The Kashmir Files: These days, the film is in many discussions. People are constantly giving feedback about this. Not only this but now the school’s name has also been changed. A municipal school in North Delhi has been renamed after Tika Lal Taploo, a Kashmiri Pandit leader who has shot dead 33 years ago in Srinagar.
The North Delhi Municipal Corporation (NDMC) organised a program on Sunday. Union Minister Jitendra Singh was present as the chief guest in the program. NDMC Education Committee Chairman Dr Alok Sharma said that the name of ‘NDMC Primary School 7-B’ located in Sector-7 of Rohini had been changed to ‘Shaheed Tika Lal Taploo’. He was an unsung hero. This is our tribute to the late leader.

Dr Alok Sharma said that he had proposed to rename the school after Tika Lal Taploo, a Kashmiri Pandit leader, which the mayor approved in advance.
Who was Tika Lal Taploo
Let us tell you that Taploo was shot dead in 1989 in Srinagar. This incident has also been mentioned in the film ‘The Kashmir Files’. He said that the inspiration to name the school after him came from this film.
Union Minister Jitendra Singh said that the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits was followed by heavy violence. This was followed by voting in 1996. The National Conference and Congress manipulated it. On this occasion, the Mayor of North Delhi Raja Iqbal Singh, BJP MLA Vijender Gupta were present. MLA Vijender Gupta said that Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has refused to declare ‘The Kashmir Files’ as a tax-free film and has also shown insensitivity towards Kashmiri Hindus.
