The vice-president of the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and Senator Sherry Rehman condemned the Indian government’s ban on historical literature and the resistance of cashmere on Saturday, describing it as “worse example of fascism”.
In a statement, Rehman said that this decision was a direct attack on the intellectual freedom of the Kashmiris and reflected what she described as anti -democratic ambitions from India.
She pointed out that the abolition of history does not exchange the facts and that the fact of silencing freedom of expression exposed “fascist tendencies”.
The PPP chief allegedly alleged that New Delhi’s policies were pushing young people from cashmere in “intellectual slavery” and that such bans damaged India’s world reputation.
She added that each attempt to suppress the truth has failed in history and that “India will also fail”, claiming that the confiscation of books was an attempt to erase the identity of the cashmere, which could not be obtained thanks to the prohibitions.

Earlier, Indians illegally occupied Jammu-et-Cachemire (iiojk) illegally brought down on bookstores after the authorities prohibited 25 pounds, including one by the winner of the Booker, Arundhati Roy, affirming that the titles “excite secessionism” in the disputed region of Muslim autumout.
The raids occurred after the government accused the writers of having propagated “false stories” on the cashmere “, while playing an essential role in the deception of young people” against the Indian State.
“The operation has targeted materials promoting secessionist ideologies or glorifying terrorism,” the police said in a social media statement. “Public cooperation is requested to maintain peace and integrity,” he said.
The authorities also seized the Islamic literature of bookstores and houses after a similar directive in February.
