Thousands Missing in Kashmir: Families Seek Justice

Today, on the occasion of the International Day of Families, it is crucial to shed light on the plight of families in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir. Despite the global celebration of the importance of families, a recent report has revealed a disturbing reality - over eight thousand individuals have gone missing after being detained by Indian armed forces since 1990.

This alarming situation in the region emphasizes the pressing need for immediate attention and action to address the ongoing human rights violations. Families of the disappeared individuals are living in a state of anguish and uncertainty, not knowing the fate of their loved ones.

The international community must not ignore these grave injustices. It is imperative to hold those responsible for these disappearances accountable and ensure that justice prevails. Every individual, regardless of their circumstances, deserves to have their rights and dignity protected.

As we commemorate the International Day of Families, let us remember the families in Indian-administered Kashmir who are enduring immense suffering due to the disappearances of their loved ones. It is essential for the global community to stand together in advocating for justice and human rights for all, especially in conflict-affected regions. By raising awareness and demanding accountability, we can strive towards a world where every family is safe, secure, and respected.
