    Kashmir Files to be reopened if there is a need for the same, say J&K DGP Dilbag Singh

    The Kashmir Files, which was released last week, stars Anupam Kher, Mithun Chakraborty, and Pallavi Joshi. Agnihotri wrote the script, and Zee Studios produced it.


    Digital Desk: Dilbag Singh, the DGP of Jammu and Kashmir, said on Tuesday that cases linked to the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from the Valley in 1990 might be revived if there is a compelling necessity. "We will look into the Kashmir files if there's anything specific issue related to that. We have been pursuing and will keep pursuing any case related to terrorism. We will not spare anyone who is responsible for terror crime and strict action will be taken," Singh said.

    Vineet Jindal, an advocate and social activist, had written to President Ram Nath Kovind, requesting that all cases pertaining to the "massacre" of Kashmiri Pandits in 1989-90 be reopened, as well as the formation of a special investigation team (SIT) to reinvestigate incidents of killings in the Kashmir valley.Vineet Jindal, an advocate and social activist, had written to President Ram Nath Kovind, requesting that all cases pertaining to the "massacre" of Kashmiri Pandits in 1989-90 be reopened, as well as the formation of a special investigation team (SIT) to reinvestigate incidents of killings in the Kashmir valley.

    His comments come amid a debate about Vivek Agnihotri's film "The Kashmir Files," which is about the flight of Kashmiri Pandits from the Valley in 1990.

    Former J&K DGP Shesh Paul Vaid spoke on the matter, saying that if all of these cases come to a logical end, nothing greater could be done for terror victims.




    The Kashmir Files, which was released last week, stars Anupam Kher, Mithun Chakraborty, and Pallavi Joshi. Agnihotri wrote the script, and Zee Studios produced it. The film is tax-free in the majority of BJP-ruled states, including Uttar Pradesh.



    Sushil Modi, a BJP MP, gave a zero-hour notice in Rajya Sabha earlier today to demand a government GST exemption for the film 'The Kashmir Files.' Among other states, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Tripura, Goa, and Uttarakhand have declared the film tax-free.

    The film, which focuses on the departure of Kashmiri Pandits from the Valley in the 1990s, has sparked debate since its March 11 release, with the BJP and Opposition parties taking opposing positions.
