A Panel Discussion on the Current Crisis in Kashmir

‘Kashmir’ is not the name of a conflict.

’Kashmir’ is a mass of some of the world’s most resilient people, fighting against censorship and oppression in the most creative and inspiring of ways.

Last Sunday, we were joined by a panel of experts to help us better understand the ongoing situation in Kashmir. The panel included:

- Omair Bhatt (from Indian Occupied Kashmir)
- Fesl Khan (from the UK, via weblink)
- Syed Muzammil Shah (News anchor, via weblink)
- Nishtha Sood (Law Student and Human Rights Activist from Delhi India, via weblink)
- Sambhav K S (Rights Activist from Delhi India, via weblink)
- Natasha Noreen (From Italy, via weblink)
- Muhammad Salman (Human Right Activist, Pakistan)

Our guest speaker at the event was Ms Bakhtawar Mahmood, General Manager of DBTV Live. Her contribution to the dialogue about the media’s role in aggravating or resolving the crisis, was particularly insightful.

The event was shared live on Facebook and Instagram.
