British Kashmiris have boycotted the Indian rice in England in reaction to the Indian government’s recent illegal decision in occupied Kashmir and the following surge in human rights abuse. According to Jammu Kashmir TV, 1.2 million British Kashmiris have boycotted the Indian product to send a message to India against the withdrawal of the special status of occupied Kashmir.
The Indian rice has been put on offer at shops at lower rates due to a decrease in demand in England.
The occupied valley remains cut off from the rest of the world since August 5, when the Bhartia Janta Party (BJP) led Indian government scraped special status of the held Kashmir.
