Kashmir, the crown jewel of India, has been soaked in the blood of innocents for decades. Islamic terrorist groups, with active support from Pakistan’s Army, ISI, and political establishment, have turned Kashmir into a battleground where Hindus and Sikhs were deliberately hunted down, identified by their religion, and massacred.
These were not random acts of violence — they were systematic, state-sponsored campaigns to ethnically cleanse Kashmir of its native Hindu and Sikh populations.
Here’s a detailed record of the major atrocities:
1. Exodus of Kashmiri Pandits (1990)
Planned Execution:
By the late 1980s, Pakistan’s ISI launched Operation Tupac, a secret strategy to destabilize Kashmir through terrorism. Islamic militant groups like Hizbul Mujahideen were trained, armed, and infiltrated across the Line of Control.
Execution:
Kashmiri Pandits were issued open threats — through mosque loudspeakers, posters, and letters — warning them to leave or face death. Over 300 Hindus were murdered in targeted assassinations. Tens of thousands fled overnight, leaving behind their homes and history.
2. Kishtwar Massacre (1993)
Planned Execution:
Under ISI instructions, terror groups escalated their targeting to regions outside the Kashmir Valley as well. Kishtwar, a Hindu-majority pocket, was seen as a “problem” by Pakistan-backed militants.
Execution:
On August 14, 1993, Islamic militants stopped a bus near Kishtwar, separated Hindus from Muslims after checking names, and shot 16 Hindus dead on the spot.
3. Prankote Massacre (1998)
Planned Execution:
Pakistan’s policy after Kargil was to terrorize remote villages where Hindus still lived, making survival impossible.
Execution:
In Prankote village, terrorists stormed homes at night. They demanded forced conversions to Islam — when villagers refused, 29 Hindus were mercilessly beheaded, and entire homes were burned to erase the evidence.
4. Chittisinghpura Massacre (2000)
Planned Execution:
Timed with US President Bill Clinton’s visit to India, ISI-directed groups wanted to create global headlines suggesting Kashmir was “unstable” due to “internal communal strife” rather than cross-border terrorism.
Execution:
Terrorists, wearing fake Indian Army uniforms, lined up 35 innocent Sikh men at Chittisinghpura and executed them after confirming their religion. The plan was to portray Sikhs as victims of “Indian security forces” — a narrative Pakistan tried hard to push internationally.
5. Nadimarg Massacre (2003)
Planned Execution:
After facing diplomatic isolation post-Kargil and Parliament attack, Pakistan renewed its covert terror operations in Kashmir, this time focusing more on religious minorities.
Execution:
In Nadimarg village, 24 Kashmiri Pandits — including women and children — were shot dead after militants verified their religious identity. Survivors described how attackers checked names before opening fire.
6. Amarnath Yatra Attack (2017)
Planned Execution:
Pakistan-backed Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Hizbul Mujahideen planned attacks on Hindu pilgrims to hurt India’s image globally and discourage religious tourism.
Execution:
A bus carrying Hindu pilgrims returning from the Amarnath cave was ambushed at night. Seven Hindus were killed — a chilling reminder that religious identity still made you a target in Kashmir.
7. Srinagar School Shootings (2021)
Planned Execution:
After the abrogation of Article 370, ISI-supported “hybrid terrorists” (locals radicalized through online propaganda) were activated to instill fear among remaining Hindu and Sikh minorities.
Execution:
At a government school in Srinagar, terrorists asked teachers their names, separated them by religion, and shot dead a Hindu teacher (Deepak Chand) and a Sikh principal (Supinder Kaur). It was a clear, targeted killing based solely on faith.
8. Pahalgam Tourist Massacre (2025)
Planned Execution:
After witnessing a tourism boom in Kashmir post-Article 370, Pakistan’s ISI and Lashkar-e-Taiba plotted a high-casualty event to kill Hindu tourists and reignite communal tensions.
Execution:
Terrorists boarded a tourist bus near Pahalgam, demanded names, checked religious signs like tilaks and threads, and then opened fire, killing 25 Hindu tourists and 1 Nepali Hindu. Survivors confirmed the systematic religious profiling before the massacre.
The Role of Pakistan’s State Machinery
- Pakistan Army: Provided training camps, arms, and safe passage across the LoC for terrorists.
- ISI (Inter-Services Intelligence): Planned the psychological warfare aspect — targeting minorities to create ethnic cleansing, while pushing a fake narrative of “local uprising.”
- Political Forces: Pakistan’s political leadership consistently denied involvement while shielding terror groups like LeT and JeM, using them as “strategic assets” against India.
Conclusion
Pahalgam is not an isolated tragedy — it is the continuation of a blood-soaked reality where thousands of Hindus have been hunted and exterminated by Islamic terrorists in Kashmir. For far too long, Kashmir’s Hindus were slaughtered like silent prey, while India’s spineless political elite played peace games with Pakistan. From the 1980s till today, Islamic terrorists armed, trained, and blessed by Pakistan have massacred thousands of Hindus and Sikhs after verifying their faith. The world looked away. The media buried their screams. No action, no justice. But Pahalgam changed everything. When Hindus from Gujarat, Maharashtra, Bengal, and Delhi fell to the same bullets, the outrage swept across India like a wildfire. This time, India will not forget. Under PM Modi’s iron leadership, a storm is brewing. The final act a devastating military strike will soon be unleashed. Pakistan will pay the price for every drop of Hindu blood spilled in Kashmir. Wait and watch.
