Indian-American comedian Hasan Minhaj does not shy away from social commentary. While he’s mostly focused on American issues, every now or then he often focuses on burning international issues as well. At present he’s one of the few international celebs bringing attention to the erosion of independence and autonomy in Jammu and Kashmir. On his show Patriot Act, Hasan Minhaj called out India for taking away the little autonomy that Jammu and Kashmir had while India was celebrating 72 years of Independence from UK.

“With independence and autonomy, I can’t help but think about the people of Kashmir, and everything that’s been going on right now with Article 370.”

While globally famous Pakistanis like Jameela Jamil are shying away from commenting on Kashmir for fear of losing on their Indian following, Hasan Minhaj has put it straight. Even Pakistani girls education rights activist Malala Yousafzai’s stance on Kashmir was meek at best.
