Mangaluru: The CPI (M) Politburo member, Brinda Karat on Monday said that the recently hyped-up film, The Kashmir Files does not give a realistic portrayal of Kashmir. 

Speaking to reporters here on Monday, she said that “Along with Kashmiri Pandits, people belonging to several other communities have also struggled during the exodus.”

“Hand in hand with the Kashmiri Pandits were the majority of Muslims, who rebelled against the terrorists, which The Kashmir Files fails to display. Also, the film’s depiction of the hardships underwent by only one religion would not do any good to Kashmir and its people today,” she added. 

Further, she added that, “The consequences of terrorist infiltration in Kashmir have been suffered by the collective lives of people in Kashmir. The portrayal of this history as being affected to only one religion or community is not healthy to the development of our country.”
