Start dialogue with Pakistan and Kashmiris, Mehbooba Mufti urges India

Meanwhile, an analytical report released by Research Section of KMS says the people of IIOJ&K continued to suffer immensely due to unrelenting military siege and harsh restrictions imposed by Narendra Modi-led fascist Indian government since August 05, 2019.

It said India is following Israeli model of repression in IIOJK and Indian forces’ personnel are using pellet firing shotguns to kill and maim the Kashmiris.
