Farooq Abdullah had resigned as chief minister on January 18, 1990, just a day before the genocide was unleashed on hapless Kashmiri Hindus and termed it as ‘as if on cue’. That he had ordered the release of 70 ISI trained dreaded terrorists?”.

Indira Gandhi appointed Jagmohan as Governor of J&K in 1984 and before resigning in Jul 1989, he had warned Rajiv Gandhi about the dark Islamist clouds threatening the valley. He was reappointed on 20 Jan 1990 after Farooq Abdullah had quit on 18 Jan 1990.
Vivek Agnihotri’s The Kashmir Files has triggered a political row with the opposition accusing the film of misrepresenting facts. The film has received accolades from PM Modi, Union home minister Amit Shah and other leading politicians for its portrayal of Indian-administered Kashmir.
