Humra Qureshi, a well-known author and journalist, died on January 16, 2025. She was very dedicated to writing about the lives of people in Kashmir. Her work was all about giving a voice to those who weren’t heard and showing the tough situations people faced there. She was important in the world of independent journalism and fought for people who were often forgotten especially those hurt by conflict.
Qureshi’s most important work is “The Untold Story of Kashmir” which is still a great source for learning about the complex issues and the real-life stories within Kashmir. Through her writings, she tried to show all the details of life in an area that has a lot of political and social problems. She wrote in a way that was both strong and caring showing both the pain and the strength of the people she met. This made it possible for those usually ignored to be heard and for their strength and problems to be understood.
Humra Qureshi leaves behind a big and lasting impact her work will keep helping people understand the Kashmiri people and what they go through. Her commitment to truth through journalism and writing is a testament to her work towards social justice and human rights. While she will be missed, what she did will always inspire people who want to use their voices to reveal unfairness and make sure marginalized people are heard.
