ABOUT US
The Legal Forum for Kashmir (LFK) is an international, non-violent, and legal organization. Its members are indigenous people of the occupied territory in Jammu and Kashmir. The aim of the organization is to defend the political, social and human rights of Kashmiris and to promote the UN sanctioned Right of Self-Determination.
In today’s world, the notion of conflict resolution necessitates that those who continue to be denied their rights or remain excluded be given an opportunity to present their case. Unfortunately, it remains the case that Kashmiris themselves continue to be marginalized, even invibilise, in most discussions or narratives on the conflict. LFK has, therefore, been established to fill the gap, providing an international forum through which its members can become effective participants and contributors in the international community.
LFK works to address the consequences of marginalization, working with its members.
HR VIOLATIONS

Rape as weapon of war
Hundreds of women have been raped with impunity & most of them go unreported given the social stigma and fear of retribution by the State
Human Rights Violations in
Indian Occupied Jammu Kashmir
January 1, 2008 to June 30, 2022
India occupied Kashmir aggressively keeping all the rules and regulations above the fold but it could not get the spirit of independence out of the hearts of Kashmiris. So far more than one lac Kashmiri citizens have been martyred in the valley, thousands of women have been raped and all forms of violence have been tried but the spirit of Kashmis’ freedom has not been diminished.
