Jammu and Kashmir: Baramulla event marks October 22 Black Day

By IBNS
Oct 23, 2023..

The South Asia Center for Peace and Peoples Empowerment (SACPPE) recently hosted a one-day event titled ‘Tribal Invasion: A Black Day in J-K’s History’ in Baramulla region of Jammu and Kashmir to mark October 22 as ‘Black Day’.


The program was organised on the anniversary of the Pakistani Tribal invasion of Jammu-Kashmir that happened on October 22, 1947, reported ANI.

Speaking at the event, Tauseef Raina, former chairman of Municipal Committee Baramulla, spoke in detail about the reality of the event how marauding tribesmen not only killed non-Muslims but hundreds of Kashmiri Muslims as well and the aim of the tribal raid was to seize the land, the Indian news agency reported.

“The St Joseph’s Hospital in Baramulla was burnt crisp to the ground; its sick, elderly, and nurses were raped and killed. Pakistan only wants Kashmir to bleed and burn. Young women were abducted and carried off without distinction of colour, cast or creed. Each raider tried to grab as much wealth or as many girls as he could,” he said.

Raina said after seeing violence, death and destruction for decades, Kashmiris, especially the youth here have given up the gun culture and dissociated themselves from Pakistan.
