19 years ago, on 20 Jan 2002, 4 Lashkar-e-Taiba #terrorists massacred 11 civilians, including eight children & a woman, & injured three others at a small village of Behra in Poonch, Jammu & #Kashmir.
The only fault of those innocent souls was that they refuse to be a part of the cycle of violence, they refused to shelter the four gun wielding LeT #terrorists. #Kashmir
The cold hearted killers did not even hesitate to kill eight innocent children, what kind of Jihad justifies the killing of innocent kids. #Kashmir#Terrorism
On 2 Feb 2002 in a joint operation, #IndianArmy & police killed these four LeT #terrorists near Sanai in Surankote, 04 AK rifles, 5 kg of explosives, 20 grenades, and 03 detonators were recovered from them.
The #terrorists were identified as Talab Mansur, area commander of LeT and resident of Gujranwala, Rashid Aziz, Abu Isha, both residents of Sialkote & Abu Salama of Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (POK). All #Pakistan sponsored terrorists. #Kashmir
In last three decades more than 40 thousand people have lost their lives to #terrorism in #Kashmir, thousands of families have been destroyed at the hands of the #terrorist fanatics sponsored by #Pakistan.
#Pakistan wants to see #Kashmir burning so as to keep the Kashmir issue alive in international community. It has no regrets in destroying the lives of innocent Kashmiris as long as it serves their purpose of keeping Kashmir issue highlighted.

19 Jan 1990 - "Exodus day". More than 3 lakh Kashmiri Pandits who resided in #Kashmir from time immemorial became refugees overnight in their own country. A #thread#KashmiriPandits @AnupamPKher
The anti #Pandits pogroms & attacks started in 1989 with insurgency. On loud speakers open threats were being issued to #KashmiriPandits, the message was clear - "either leave the valley or die a painful death". #KashmiriPanditGenocide
Posters were pasted outside their houses declaring them as targets for the Jihadist.
Instances of assassinations, tortures & murder were becoming common. #PanditExodus#KashmiriPanditGenocide
Pakistan is a festered wound in the lives of #Kashmiris that has been eating away the soul of Kashmir for decades now.
Some sane leaders in #Kashmir who saw through the devilish design of #Pakistan & tried to save its people from this snake in the grass were either sidelined or worse killed in cold blood.
This includes the two most influential leaders of Kashmir #MirwaizFarooq & #AbdulGhaniLone.
What happened with them?
At 7:15 p.m. on 13 Feb 1990, #terrorists shot Lassa Kaul, 45, director of the government-run #television station as he stepped from a vehicle in front of his home.
It shook Mirwaiz Farooq, Lassa Kaul was his dear friend. #Kashmir
#IndianArmy is not only known for its valor, gallantry & professionalism but also for its unflinching sacrifice, dedication & love for its countrymen whether in #Kashmir or rest of #India.
On 14 Jan last year during heavy snowfall, an expecting mother Mrs Shamima from Dardpura, required emergency hospitalisation. For 4 hours over 100 Army Jawans of 52 RR & 30 civilians walked with her on stretcher through heavy snow.
The mother was able to reach hospital on time, thanks to the valiant efforts of #IndianArmy & the locals.
Baby was born in hospital, both mother & child were healthy. The family of Shamima & the locals couldn’t thank #IndianArmy enough.
#Propagandists have for long been known to incite hatred with conspiracy.
Flooding social media with #FakeNews against India now appears to be the new means for these elements to inflame their agenda. #thread #Kashmir
#Pakistan made desperate attempts to spread the propaganda on #Lawaypora encounter. Several #Pakistani#ISPR handles launched campaign within few moments after the conduct of encounter.
#Lawaypora was a joint #operation launched by parties of #JKP, #Army & CRPF based on specific #intelligence about the presence of #terrorists in the Lawaypora area.
Based on intelligence input, cordon was laid & all the standard operating procedures were followed. #Kashmir
The #operation was conducted right besides the NH44 under full #media glare of both #national & regional media. The operation lasted for 18 hours in the thickly populated area with heavy traffic & numerous houses in the vicinity that had direct view of the entire #encounter site.
#Pakistan, where #terrorists are called martyrs & grieving families who lost their loved ones are called blackmailers.
Callous comments by #ImranKhan calling grieving families of #HazraGenocide as "Blackmailers" has sparked protests in different parts of Pakistan.#GilgitBaltistan
#Pakistan's atrocities in #Balochistan has reached an all time high.
On Sunday, armed attackers had slit the throats of 11 miners in #Balochistan's Mach coalfield area, filming the entire incident & later posting it online. #pakistanblackout
