more micro management is needed. why can’t there be task force or combing operations to hunt down who organize pelting, allow mosque loudpeakers to be misused, keep sacks of stones? sacks of stones should have a law.

This will be an insurgence under the control and idealogical doctrine, which is independent and indigenous. This intelligencia led nationalism will be the flag bearer of a new Kashmiri nationalism.

While it is absolutely true without the people of J&k,keeping a piece of land with India has no meaning but what baffles the most is only children of poor innocent families are being pushed for stone throwing on forces, while children of leaders spearheading the sepertive movement are sitting in the safe cocina of their houses& setting have nots to die. Very update movement
We will hunt down the last terrorist – I prefer the term militant, although even that may be too harsh – is what a senior personage had said a few months back on Off the Cuff. That approach is leading us into a cul de sac. May the sunmer of 2019 lead to a completely different way of looking at Kashmir and its people. Twenty month old baby girls – my Ananya’s age – should not be getting hit with pellets in the eye.
