Islamabad: In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), the Muslim majority faces an existential threat as India\u2019s policies continue to target the territory\u2019s demographic composition.<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, under Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, a dangerous agenda is underway to flood IIOJK with non-Kashmiri Hindus, aiming to alter the territory\u2019s demographics and weaken its Muslim identity. Critics argue that this mirrors Israel\u2019s settler-colonial tactics in Palestine, particularly with the controversial domicile law, which facilitates permanent residency for outsiders. This policy is seen as a direct echo of Israeli settlement expansion.<\/p>\n

The revocation of Article 370, which once granted IIOJK special autonomy, has cleared the path for non-Kashmiris to settle in the occupied territory, further undermining Kashmiris’ right to self-determination. Critics argue that these actions, including the issuance of domiciles to outsiders, threaten to erase IIOJK’s Muslim-majority identity.<\/p>\n

The international community has raised alarm, with concerns that these demographic changes violate international law and United Nations resolutions recognizing Kashmiris\u2019 right to self-determination. India\u2019s actions, critics say, aim to prevent a future plebiscite that would allow Kashmiris to decide their own fate.<\/p>\n

As the situation unfolds, Kashmiris remain resolute in their resistance, determined to preserve their culture, identity, and rights. Observers call for urgent intervention from the United Nations and global powers to stop India\u2019s demographic manipulation before it causes irreversible changes and further destabilizes South Asia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
