Welcome to the first episode in the first series of The Kashmir Podcast. Today’s episode will be an overview of not only what happened in the last one year in Kashmir after the autonomy was revoked but also what happened before that. We will speak to Kashmir’s one of the most senior human rights lawyers and a civil rights activist Parvez Imroz.  Imroz is a recipient of multiple international human rights awards  including the Thorolf Rafto Memorial Prize for Human Rights in 2017.

He is also the founder of Jammu and Kashmir Coalition of Civil Society. "JKCCS is a federation of human rights organizations and individuals working in Indian administered Jammu and Kashmir. JKCCS through its constituents seeks to speak truth to power whether through reports, programs, systematic documentation, litigation or other engagements in Jammu and Kashmir and outside."
