Reversal of Genocide Fighting Jihad Panun Kashmir Homeland Day Seminar  28 December 2025

 

The forced displacement of the indigenous Kashmiri Hindu community from its ancestral homeland in 1989-90 was not an accidental outcome of militancy or a breakdown of law and order. It was the culmination of a deliberate, ideologically driven campaign of terror, intimidation, and religious cleansing, executed through jihadist violence and enabled by Pakistan's state-sponsored terror ecosystem. Selective assassinations, open calls for religious annihilation, series of rape and death, destruction of temples, and the creation of conditions incompatible with continued life constituted a classic case of genocidal attrition. The objective was clear: erase the Hindп civilizational presence from Kashmir. More than three decades later, justice remains unserved. The crime remains unnamed. The victims remain displaced. And the perpetrators, ideological and operational, remain largely unaccountable.

From Displacement to Denial

A defining feature of the Kashmiri Hindu tragedy has been institutional denial. The Indian State, media, and much of civil society r educed genocide to "migration," "exodus," or "displacement," thereby transforming a civilizational crime into a humanitarian problem. Relief packages, compensation, and temporary housing, while necessary for survival do not constitute justice. Rehabilitation without recognition, and return without sovereignty and security, merely legitimizes the success of jihad. This denial has had grave consequences: • It normalised Hindu victimhood. It rewarded jihadist terror with irreversible demographic change. It created a dangerous precedent for similar ideological offensives elsewhere.

Panun Kashmir Homeland and the Doctrine of Reversal

The Margdarshan Resolution of 1991 marked a defining moment in the struggle of the Kashmiri Hindus, as it was the first coherent, collective, and uncompromising articulation of their response to genocide and displacement. Adopted in the aftermath of ethnic cleansing, the Resolution rejected narratives of exile and assimilation and instead laid down a clear roadmap (Margdarshan) for justice, dignity, and return rooted in homeland, security, and constitutional guarantees. It transformed a traumatized community into a conscious political and civilization force, asserting that survival without sovereignty and dignity was unacceptable. The Margdarshan Resolution remains the foundational ideological and moral compass of Panun Kashmir's movement for reversal of genocide. Panun Kashmir emerged as the sole organisation to articulate the issue in its correct moral, legal, and civilizational framework. It rejected narratives of passive victimhood and advanced a principled doctrine:

Reversal of Genocide

Reversal is not charity. Reversal is not rehabilitation. Reversal is restoration of rights, homeland, dignity, and security.

Centrality of the Homeland

At the heart of Panun Kashmir's position lies the demand for a separate, secure, and constitutionally guaranteed Homeland for Kashmiri Hindus within Kashmir. This Homeland is: • A corrective to genocide, not a concession • A security imperative, not an emotional aspiration A constitutional and moral responsibility of the Indian State Without a Homeland, "return" remains rhetorical and unsafe. Without territorial concentration and security guarantees, the reversal of genocide is impossible.

Fighting Jihad: The Larger Challenge

The Kashmiri Hindu genocide cannot be viewed in isolation. It is part of a wider jihadist continuum across South Asia. Afghanistan stands completely cleansed of Hindus and Sikhs. Pakistan continues systematic persecution through blasphemy laws, forced conversions, and mob violence. Bangladesh witnesses recurring waves of ethnic and religious cleansing. In parts of India, including border regions, jihadist ideology manifests through demographic warfare, intimidation, and selective violence. Jihad is not merely terrorism. It is an ideological project, religiously sanctioned, politically exploited, and strategically deployed, to alter demography, erase pluralism, and subjugate non-believers. To address genocide without confronting jihad is to treat symptoms while protecting the disease.

State Responsibility and Civilizational Choice

A State that refuses to name genocide cannot reverse it. A civilization that refuses to defend itself cannot survive. The Indian State faces a civilizational choice: 42 • Continue managing consequences through welfare and silence, or Accept moral responsibility by recognizing genocide, fixing culpability, and enforcing reversal. This requires: Official recognition of the Kashmiri Hind genocide Rejection of semantic evasions that shield jihadist ideology Embedding civilizational security into constitutional, legal, and security doctrines • International advocacy exposing selective human-rights narratives

Objectives of the Seminar

his seminar seeks to:

Establish Reversal of Genocide as a legitimate political, legal, and mora framework 2. Reassert the centrality of the Panun Kashmir Homeland as non-negotiable 3. Expose jihad as a civilizational threat not merely a security issue 4. Challenge state and societal denial through evidence-based discourse 5. Create intellectual, policy, and media momentum for justice-oriented action

Conclusion

A Civilization that forgets its victims emboldens its enemies. A state that evades responsibility invites repetition. The question before India is no longer about the past; it is about the future. The struggle of Kashmiri Hindus is not a sectional grievance. It is a test case for India's will to survive as a plural, civilizational entity in the face of jihadist annihilation. Panun Kashmir's call for Homeland and Reversal is, therefore, not merely for Kashmiri Hindus; it is a call to India to choose justice over denial, courage over convenience, and civilization over collapse.
