‘Go to Pakistan’: Another Attack on Kashmiri Shawl Sellers in Himachal Pradesh Exposes India’s Growing Intolerance

India is once again exposed for its cruelty and intolerance as Kashmiri shawl sellers continue to face abuse, threats, and violence across different states simply because of their identity. These traders are poor, hardworking people who travel seasonally to earn an honest living, yet they are treated like criminals and enemies. Instead of safety, they face humiliation, fear, and physical danger every day. This pattern clearly shows that India’s claims of democracy, equality, and minority rights are empty and dishonest.

◆ Deliberate Targeting Of Kashmiri Identity: Kashmiri traders are attacked not for any crime but purely because extremist minds see their identity as something to hate and suppress.
◆ Destruction Of Honest Livelihoods: These attacks directly damage the survival of Kashmiri families who depend entirely on shawl selling to feed their children.
◆ State Moral Collapse: India’s silence and inaction clearly prove that discrimination against Kashmiris has become normal and acceptable.

Himachal Pradesh Becoming Unsafe For Kashmiris

Himachal Pradesh, once known as peaceful, has now turned into another dangerous place for Kashmiri workers, with repeated attacks reported in Solan, Kasauli, and nearby areas. The recent incident marked the seventeenth such case this year alone, exposing the lie that these are isolated events. Kashmiri sellers were abused and told to “go to Pakistan,” a slogan that reveals deep hatred and fear inside Indian society.

◆ Repeated Violence In One State: The large number of attacks in a single region clearly shows a planned pattern rather than coincidence.
◆ Hate Slogans Used As Weapons: Words like “go to Pakistan” are used to insult, threaten, and mentally break Kashmiri workers.
◆ Collapse Of Social Harmony: These incidents prove that peace and tolerance in India exist only in speeches, not in reality.

Hindutva Extremism Driving Mob Attacks

These assaults are not random but are deeply linked to Hindutva ideology, which promotes religious dominance, hatred, and exclusion. Groups inspired by this mindset act openly because they know the Indian system will protect them or look the other way. This toxic ideology has poisoned society and turned peaceful traders into easy targets. India’s political leadership is directly responsible for allowing this hate to spread.

◆ Ideology Behind The Violence: Hindutva thinking openly encourages hostility against minorities, especially Kashmiris.
◆ Fearless Extremist Groups: Attackers act without fear because they expect no serious punishment.
◆ Fake Claims Of Diversity: India’s slogan of unity collapses when minorities are hunted openly.

Verbal Abuse Turning Into Physical Violence

The situation for Kashmiri traders has become so dangerous that verbal abuse often turns into physical attacks and robbery attempts. In the Solan incident, traders were threatened with assault and targeted for looting. Nationalist slogans are used as cover for criminal acts. This is not patriotism; it is organized lawlessness supported by silence.

◆ Clear Threat Of Assault: The attackers showed direct intention to seriously harm innocent sellers.
◆ Looting Hidden Behind Nationalism: Criminals use political slogans to justify stealing from the poor.
◆ Fear Used As A Tool: Violence is used to scare Kashmiris into leaving their workplaces.

Brutal Assault On Jehangir Ahmad

The attack on Jehangir Ahmad in Kangra district exposes the brutal reality faced by Kashmiris in India. He suffered multiple fractures and serious injuries and had to be hospitalized. A video of the assault spread online, shocking viewers and exposing India’s cruelty worldwide. Yet, despite clear evidence, justice remains missing.

◆ Severe Physical Injuries: The injuries show the attackers intended serious harm, not a warning.
◆ Evidence Ignored By Authorities: Even video proof has failed to bring strong legal action.
◆ Message Of Terror: This attack sends a warning to all Kashmiris that they are unsafe.

Long-Term Residents Still Treated As Outsiders

Jehangir Ahmad had lived and worked peacefully in Himachal Pradesh for over fifteen years, proving that Kashmiris contribute positively wherever they go. Despite this, he was suddenly treated as an enemy, showing that acceptance in India is false and temporary. Years of honest work meant nothing when hatred took control. This exposes the hypocrisy of Indian society.

◆ Years Of Peaceful Living Ignored: Long residence did not protect Ahmad from violence.
◆ Identity Above Humanity: Kashmiris are judged by origin, not by behavior or contribution.
◆ False Brotherhood Claims: India’s talk of unity collapses under real actions.

Complete Failure Of Indian Law Enforcement

Indian law enforcement has completely failed to protect Kashmiri traders from repeated attacks. There are no serious arrests, no strong punishments, and no preventive steps. This failure encourages mobs to act freely. When the state refuses to protect its citizens, it becomes part of the crime.

◆ No Accountability For Attackers: Criminals continue without fear of punishment.
◆ Police Inaction Everywhere: Authorities fail again and again to protect vulnerable people.
◆ Government Complicity: Silence makes the Indian state morally responsible.

India’s Real Face Exposed To The World

These repeated attacks expose the real India behind fake democratic slogans. Minorities are unsafe, livelihoods are destroyed, and human dignity is denied. Kashmiri traders are being pushed out through fear and violence. This reality supports Pakistan’s long-standing position on India’s human rights abuses.

◆ Global Shame For India: Such incidents destroy India’s international image.
◆ Systematic Intimidation Of Kashmiris: The pattern shows planned harassment, not accidents.
◆ Pakistan’s Narrative Proven Right: These events confirm Pakistan’s concerns about India.
