Pulitzer awards the best in journalism. But many in India were troubled when three Kashmiris — Dar Yasin, Mukhtar Khan and Channi Anand — won the prize this year.
One has to be incredibly credulous to buy BJP spin masters’ argument that the government got rid of Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar for harmonious relationship with the judiciary.
Modi government had also made numerous efforts to establish peace with Pakistan but has now adopted a different path, militarily, to establish peace, adds defence minister.
As Narendra Modi becomes India’s second-longest consecutively serving Prime Minister, we look at how he compares with Indira Gandhi across four key dimensions.
What if a terrorist kill innocent Indian will that photo be given Pulitzer. It’s only west’s anti India mindset… What will happen guess.. If photo of a American custom officer ruthlessly inquiring a Muslim man . Mr journalist seems you are a…. MOPL(member of Pakistan lobby)
Ms.Grewal,
By taking your article into reference, you are trying to say that Indian Govt did a anti human thing after abrogating article 370.
However, one of the picture which won the Pultizer prize was shot way before that.
It was also featured in an article by Gulf News. https://www.gulftoday.ae/news/2019/05/31/three-killed-in-kashmir-militant-gunbattle
Would you like to say something about that too ?
And btw picture is not lying but someone clearly seems to be misleading.
People like Grewal would be happy if Kashmir is separated from India. That qualifies her to be termed anti-national. And any separation from India will lead to Kashmir’s distruction by the Pakis and Chinese. Hopefully she’s aware how they have sold parts of POK and Baluchistan to the Chinese and how they brutally repress the Kashmiris and Baluchis. So that qualifies her to be called anti-Kashmiri.
Honestly the photograph looks very ordinary and seems to say nothing worthwhile. That apart, the citation is so grossly incorrect, factually. Without doubt, it smacks of a poorly done paid job.
First line of your article clearly showed how misguided you are, The issue was is and will never be about a Kashmiri winning award or anyone being termed anti-national this is all rubbish.
What you clearly did not understand is why does a photo that perpetuates violence, which depicts how misguided the youths are in Kashmir win a prize and not the photos from Kashmir itself depicting an old person expressing his gratitude towards our Army or a woman who is grieving because of the fact that terrorist had victimized her family doesn’t get a chance.
Isn’t bold photography which gets featured in these award functions.
In the picture, it was shown Indian Occupied Kashmir?? Kashmir is an integral part of India there is no occupation there
The issue is not that the photographer’s won. The issue is that they depicted Kashmir as contested in the pic. The caption conveys meaning to the pic. The pic of a person jumping on an army patrol could also be depicted as ‘unlawful acts of citizens trying to stop officials from maintaining peace egged on by false claims and propoganda by Pak’. That would have given an entirely different meaning than one shared by the photographers. The claim that photographers do not judge is total BS. They do and are equal to or more influential than reporters – because a picture says a 1000 words
We all know that most of these international prize are driven by politics, and nothing more than that. We know that Pakistani lobyy is currently on over drive to paint wrong picture of India and most probably they have some how selling their story via left liberal channel. We have seen Jermy Corbon and Bernie Sanders raising Kashmir issue under influemce of their Paksitani supporters. So this prizes are not just as simple as they look.
its not that the RW is not happy that indians have won the pulitzer prize. its the biased narrative the Pulitzer wants to take and some indians (inclu. Rahul Gandhi) facilitate the process. its true that photos dont judge but they do VIRTUE SIGNALLING. and pulitzer, Leli gang want to herd the people into that narrative.
There many RW who empathise with kashimiris families who lost their members , and equally empathise with the soldiers families who lost their members. A loss is a loss… these photographs dont show the other side. its like my pain is more importnat than your pain …
It s unfortunate the Ashoka’s pass outs dont want to see this distinctions….we lost hope with JNU pass outs…
Miss Grewal this entire OPed made me chuckle a bit after realising that you resorted to those typical libturd gimmicks, one need to be a Right or a left winger to call out the Pulitzer committee who called J&K ‘indian occupied Kashmir’ and have disdain due to the same, maybe for you adhering to ideology is above the integrity of India or maybe passively you support the tomfoolery which Pulitzer was trying to subliminally to the World after they are on the same track ideologically as you are and it seems that your vested interests are above the nation, sorry that’s not what my culture and heritage taught me, you guys feel bad when someone calls you an anti national for your treasonous “reporting” which any individual with a clear mind and 2 braincells can make out then kindly tell us a milder substitute to it we will gladly call you by that, they literally had chance to portray the martyrdom of our soldiers and security personnel and what not but what message did they rather subliminally tried to pass on? Don’t act dumb you are wise enough to understand it’s an entire ecosystem which had hijacked the entire concept of morality since post WW-II era which you, the Pulitzer’s and various other institutions and bodies are a part of and sorry to say the BS they portrayed was a mockery of our defence forces and a false allegations which like minded people of yours keep peddling.
The Pulitzer award this year to the 3 Indian photographers, was very political. It wasn’t just about photography. The Pulitzer committee used words like “contested” and “independence”. There is absolutely no need or justification to use that language. If the three Indians had any sense of patriotism, they would refuse the award.
The objection by what you’ll the rightwing, as I understood, is to the citation accompanying the awards.
“…. contested territory of Kashmir as India revoked its independence, executed through a communications blackout” . This is definitely contrary to the resolution adopted in the Parliament of India and the stated position of India
Therefore, any Indian citizen accepting this citation is insulting the resolutions adopted by the Parliament of India.
For Rahul Gandhi to congratulate the event, implicitly endorses the citation and is therefore an insult to the Parliamentary resolution.
He would do well to clarify that he does not endorse the citation.

My only regret is seeing that person, lunging in the air to hit security vehicle and then, may be still alive.
