Kashmiri Pandits' Agony - Their Temporary
Homeland Most of the Pandit
refugees, mislabeled as
"migrants", live in squalid camps with spiralling health and
economic problems. That the Muslim-led state government of Jammu and
Kashmir has ignored their plight comes as no surprise since the
oppression of Kashmiri Pandits did not start in 1989, but much
earlier. Between 1947 and 1989, hundreds of thousands of Kashmiri
Pandits had left the valley to escape oppression by the Muslim
majority.
