War Hysteria & the Kashmir Dispute: We need peace-mongering, not Indian media’s warmongering. Be it conventional or non-conventional, war in both terms is a great catastrophe for the humanity. In the annals of history, we find great wars that were fought to colonize and conquer the territories but they all ended up in massive humanitarian crises. World Wars I and II may have redrawn the world map and christened new world powers, yet they are the biggest black spots on the face of humanity.

The Kashmir Dispute The Past & The Present Homes dynamited, children orphaned, women widowed and half-widowed, eyes blinded, legs amputated, basic facilities destroyed, human rights violated, political rights trampled on, legal rights usurped; this is the valley of Kashmir the present state of which is exposing the reality of the United Nations Charter. It lays bare the liberal values of Western democracies, the jurisdiction of international court of arbitration, the powers of Amnesty International and lofty slogans of numerous global institutions. Kashmir is the world’s bloodiest dispute that has claimed the lives of at least 96,000 people since January 1989. Besides, more than 20,000 women have been rendered widows in this prolonged conflict while 215,000 children have been orphaned owing to worst form of India’s state terrorism. Although the decades-old neglect, discrimination and suppression of Kashmiri identity coupled with the power-centric approach of successive re...
