Amjad Ayub Mirza, a prominent activist from Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK), has issued a strong warning about the rising influence of jihadi groups and the growing jihadi culture in the region. He cautioned that these groups, with the backing of certain political figures, may target progressive, liberal, and secular individuals within PoJK, particularly those who hold pro-Indian views. Mirza expressed his concern in a video message, stating, "There is a danger that by stoking jihadi culture and jihadi organisations in PoJK, they will target progressives, liberals, and especially nationalist secular elements inside PoJK--those who are considered pro-Indian and who accept the 1947 Instrument of Accession signed by Maharaja Hari Singh and the Mountbatten Governor-General of India. I hope it doesn't happen, but serious concerns remain regarding a spate of extrajudicial killings in PoJK."
