1991 Kunan Poshpora incident

The Press Council's conclusions were criticised by the Human Rights Watch which stated that the results of the examinations still raised questions about the activity of the Indian army in Kunan Poshpora.

According to HRW, the Press Council's investigative committee had dismissed any evidence that may contradict the government version of events.

The HRW report accused the committee of being focused on shielding the Indian government from criticism rather than uncovering truth.

[9] In October 2011, the Jammu & Kashmir Human Rights Commission asked the J&K government to reinvestigate the reported mass rape case and compensate the victims.

The High Court observed that it hoped the committee appointed by the J&K government would examine and quickly implement the recommendations of the SHRC.

The students going for higher education in the nearby Trehgam and Kupwara were taunted due to the incident and most of them choose to drop out after class eight.
