Radio Mirchi anchor and Jockey, RJ Sayema shared a hertwarming video on her Twitter account talking about the plight of Kashmiri pandits. As a part of her dissertation on Kashmiri Pandits, for her Master of Philosophy (MPhil) degree at the University of Delhi, Sayema interviewed numerous Kashmiri Pandit families.
I wrote my dissertation on “Internally Displaced People: A Study of Kashmiri Pandits in Delhi”. They narrated their pain and agony to me. I asked them ‘Do you hate me as I am a Muslim?’. This is what they told me. #KashmiriPandits pic.twitter.com/s4zOk8nRIc

In her video, she shared the hesitation that she felt, being a Muslim and talking about these issues with the refuges who had been terrorised in the name of religion.
She went on to say that when she finally asked a family if they were uncomfortable about her religion, they brushed it aside.
Twitter is in awe of her words and is applauding her for spreading a positive message.
Didnt finish viewing this Sayema. Was in tears midway. Fully relate to what you narrated personally.

I am a Sikh.
My Father’s family was shunted from their Lahore roots during partition. (He also knew Urdu btw). My Mother’s family has seen riots, brutal murders close front staying in Amritsar.
Neither of them EVER indoctrinated us against any community

That’s what good people are made up of.
I wish to meet you someday.
Beautiful i heard ur say on Kashmiri pandit and you are very correct, i have my office in srinagar since 2011, i did my analysis by taking with Sikh and muslims. Yes it is true terrorist made Pandits leave, but who were these terrorist, kashmiri muslims no. But they got bad name

Such a beautiful soul you're @MirchiSayema . My father's family has seen so many riots in bengal. My grandmother had to leave her land overnight during partition but never did they blame any community for the same and instead taught us to live in peace & harmony.
