India Asks Diplomats to Withdraw Their Children from Islamabad Schools
According to their Facebook page, “This campaign is created to highlight the atrocities and abuses carried out by the Indian Armed forces and Police who enjoy complete immunity under the Armed Forced Special Powers Act which has made a mockery of India’s claim to be a secular democracy”.

Indian Home Minister Rajnath Singh visited Kashmir over the weekend, following street battles between government forces and protesters in the Muslim-majority region.
“Pakistan urges the United Nations, global community and the human rights organisations to play their role in stopping the Indian atrocities in the Indian-Occupied Kashmir against innocent and defenceless Kashmiris”.
Facebook users posting on the violence in Kashmir in Britain, the US, India and Pakistan told AFP their posts had been removed or their profiles permanently deleted by the Silicon Valley giant citing “violation of community standards”. A Pakistani diplomat feared the Pakistani students whose parents work in Pakistani High Commission in New Delhi might face the similar situation in India.
India asked Pakistan last week to ensure the safety of its officials and their families stationed in Islamabad in view of threats from marches and protests outside the high commission. The officials from Ministry of External Affairs had cited security reasons behind the order, but the decision comes as tension between India and Pakistan has been growing after the unrest of Kashmir. Pakistan denies the charge, saying it provides political and diplomatic support to Kashmiris.
Most notably, it removed Hamza Ali Abbasi’s post supporting Kashmiri leader, Burhan Wani, and blocked his account for a few days.
Hundreds of angry residents rallied in the city Tuesday to protest against Indian rule, shouting slogans for freedom and clashing with police who fired tear gas canisters to disperse them, a witness said.
The present uprising in Kashmir and the heavy handed treatment of Kashmiris by Indian security agencies prompted Pakistan to extend its diplomatic support to the Kashmiris and urge the worldwide community to pay attention to it.
Kashmiris from all walks of life especially the youth came to social media to express their disgust over the atrocities carried out by the Indian forces in Indian Occupied Kashmir (IOK).
Burhan Wani led the Hizbul Mujahideen rebel group, which is one of a number of organizations struggling against around 500,000 Indian troops that have been present in the area since 1989.
