On August 5, India unilaterally announced the abrogation of the special autonomous status granted to Jammu and Kashmir within its constitution.
What has followed has reminded the world of the extremism and xenophobia that still plagues it. It has forced everyone from international media to human rights organizations and legislators in the Western world to call the right-wing Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led Indian government out on its actions. And for good reason.
A child born in Indian-occupied Kashmir (IoK) in the last month will have lived the entirety of his or her life never having been afforded fundamental human rights.https://edition.cnn.com/2019/09/27/opinions/let-kashmir-speak-qureshi/index.html
