Under the shadow of guns, Hindu girl Aarti forced to become Mehwish

Image
UNCERTAIN FUTURE: Hindu girls in Pakistan live in daily fear. Rinkle Kumari   was sobbing before the supreme court of Pakistan that she wants to   go with her parents , but still she was returned to her rapist captors in Pakistan, not to her parents--against her wish. Whether the Hindu girl wanted it or not, she was forced to become Faryal Shah Five years later, after at least 1,500 such cases of abductions at gunpoint and forced conversions of Hindu girls, mostly minors, yet another case: Aarti Kumari Sharma, 20, is now Mehwish. But she has not been produced in court even once since her abduction, forced conversion and marriage within 24 hours nearly five months back, her uncle Kishore Kumar told Hinglaj Mata News. Aarti Sharma, a school teacher, was abducted while she was returning home after school in Khairpur on Saturday, September 9, last year. The very next day, a Sunday, Maulvi Mama Asadullah of the Jamiya Masjid and Al Jamiya Al Islamiya Aizazul U...

The Day My Daughter Aarti Kumari Sharma was Raped in Pakistan*

Image
A Poem by Ahmar Mustikhan Against Abduction, Conversion and Wedding of Aarti Kumari Sharma, 20, by Sindhi Muslim goons in Khairpur Sindh, on September 9, 2017. Despite a court appeal of the victim family, she has not been produced in court yet. Today My Daughter Aarti was Raped My tears flow as if blood gushing out of heart, For today my beautiful daughter was raped. They came with guns in the dead of night, Tied me and Aarti’s mom as we begged them to let her go. They said Allahu Akbar we come here to make her Muslim, Like their mom’s paramour bin Qasim did with Dahir’s daughter. At dawn break, mullah came with boy shit on his shalwar, As the rapist slapped my baby to order: say Laa Illa. I see the blood of rape on Sindh land everywhere, I hear my daughter’s sobs in winter rains. Muslim men of Sindh, so-called Hajis, Are dirty like semen on an old whore’s bed Is it a sin to follow Bhagwan in Cluster Fuckistan, if it is let me say J...

Bye, bye Pakistan; ta ta Pakistan (Baloch version of dil dil Pakistan, b...

Kashmir will remain Hindustan: Muslims duplicity over Pandit plight unacceptable

Image
The slogan in my mind on that day as usual was: Kashmir will forever remain Hindustan (Kashmir rahay ga Hindustan). It was an interesting event at the Georgetown University when I first saw Omar Abdullah for the first time almost three years ago. Had it not been for the fact that he was chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir, just like his father and his grandfather, he could have easily been mistaken for a middle-aged but fit Caucasian guy working on the South Asia desk of the State Department in Foggy Bottom, Washington DC. But what Omar Abdullah said at the Gaston Hall of Georgetown University that day was spookier than the senseless Jesuit Cemetery of Catholic clergymen right in the middle of the campus. “For any solution to work, we first have to recognize that there can be no further transfer of territory between either of the two countries, which means you take the Line of Control and recognize it as an (international) border,” Abdullah said. “If you de-recognize Line of C...

Image
Washington, DC   — Leaders of the Hindu American Foundation (HAF) cautiously welcomed the news that the Trump Administration was backtracking from its proposal to deny extensions of H-1B visas to green card applicants awaiting approval. If implemented this policy change would have triggered the deportation of more than a half million Indian IT workers currently holding H-1B visas. Read full news here
