India’s Secret Kashmir Campaign Exposed: Leaked UNHRC Documents Reveal Covert Operations
Hackers have exposed India’s secret plan to control the Kashmir story at the United Nations Human Rights Council. The leaked documents show how India tried to shape global opinion about Kashmir.
What the Leaked Documents Show
The leaked document reveals a shocking admission of a sophisticated campaign to shape the global narrative on Kashmir. Dated September 2, 2023, the document outlines instructions from India’s Permanent Mission in Geneva to coordinate with UNHRC nodes ahead of the September 2023 session.
The classified cable shows India’s detailed strategy to counter Pakistan’s position on Kashmir. The document came from India’s diplomatic mission in Geneva and contains top-secret instructions.
Key Points from the Leak
- Network Mobilization: India planned to activate networks across Pakistan-controlled Kashmir to collect grievances and petitions
- Street Actions: The mission organized rallies and protests during UNHRC sessions in Geneva
- NGO Partnerships: India worked with friendly organizations to support their Kashmir position
- Media Strategy: The plan included press conferences and side events to influence international media
- Coalition Building: India quietly supported groups from Sindh, Balochistan, and Pashtun areas
Who Leaked the Documents
The hacktivist group “Anon Eagle” claimed responsibility for the leak. This group emerged in 2025 and has targeted Indian government websites before. They previously attacked India’s Election Commission in 2023.
The Senate IT Committee learned on Thursday, September 18, 2025, that PTCL and Telenor Pakistan’s merger will be completed in two weeks. The cyber attack happened during rising tensions between India and Pakistan after the April 2025 Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people.
Impact on India-Pakistan Relations
This leak shows how both countries use cyber warfare alongside traditional diplomacy. The documents reveal India’s sophisticated digital diplomacy methods to influence international opinion.
Cybersecurity experts say this leak could have real diplomatic consequences for India. The exposure of such sensitive materials damages India’s reputation at international forums.
What Experts Say
David Sehyeon Baek, a cybersecurity expert, told TechJuice that this leak could carry serious diplomatic consequences. He noted that India has not officially responded to the leak, which suggests internal damage control efforts.
The leak highlights how cyber operations have become a “dual front” alongside military actions in the India-Pakistan conflict.
The Human Cost
The leaked documents show how both countries fight for control of Kashmir’s narrative. However, the real victims are Kashmiri people who face daily hardships while politicians play games with their future.
This cyber war over Kashmir’s story continues with words and digital weapons instead of traditional warfare. The question remains whether genuine Kashmiri voices get lost in this information battle.
