How Kashmir Killed Its Own Hindus | Full Documentary

Описание: This full documentary examines one of the gravest human rights tragedies in modern Indian history, the mass exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from the Kashmir Valley. Beginning with the ideological fallout of 1947 and moving step by step toward the night of 19 January 1990, the film explains how religious radicalization, Pakistan sponsored terrorism, local collaboration, political failure, and social silence combined to destroy a centuries old Hindu civilization in Kashmir. Between 1989 and 1991, an estimated 350000 to 400000 Kashmiri Pandits were forced to flee their homes after targeted killings, open threats, mosque loudspeaker announcements, and systematic intimidation. Independent reports and government data confirm that hundreds of Pandits were assassinated in targeted attacks, while thousands of homes, temples, and properties were destroyed or illegally occupied.

The documentary details the warning signs, including the 1986 communal riots, the rigged 1987 elections, the rise of armed Islamist groups backed by Pakistan’s ISI, and the deliberate normalization of hatred against Pandits by labeling them as enemies and informers. It also exposes the events of 19 January 1990, when explicit calls for conversion, expulsion, and sexual violence were broadcast across the valley, triggering a mass flight that was not ordered by the state but forced by terror.

Beyond the exodus, the film documents life in refugee camps, deaths due to disease and climate shock, decades of denied justice, and the continued fear that prevents safe return even today. This is not a story of revenge. It is a factual record of ethnic cleansing, societal collapse, and moral failure, and a warning about what happens when religious extremism is tolerated.
