Exodus did not happen overnight, nor was it a one-day event on January 20, 1990. On the 19th, Jagmohan was appointed Governor. There was nothing he could have done to prevent the exodus from taking place. It was the peak of events, however the genocide started far earlier, in 1989. All of this began in 1987, when Congress rigged elections which irked separatists and they finally took it on Kashmiri Hindus.

Excerpt from his letter to Rajiv Gandhi:

With regard to the conditions prevailing before and after my arrival on the scene, you and your collaborators have been perverting reality.

The truth is that before the imposition of Governor’s rule on January 19, 1990, there was a total mental surrender. Even prior to the day (December 8, 1989) of Dr. Rubaiya Sayeed’s kidnapping, when the eagle of terrorism swooped on the state with full fury, 1600 violent incidents, including 351 bomb blasts had taken place in eleven months.

Then between January 1 and January 19, 1990, there were as many as 319 violent acts - 21 armed attacks, 114 bomb blasts, 112 arsons, and 72 incidents of mob violence.

Eh, Modi cares as little about the displacement of the Kashmiri Pandits as the next politician. But this plays to his base, so here we are.

Jagmohan, widely is considered to be one major factor that saved the lives of Kashmiri Hindus and pandits from the valley. He is also credited for bringing order to one of the most revered shrines of Hindus, Mata Vaishno Devi. He created a board that continues to provide administration for the shrine. Infrastructure was developed and that continues to facilitate pilgrims.

After constant vilification, he resigned in May 1990 and left the Congress to join the Bhartiya Janta Party. His letter to Rajiv Gandhi, his books on Kashmir are considered personal and factual accounts of what happened in the valley.

An excerpt from that letter, "I leave it to the well-wishers of the nation to consider, without any political or personal bias, a basic question. How was it that Dr. Farooq was calling me Hallaqu and Changez Khan, and you were travelling all the way to Srinagar to 'expose' me as anti- Article 370 , anti-Kashmiri and anti-Muslim and, at the same time, Miss Benazir Bhutto was vowing to tear me to pieces -

'Jagmohan ko Bhag-Bhag Mohan Kar Denge'?”

Love how the PM has his priorities straight. Sorta like how China took a bunch of Indian land....and he decided to ban Tik Tok.

@Zeal:

Of course it didn’t happen overnight neither it was a one day thing. But someone had to start acknowledging the issue at some point of time, which no one did. Jagmohan could’ve done something but even he fled from the scene. BJP+RSS etc- the self appointed caretakers of the Hindus who were able to collect forces together from as far as down south in the name of Karaseva and successfully demolished the Babri Masjid , somehow never had KPs and their plight on their agenda. They came into power in 1996 - the most revered and respected Atal ji was the PM. But Alas, even he couldn’t do anything for them.

Coming back to the topic, today they are talking about a movie made on their misery but how is merely talking about it going to help the victims?

Read up the letters:

By the time Jagmohan took over for his second term, it was too late.

“Hardly had I gone to bed when the two telephones at my bedside started ringing, almost continuously. At the other end, there were voices of alarm, of concern, of fright, sometimes muted voices of men too terror-stricken to speak. “Tonight is our last night”, moaned one voice. “By morning, we – all Kashmiri Pandits – would be butchered”, said another voice. “Send us aeroplanes; take us out of the Valley; evacuate us at night if you do not want to see our corpses in the morning”. Pleaded another. “Our womenfolk, our sisters, our mothers, would be abducted, and we menfolk slaughtered”, shrieked yet another voice. Some callers told me that they would just hold on to their telephones so that I could hear the terrible slogans and exhortations that were emanating from hundreds of loudspeakers fitted on the mosques. The noises, they said, were deafening and it appeared that a number of recorded tapes were being simultaneously played at a overloud pitch, causing horrible effects in resonance and permeating the atmosphere with terror and fear of imminent death,”
