Do you know there is a tribe in Pakistan that lives in the mountains of Hindu-Kush and practise an ancient form of Hinduism called "Kalash"

The Kalash kafirs (kafiristan) are facing an existential crisis and are being forced to convert to Islam

These people living in 3 remote mountainous valleys in Pakistan, are the last remnants of the ‘Kafirs’ of the Hindu Kush

In 1896 they are more than 100,000

Today they are around 4,000, which indicates a drastic decline in the population of those Kalasha people #ISupportCAA

Hindus in Afghanistan converted to Buddhist during the time of Ashoka & Kanishka

During Arabic invasion, these Buddhists could not save themselves even for 25yrs

Buddhists who changed religion due to fear of sword called these Kalash people Kafir & their territory as Kafiristan
A people who withstood the invasions of Alexander, Genghis, Arabic, Timur & Babur, would vanish into the pages of history

Not just India, but entire international community must make all-out efforts to protect & preserve the Kalash population

Valley of Kafiristan (land of infidels)

Kalash people are best-known for their unique & well-preserved culture, which led to it being listed by UNESCO for consideration as an Intangible Cultural Heritage

This is not enough

But Kalash people are fighting the last battle of their existence by being converted, exploited, deprived & tortured

Apart from Balochistan, Government of India should also pay serious attention to this. This is the heritage of Indian subcontinent
