Pakistan took the lives of 30 thousand innocent people.
Let us tell you that this sacrificial pillar is a reminder of the nefarious intentions of Pakistan in 1947. When the whole of India was celebrating its freedom from 200 years of slavery, Pakistan, which came into existence two months ago, was planning to invade our country. The then king of Jammu and Kashmir, Hari Singh, wanted to join India, but at the same time, Pakistani troops along with tribes invaded Kashmir. Raja Hari Singh immediately announced the annexation of Jammu and Kashmir to India but by then it was too late. These thugs even entered Kashmir and looted the identity of hundreds of Kashmiri women and took the lives of around 30 thousand innocent people.
Tribals put people to death by entering Rajouri
When these tribes entered Rajouri, they started killing whoever they saw and robbed women of their dignity. Hundreds of Kashmiris faced these invaders by sacrificing their lives and stopped them from advancing till the Indian army reached there. Now this sacrificial pillar is ready at the same place.
