The massacre of the Gawkadal massacre in Srinagar turned 34 in which over 100 people martyrs and over 300 were injured by the Indian forces in Srinagar on January 20.
Al Jazeera reported over 300 innocent Kashmiris were arrested by the Indian army by raiding the houses in the Srinagar area to cover up the brutality of the usurping Indian army and to terrorize the peaceful Kashmiri Muslims.
“The Indian government did not even register an FIR in a desperate attempt to avoid the massacre of Gawkdal,” Human Rights Watch said.
34 years after the #GawkadalMassacre in #Srinagar, justice remains elusive for over 100 martyrs and 300 injured. #Indianforces faced allegations of #brutality, with no arrests made.

Even after 34 years of the Gaukdal massacre, no one has been arrested yet. In the face of pressure from human rights organizations, the Indian government launched a so-called inquiry, which ended in 2014 without reaching any conclusions.
“Indian soldiers have shot more than 1 lakh innocent Kashmiris in the last 34 years. The Gawkdal incident took place during a protest against the desecration of women,” Al Jazeera said.
The victims of Gawkadal massacre victims have been waiting for justice for the last 34 years and the wounds of sad incident are still fresh today.
