Hundreds of thousands of Kashmiri Muslims descended on the Valley’s streets, chanting “death to India” and “death to Kafirs”. The apathy of the Nehruvian-Secularists and the so-called “eminences” is on display when it comes to acknowledging the injustice done to the Kashmiri Hindus, since it doesn’t fit the narrative of anti-India groups within India. Some of the slogans used were: “Zalimo, O Kafiro, Kashmir harmara chod do.” “Kashmir mein agar rehna hai, Allah-ho-Akbar kahna hoga.” “La Sharqia la gharbia, Islamia!
