Place- Achhabal, Anantnag Kashmir Year- 1988 Summer, school picnic Would you believe if I told you only two of these women are Hindus and the rest are all Muslim, all Kashmiri Muslim women? Can you see any hijab? Any abaya? Any burkha? Does anything appear communal or scary to you? Yet we didn’t know we Kashmiri Hindus would have to make one of the three choices just in the next two years- RALIV, TCALIV, GALIV. And our crime? Being a religious minority, Hindus, a mere 3%. Today, 19-01-2026 marks 36 long years of awaiting justice. Note: This is from my personal album as one of the teachers is my mother. #KashmiriPanditGenocide

How hard is it to simply acknowledge that the Ganga River is sacred to Hindus, and that basic respect should be maintained around it? Instead, they are equating a religious last rite like immersing ashes in the Ganga with eating chicken & throwing it into the river, labeling both as “non-veg,” as if the difference isn’t obvious. Since when has human cremation ever been reduced to a “non-veg” category ? Well this is the mindset of so-called secularists...

Many missionaries openly said the "walls of the mighty fortress of Brahmanism" had to be "stormed" for Christianity to win. They recognized Brahmins as "the principal integrating force" of Indian society, so breaking them was crucial to fragmenting Hindu society. The Logic was simple: Break the prestige of Brahmins so people lose trust in traditional teachers & the Hindu society becomes psychologically open to missionaries and colonial rule. So "Brahminism" was attacked relentlessly in sermons, schools, and colonial policy debates as a way to clear the ground for evangelisation. Thanks @indologia for bringing this to the front.

@AamirsABD Since when is a movie based on politics and operatives in Pakistan anti Muslim 😂? Itna dard? Itna apnapan ki bina dekhe janab ne fenkna shuru kar diya! It seems neither common sense nor basic logic is your strong suit 😒.

Aditya Dhar has made yet another government sponsored project with Ranveer Singh Dear Muslims, this Eid spends your money on family, food & happiness, not on a propaganda film that doesn't respect you Dhurandhar 2 a new chapter of propaganda? Bollywood has run out of creativity, only the agenda remains. No story, no soul just selective history glorification Not watching. Not promoting. Not buying the narrative. My ticket won't go to propaganda. I will boycott #Dhurandhar2

April 1 is still some days away but the joke of the year is already here. Meet Mahashay Bittu ji who has not watched Kashmir Files, Kerala Story, Bengal Files and other media because they as per him are mere propaganda and don’t show facts. It’s an art to distinguish between propaganda and fact without even watching the source. It’s amazing how people like him expose their lack of general knowledge, history, common sense and logic in one go. Gazab ke namune rehte hain is desh mein. #DhurandharMovie

It’s going to take me some days to watch #Dhurandhar2 tell me how do I stay away from spoilers 🤭? I am waiting for the meltdown threads though 💃🏻. It’s immensely satisfying to read them. Share them as much as you can.

@ARanganathan72 @rakeshkhar Sigh…I so relate to your sentiment. Celebrating festivals the way they are meant to be is so different from how we do it now. Those who should apologise are enjoying political mileage and facilities.

Dear Kashmiri Hindus, I want to wish you happy Navreh but every time I think of you, I think of the hollowness of my wishes, I think of how we failed you, I think of how 700,000 of you still cannot return to your homes, and so please accept not my wishes but my apologies. Sorry.

@pkaul9 Tohiy tti mahra chu Navreh Poshte!

@AnObserversView @AnupamPKher @AdityaRajKaul @RohitInExile @BattaKashmiri @MonaADhar Navreh poshte

The oneness of our people from varied parts of the country can easily be seen on days like today. We Kashmiris celebrate it as Navreh, the start of the new year as per the Kashmiri Hindu calendar and the current one marks as Saptarishi era for us. We celebrate this day with religious devotion to Goddess Sharika and our ancestors. This also marks the renewal of time and spiritual beginnings in Kashmir. Navreh coincides with the first day of Chaitra Navratri and links it to the broader Hindu New Year celebrations. And that’s how this festival strengthens our cultural identity and community bonds. What adds even more joy is knowing that this same day is celebrated as Chaitra Sukladi, Gudi Padwa, Ugadi, Cheti Chand and Sajibu Cheiraoba in other parts of our beautifully diverse country. It’s indeed the season of renewal and shared festivities in India. #Navreh poshte to all💟!

@misfit_huhhh @AnupamPKher @AdityaRajKaul @RohitInExile @BattaKashmiri @MonaADhar What matters is the cheerful and blissful celebrations. It’s silly how people focus more on what divides rather than what joins us. Shubh Navratri!

