It is imperative that we raise awareness of the atrocities happening in Kashmir!


Concerned locals of Metro Detroit have been actively trying to raise awareness of the Indian occupation of Kashmir and their heinous atrocities in various social and political arenas. This campaign aims to directly address the residents of Metro Detroit to create awareness and instill a sense of concern for the caged up Kashmiris.

SILENCE IS NO LONGER AN OPTION, WE ARE THE VOICE OF KASHMIR


"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere" Martin Luther King


Gut Wrenching Facts

  • No access to food, water, medicine, and other basic daily life necessities for more than 9 million Kashmiris.
  • Curfew since August 5, 2019.
  • Total internet & communications blackout. 
  • Torture and acts of sexual violence

  • Indian forces are firing pellet guns at innocent civilians.

  • Enforced disappearances of civilians, especially boys and young men. Media reports said close to 4,000 people have been picked up in a month.

  • Unconstitutional detention.


Current Situation

Kashmir is under siege and silence is no longer an option! On Monday, August 5 2019, the Indian government abrogated article 370 of the Indian constitution, which gave the state of Jammu and Kashmir special status within the Indian Constitution. The Indian government also abrogated article 35A, which gives the local Kashmiri state the right to define who is a “permanent resident” of the state. This was a condition that the pro-accession local leadership insisted upon to protect Kashmir’s Muslim-majority status, and was the last thing Kashmiris were holding onto to preserve some semblance of their nationhood.


A few days before the abrogation notice, the Indian government put Kashmir under a 24/7 military curfew and ordered all Hindu pilgrims and non-Kashmiris to leave the valley. The following restrictions were also put in place:

  • No access to the outside or with each other
  • No access to cellular phones and landlines
  • No access to television or internet


This is nothing short of a crisis for the entire humanity. The Indian atrocities continue unabated.
