#BookOverview Kasheer : A Diabolical Betrayal of Kashmiri Hindus by @SahanaVijay

This is Kashmir’s story. Originally written in Kannada, it is translated into English by @shanthigrama, who is a London-based technology professional

Link: amzn.to/3iJkcFn

@SahanaVijay @shanthigrama @IndicaBooks It catches the facts of deception, betrayal, propaganda and political ambitions that have all but erased the memories of oppression of Kashmiri Hindus from the nation’s conscience

It extricates the truth of human tragedy and presents it with brutal honesty
