Why customs officials and Kashmiri journalists at odds?


Journalist and activist Yana Mir from kashmir has stated that she was insulted at Delhi's indira gandhi International airport while having her bags scanned. In addition, delhi Customs has reported that Yana Mir felt unduly offended when she was asked to scan the ban at IGI Airport. Bags are routinely scanned for foreign travelers, according to Customs, and everyone is subject to the law.


Yana Mir gained attention lately as a result of her speech delivered in London's british Parliament. She vehemently denounced the misinformation being used by pakistan to damage India's reputation abroad. Mir claimed to be totally independent in Kashmir. She did, however, broadcast a video on her return to india claiming that customs officers had examined her bag at the airport. She described it as superfluous.


What was said by delhi Customs?

In a video, delhi Customs discussed Yana Mir's allegation of bag checking. Customs stated that "international passengers' bags are routinely scanned." Other travelers effortlessly inserted their bags into the scanner. However, Yana Mir felt awful needlessly. The workers at customs were courteous throughout this. The law is not above the privileges. The entire story is told in the videos. In response, Customs has made a video available to demonstrate support. Yana Mir did not comply at all when asked to have her suitcase examined, according to a different post from Customs. His suitcase was eventually picked up for scanning by airline employees and customs officers, as seen in the video.
