19th January is the day that we as Kashmiri Hindus will never forget. 19th January re-opens our wounds, and doesn’t let them heal.

A genocide against Hindus untold: It has been 32 years since we were forced to flee the valley.
After hearing commotion outside, I remember my uncle closing our blinds and saying “aaz muud es” (Today we will die).

We heard “Agar Kashmir mein rehna hein, toh Allah hu Akbar kehna hein” (If you want to live in Kashmir, then you have to say Allah is Great).
“Hum kya chahte hein? Azaadi!” (What do we want? Freedom!)

Slogans blared from the loudspeakers of Mosques. Then started barbaric acts: killings of men in public, gang-rapes of women, dismemberment of bodies, and temple/idol breaking.

A Thread: The #ExodusDay of #KashmiriHindus from Kashmir in 1990 on this day "19 January" is not something which can be forgotten. Lakhs of people left their land, their homes, their belongings and moved to survive from Pakistani sponsored Islamic fundamentalist attacks 1/n
The mass murder & terrorizing of non-Muslims in Kashmir was never ending. Sikhs or Hindus, all got brutally slaughtered under the name of Jihad against infidels (Non-Muslims). People lost their Homeland, culture, their institutions, and places of worship #KashmiriHinduExodus 2/n
It was not the first exodus of Kashmiri Hindus. It was the 7th exodus of Hindus from Kashmir. Before 1990, in 1986 also, lot of cultural, psychological and physical damage was done to Kashmiri Hindus. Here is a record from 1986. #KashmiriHinduExodus 3/n
