Already 10 months of confinement in Jammu and Kashmir

Paris (France) | 13 June 2020
In the 1920s, the British shaped Islam and Hinduism in their image. They created the Muslim Brotherhood around Hassan el-Banna in Egypt and the SSR around V. D. Savarkar in India. These two political doctrines instrumentalized religions and preached intolerance. When they decolonized the Indian subcontinent, the British made sure that they remained indispensable by dividing it in an unmanageable way. Today, Kashmir is artificially divided between Pakistan and India, both of which claim it in its entirety. Continuing Savarkar’s work, Prime Minister Narendra Modi decided to apply the concept of Hinduism (Hindutva) and to transform the lives of Muslims into a hell. Ambassador Moin ul-Haque explained this tactic.
