Dublin, 27 October 2026: The Kashmir Peace & Solidarity Council Ireland hosted a screening of Saffron Kingdom at Lighthouse Cinema on 27 October, bringing together community members, guest speakers and supporters for an evening of reflection, remembrance and solidarity with the people of Jammu & Kashmir.
Held in remembrance of the events of October 1947, the gathering focused on the human impact of conflict and the experiences of communities affected by displacement, trauma and loss.

Alongside remembrance, the event carried a message of hope for peace, justice and dignity. Organisers emphasised the importance of preserving these stories, listening to affected communities and recognising the value of every human life.
The Kashmir Peace & Solidarity Council Ireland reaffirmed its solidarity with those affected and expressed hope for a future in which every voice is heard and lasting peace and justice become a reality for the people of Jammu & Kashmir.