@AnObserversView @AnupamPKher @AdityaRajKaul @RohitInExile @BattaKashmiri @MonaADhar I wish this reaches more people, kind of war going on this platform who celebrate what! Happy Navreh, Shubh Chaitra Navratri 🙏

@Sidddheart Thanks a lot Siddharth! Greetings to you too!

@AnObserversView @AnupamPKher @AdityaRajKaul @RohitInExile @BattaKashmiri @MonaADhar Navreh Poshte 🙏🏻🪷

@BobBlackman That’s very thoughtful of you. Thanks for your wishes on Navreh 😊🌸.

Navreh Mubarak to all Kashmiri Pandits celebrating the Kashmiri New Year today! Wishing the community in Harrow East and across the country a year filled with prosperity, wisdom and joy. #Navreh #NavrehMubarak

@MonaADhar Haahahhahahahaa kus daakh!

Didn’t have latest janthri And AI is the latest manifestation of Saraswati May Ishwar bless us all Nav Varash ki Shubhkamnaye

@sherazzaman @AnupamPKher @AdityaRajKaul @RohitInExile @BattaKashmiri @MonaADhar Shukriya janab. Navratri is a powerful time for inner awakening and strengthening one’s sadhana. May we grow better, be better and do better! Happy Navratri to you too!

In the silence of these sacred nights, the soul learns to listen. Not every prayer is spoken— some are felt in the quiet light of the heart. May these nights awaken your inner light, and guide you toward peace, patience, and truth. Navratri Mubarak

What are the places in Jammu that should be visited? I know it’s the city of temples so that tops the list for me💟. If you have a recommendation for any of the following categories, do share it- 1. Culture 2. Shopping 3. Food

@AmitShah Navreh greetings to you too! I know it’s a complex issue with many layers some of which have been peeled as well…we still wait to celebrate our festivals in our mother land, our maej Kasheer.

Warm greetings to our Kashmiri Pandit sisters and brothers on the auspicious occasion of Navreh. May the new year bring peace, happiness, good health, and prosperity to everyone.

@UmairSandu Hahhahaha hay hay mirchen uff uff mirchen! This account claims to be based in London but poor thing forgot that one can easily check where it is actually based in. Ye to Pakistani nikla. “Fake couple” part is the most hilarious one 😂.

#AdityaDhar & #YamiGautam is the “ Biggest Toxic, Anti Muslim & Hardcore Hindu ” Couple !!! They are spreading Only Hate & Hate through their movies & interviews. Toxicity is in their blood. Banchod Harami Fake Couple !

@SrinagarGirl Tohiy tt mahra chuv Navreh mubarakh 😊🙏!

Happy Navreh! Nov Vari Mubarak, saerni! The Hindu New Year, or the Hindu Nav Varsh, starts on Chaitra Shukla Pratipada marking the beginning of the Vikram Samvat calendar. Time for the new almanac. Also, a very Happy Chaitra Navratri, Gudi Padwa, Ugadi & Cheti Chand, everyone!

@AdityaRajKaul @Gash_Tarukh @AnupamPKher @narendramodi @manojsinha_ @AmitShah @AdityaDharFilms @ImRaina @MeruOnX @MattooShashank @szarabi @ashishsphotos Navreh Poshte to you too, Aditya! Take care of yourself and stay alert. Our good wishes are with you. May there be auspiciousness in and around you!

Navreh Poshte! ✨ This year feels a little different, I’m celebrating our Kashmiri and Hindu New Year away from home here in Israel. Day 24 away, but my heart is still with you all. Wishing you a beautiful and joyful Navreh! May this new year bring warmth, love, and happiness into your lives. May your wishes be fulfilled, your dreams come true, and may joy find you in every moment. 💛 Sending love from afar. Namaskar 🙏

Those are wrong examples you have cited for this particular incident. The FIR is not because of them hosting an iftaar, let’s not be blind, lazy to facts and spread wrong information. The problem is that we have turned everything negotiable- our beliefs, our pious places, our rituals, our practices, and everything else. No matter how troublesome, I quite admire this thing in those following Islam. They have their non-negotiables and they make sure they stay non negotiable.

But why? Ganga Maiyya never differentiated between Pandit Ravi Shankar and Ustad Bismillah Khan and Pandit ji would have happily hosted an Iftaar for Ustaad ji on a boat any given day. This is utterly shameful and uncalled for in every possible way.
