Ya Allah !!Rape of women, disappearance, illegal detain, threatening at gun point, molestation, loot and terrorizing raids by Indian security forces and by unknown gunmen have been a day to day phenomena in Kashmir valley. In 1991 mass rape of 30-60 women & girls when the village of Kunan Poshpura was sealed off by 800 troops of the Rajput Rifles. Eighteen years of turmoil has not only ruined the Jammu Kashmir economically but, has turned the valley in to the land of widows and orphans. It is matter of fact that in state there are more than twenty-five thousand orphans (25,000) and approximately six thousand (6000) widows.
