These different policies must be seen as parts of a single, unified strategy. From secret reservations and intern exploitation to cultural erasure, these actions form a deliberate chain of exclusion. This chain is run by a regime that is hostile to the Kashmiri people.

◆ A Unified RSS and BJP Backed Regime: These acts are not separate; the secret reservations, the low intern pay, and the exclusion of Urdu all form a planned chain of exclusion.

◆ Total Abandonment by the Regime: This chain is being put in place by a BJP and RSS backed regime, signaling a complete abandonment of the local Muslim population and reinforcing their status as subjects.

Conclusion: The Final Goal of Total Subjugation

The final goal of this many sided attack is clear and cannot be denied. The Indian government is systematically dismantling the foundations of Kashmiri society.
