#TheKashmirFiles’ movie banned in Singapore

The film can cause enmity between different communities, authorities in the country said.

#TheKashmirFiles, directed by Vivek Agnihotri, is based on the exodus of Kashmiri Hindus from the erstwhile state in the late 1980s and early 1990s due to militancy. It was released on March 11.

“The #TheKashmirFiles film will be refused classification for its provocative and one-sided portrayal of Muslims and the depictions of Hindus being persecuted in the ongoing conflict in Kashmir,” the #Singapore authorities said in a statement.

The day they announced that #KashmiriPandits should leave their women behind & go from #kashmir, my family decided to flee their homeland, hidden in the back of a truck, with my sister hidden under the seat behind my father's feet for safety, quietly in the middle of the night!
As I watched the same disturbing scene in #TheKashmirFiles it shook my core as this is literally my own story! My grandmother died, waiting to return to her home, her land, her “Panun kashir “ ( my Kashmir)
This film has been like a punch in the gut for me. It's been much worse for my parents. My family is experiencing PTSD from having to relive it . This is the most imp story that took too long to be told & remember, this is yet,only a film, there is still no #justice for us.

If plagiarism had a celebrity it will be of @vivekagnihotri for in his recent video () on #WilliamDalrymple he has lifted sentences verbatim from @dharmadispatch 's article (dharmadispatch.in/culture/a-fest…) w/o batting an eyelid. Let me dissect the plagiarism. 1/n
2/n in the opening remark, purportedly made to appear as his, #vivekagnihotri says at 1.25 in the video regarding the quote from Churchill. Well these were the opening lines from Sandeep's article:
3/n further on #vivekagnihotri says about Suleman Rushdie at around 3.10 in the video, its a direct lift aka theft from Sandeep's article. Look here
