Tenjpura It has been 35 years since the worst massacre by the Indian army in Occupied Kashmir.
According to the report, 35 years have passed since the Indian brutality in the Tenjpura incident, while even after 3 decades, the victims of the Zakura Tenjpura incident are waiting for justice.
On March 1, 1990, the Indian army opened fire on more than 2,000 Kashmiri protesters who had gone to protest outside the United Nations office in Srinagar. 26 protesters were martyred at 21 Jabka Zakura Chowk by firing on 2 buses of protesters on the Tenjpura bypass.
A large number of women, elderly people and children were among the martyrs. After the massacre, those who were taking the injured to the hospital were also fired upon.
The protesters wanted to register their protest outside the UN office in Srinagar against India’s violation of UN resolutions. After the incident, Amnesty International also appealed to the international community to intervene immediately in Kashmir.
The Indian Military Commission of Inquiry justified the firing and the resulting deaths.
On March 31, 1990, the Economic & Political Weekly (Journalism Commission) called the report of the Indian Military Commission of Inquiry a lie.
As a result of the firing, 47 Kashmiris were martyred while hundreds were injured. According to the report, the Indian army was directly responsible for the massacre of Kashmiris.
Will international rights organizations ignore the worst human massacre without an investigation? Will the victims of the incident get justice even after 35 years?
