'KASHMIR FILES' - Everyone must See!

 

I saw the film just now.  My salutes to Abhishek Agnihotri for his boldness in producing this film.  The story revolves round Pushkar nath (Anupam Kher), cunning Hindu professor (played by Pallavi Josi of TV fame), who tacitly supports the cause of Azad kashmir and another youngster Krishna Pandith.  Krishna's Parents and siblings are massacred by terrorists whereas he grows up believing that they were killed in a scooter accident. Glorious past of Kashmir during days of Hindu king Lalitaditya and the padayatra of Shankaracharya could have been shown.  However they are well referred in the film. Genocide of Hindus, threat for them to get converted, leave or get killed, their selective threat on Hindu men to leave Kashmir, leaving behind their ladies of fertile age group are all very boldly shown. Everyone must see this film.

However I have observed following flaws.

Your points stir people’s mind more vigoursly than the film. Following crucial points are missing in the film. 

The film does the mistake of referring to Kashmiri Hindus as 'Pandits.' Are Pandits not Hindus?  Calling them as Pandits is the political ploy of vested interests in enforcing divide and rule policy.  Unfortunately film makers have also fallen a prey to this ploy.

1.Annexation of Kashmir to India, how Patel was subsided, Nehru’s tacit support in formation of PoK. 

2.Sheikh Abdullah was made PRIME MINISTER (not CM) of J n K. HOW?

3.How Nehru granted article 370 five years after partition even though there was no strong demand. 

4.Huge money spent by erstwhile central govt.s on that State and families of politicians looting it. 

5.How hands and legs of army was tied during earlier regime. 

6.Forces behind stone pelters and the plight of security forces under them. 

7.How migrated Kashmiri Hindus were exploited by various forces including fellow Hindus in Jammu and elsewhere. 

8.How our MADia kept silent and never reported the genocide of Jan 1990. 

9. What role BJP played by continuing to support to VP Singh govt. even after knowing events of Jan 1990. 

10.Efforts of present Government in abolishing article 370 and his efforts in bringing back Kashmiri Hindus to Kashmir. 

Still I appreciate the boldness of film makers in trying to expose the issues involved.  Everyone must see this please film and introspect.
