'To leave the ripe apples rotting on the trees is the only form of protest we can do under the current circumstances.' Orchardists leave lucrative apple farms to rot in protest against India's actions in Kashmir
Either in anger or at the urging of local rebels, farmers have joined in the rebuke of India's actions in the disputed region by deliberately sabotaging a crop known as"spine of Kashmir's economy."
Political leaders and thousands of civilians have been arrested, with allegations of torture and abuse levelled at authorities –– which deny them –– and protests have since raged in India-administered Kashmir. Amid the latest unrest, Malik told AFP news agency that harvesting would allow the Indian government "to tell the world that everything is fine in Kashmir."Anti-India rebels have circulated letters and stuck posters outside mosques, appealing to orchard owners not to harvest and instead join the "resistance."
Rebels have also put pressure on fuel stations, forcing off the roads many trucks needed to transport the fruit. "There is fear , but it's not like the fear of the state forces," said one villager who declined to be named, fearing reprisal.Modi says that with tens of thousands killed in Kashmir's 30-year-old anti-India insurgency, his government has acted to end "a vicious cycle of terrorism, violence, separatism and corruption."
