Mysterious Disease Claims More Lives in IIOJK, Sparking Panic and Anger

A deadly, unidentified disease continues to spread in Budhal village, claiming 16 lives, including 12 children, and leaving the community in fear as authorities fail to act.

A mysterious disease has struck Budhal village in Rajouri district, Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), claiming the life of another victim, Jatti Begum, a 60-year-old woman. Her death raises the toll to 16, including 12 children, sending shockwaves through the community and igniting panic among residents. The illness remains unexplained, with no clear diagnosis or effective response from the authorities.

Jatti Begum, the wife of Muhammad Yousuf, had already lost her husband to the same unknown disease. Tragically, she had also lost five grandchildren, the children of her nephew, to the illness just days earlier. The series of deaths in her family has left the village devastated and desperate for answers.

The lack of effective action from the authorities has sparked widespread outrage. Residents are frustrated by the apparent indifference of the occupation government, whose slow and inadequate response has only fueled the crisis. Despite the alarming number of deaths, there has been no decisive action or thorough investigation to uncover the cause of the illness or implement measures to prevent further fatalities.

Community members have expressed their anger at the absence of proper medical interventions, with many highlighting the absence of basic healthcare resources to address the crisis. The villagers demand accountability from the authorities, insisting on urgent medical investigations and preventive measures to stop the spread of the disease. “We have lost too many lives already, and yet, nothing is being done,” said one local resident. “The authorities must act now to save us.”

The continuing deaths and the lack of response from local officials have fueled a growing sense of fear and frustration. The situation in Budhal village has brought attention to the broader issues of healthcare and governance in IIOJK, where many communities struggle with inadequate medical services and delayed interventions during times of crisis.

As the death toll continues to rise, residents remain fearful and uncertain about their future. The community’s desperate plea for action underscores the urgent need for a comprehensive response to the health crisis, including thorough investigations into the disease’s cause and immediate measures to safeguard the population.
