Zaira Wasim writes a scathing post on the Kashmir issue on Instagram

Zaira Wasim took to her Instagram account and wrote a scathing post on the on-going Kashmir issue!

Zaira Wasim, who made a breakout debut in Nitesh Tiwari's Dangal in 2016, wrote an emotional post last year about quitting the Hindi film industry and how she was not happy with this identity and struggled to become someone else. It was a brave and audacious post that was lauded by a lot of people from within and outside the industry.

And now, taking to her Instagram account, she has written another long and emotional post that reflects her pain and anguish over the atrocities committed by the Indian Occupation Forces in Occupied Kashmir. Since the actress belongs to the state, her anger and fury are palpable.

She wrote how the state continues to suffer and see, how Kashmiris continue to exist and suffer in a world it is so easy to place restrictions on our liberty. She also raised a few burning questions- Why do we have to live in a world where our lives and wills are controlled, dictated and bent? Why is it so easy to have our voices silenced? Why aren't we allowed to express our opinions? What is so easy to curb our voices severely? Why is that life of a Kashmiri is just about experiencing a lifetime of crisis, blockade and disturbance so abundantly that it has taken away the recognition of normalcy and harmony from the hearts and minds?

This is a post from a bleeding heart that has a lot more brutal truths, read:

Kashmir continues to suffer and see- saw between hope and frustration। There’s a false and uneasy semblance of calmness in place of escalating despair and sorrow। Kashmiris continue to exist and suffer in a world where it is so easy to place restrictions on our liberty. Why do we have to live in a world where our lives and wills are controlled, dictated and bent? Why is it so easy to have our voices silenced? Why is it so easy to curtail our freedom of expression? Why aren’t we ever allowed to voice our opinions, let alone our disprovals, to decisions that are made contrary to our wishes? Why is it that instead of trying to see the cause of our view, our view is just condemned ruthfully? What is so easy to curb our voices so severely? Why can we not live simple lives without always having to wrestle and remind the world of our existence. Why is that life of a Kashmiri is just about experiencing a lifetime of crisis, blockade and disturbance so abundantly that it has taken away the recognition of normalcy and harmony from the hearts and minds? Hundreds of questions like these-unanswered; leaving us bewildered and frustrated, but our frustrations find no outlet. The authority doesn’t make the slightest effort to put a stop to our doubts and speculations but stubbornly tend to go their own way to confine our existence mired in a confused, conflicted and a paralysed world. But I ask the world, what has altered your acceptance of the misery and oppression we’re being subjected to? Do not believe the unfair representation of the facts and details or the rosy hue that the media has cast on the reality of the situation. Ask questions, re-examine the biased assumptions. Ask questions. For our voices have been silenced- and for how long....none of us really know!
