There are a few journalists who are on the pay rolls of the ISI. Their job is to specifically create a propaganda to show that the entire state is with Pakistan. They are the ones who have been dishing out the pro-azadi sentiments in the Valley.

The IB and the CID's Special Branch which prepared the list has sent the same to the Union Home Ministry. The ministry on the other hand has told the forces to go all out against them. Not just the militants on the ground, but the ideology needs to be crushed too.

In a recent editorial in the Dawn, it was stated that Pakistan has failed to cope with the Modi era. It also stated that Modi has decided that Kashmir must be crushed and Pakistan has not been able to cope with the same.
