Top leaders of the J&K-based political amalgam Gupkar alliance, Dr. Farooq Abdullah and Mehbooba Mufti, on Monday blamed the recent movie The Kashmir Files for “infusing a wave of hatred among youth in Kashmir” and claimed the situation in Kashmir was getting bad.
“I told the Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha that the baseless The Kashmir Files movie has infused hatred across the country and among youth in Kashmir. How would one believe that a Hindu would be killed and his wife asked to eat blood-soaked rice? Are people of Kashmir so lowly? Youth are angry here for how they are being perceived outside,” former Chief Minister and National Conference president Farooq Abdullah said, a day after the alliance leaders met the L-G.
He said beating the drum about the arrival of tourists to Kashmir “does not reflect peace”.
