BBC selected Jagti Township at Jammu, where "residents" are criticizing the film as a 'political stunt gearing up for 2024'. Let this be clear that this location & these 3-4 ppl are not randomly picked. There is a specific agenda behind it.
2/
Vid started with a 'resident' Shadilal Pandita (accompanied by a few), who happens to be society president. Currently, he is leading a protest against govt for relief demand supported by local Congress. He appears to be staunch anti-BJP by his SM posts & public interviews. 3/
Another person who delivered the 'tissue paper' dialogue is Sunil Pandita, a local 'India Against Corruption' activist. He shared similar views about the film on social media & the rest is history. Check the harsh comments he received from FELLOW KPs from the vicinity. 4/
The lady was shot purposefully in front of the society plaque which is inaugurated by then PM Manmohan Singh & Omar Abdullah. We shall not focus today on the corruption & favoritism charges on the flats allocation that eventually led to evict notices to many illegal occupants. 5/
The point here is not individual's political views, which they are free to have. But do they really represent the whole of KPs community as projected by BBC?
As a matter of fact, forget community, they don't even represent the views of their fellow Jagti residents. How?
6/
Evidentially Jagti residents promoted the film by distributing free tickets! If it is not enough, today (20-Mar) Jagti residents had a bike rally in support of the film, read- to protest against those "KP rep" shot in BBC video. (Listen that slogan in the orig post) 7/
With the same confused mind that many of us had about "what's the reality & motive of BBC report", here it is excerpts of interaction with a few of Jagti's residents. Spend two mins to read the raw views. (Identity cant be revealed, so this section is at readers' discretion). 8/
Apart from political reasons, after watching/reading many local news & public posts, one pattern is clear. Few KPs seem compelled to talk about 'brotherhood' in one sentence & 'film may cause trouble for us' in another. If there is love & respect, then what's the threat?
9/
Few KP's public opinions living in J&K may differ from KPs living across the world. They all have gone through a lot but local KP still facing it and they may not like to promote film that supports the abrogation of 370 openly. The threat is real. These headlines are real. 10/
In conclusion, BBC exploited the selection as "KPs real view" with their anti-India agenda. They never dared to share KPs story to the world but jumped to malign honest efforts.
#TheKashmirFiles is not a film, it's an agonized truth that waited for 3 decades to set free.
11/
Amidst the #InformationWar, 'The Hawk Eye' is an attempt to connect the dots against industrialized disinformation campaigns. Support the efforts & be an eye:
YouTube description updated. Still, BBC tried to save face by adding 'BJP' affiliation falsely. These few ppl are facing a community boycott. Society residents are protesting outside their homes. @BBCHindi has enough material to do a story now in the same society.

Hamdard (Rooh Afza maker) claimed that "each glass that you enjoy contributes to the nation building".
This claim is disputed. Let me tell you why!
1/4
To start with Hamdard is a WAQF property since 1948. The owners made some arrangement of keep the company & family running and the part pledged to the God.
The arrangements were made in the name of (a) Khandani Income and (b) Quomi Income
2/
After reserving 1/8 part (ultimately for muwwalis caretakers) of
Khandani Income is for personal (family) needs 1/4th and rest for community). Net net 75% as WAQF charity. In fact Hamdard has taken tax exemption on this Quomi income part.
3/
They made Aurangzeb a 'secular ruler'.
They glorified Khilafat as 'unity'.
But they cleverly erased C. Sankaran Nair - the man who exposed the Truth of Moplah, the burning facts!
#KesariChapter2 #SankaranNair
1/6
A staunch nationalist lawyer, Nair never minced words. He said Congress’ Khilafat obsession led to the mass murder of Hindus in #MoplahMassacre. He documented the violence, the forced conversions.. and the r@pes.
And for that- he was CANCELLED by the Congress 'ecosystem'.
2/
While Congress tiptoed, Nair roared, “This wasn’t a peasant uprising - it was a bloodbath of Hindus!”.
He exposed how Khilafat turned into a cover for communal cleansing.
But speaking up for Hindus = unforgivable sin for Congress. So, they buried him.
3/
Propaganda US journalist Raphael Satter OCI is cancelled for several violations.
Habitual offender Hanna Petersen writes Satter denied he ever conducted journalistic activity in India. Which is outright lie.
Wait, there is more to it, much deeper.
1/
First of all, Satter lied in the court that he is not doing any journalism in India & have visited only for family purposes. Here are two such examples- note that Satter was among first one who broke Pegasus fake story which was never proven till date.
2/
Second, such story was against Indian startup Appin Association where he is still facing defamation suits. In this story, he violated all journalistic standards by publishing someone else picture (knowingly) instead of targeted one because he wasn't able to get right picture.
