Srinagar officials claim at least 200-250 Shia mourners, looking to take out Muharram processions, were left injured. Police says they fired pellet guns in response to stone-pelting.
CRPF claims that the muzzle it now uses in J&K diverts 90% pellets in a downward direction, concentrating the hit on the lower part of the body, away from the eyes.
In Episode 1544 of CutTheClutter, Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta looks at some top economists pointing to the pitfalls of ‘currency nationalism’ with data from 1991 to 2004.
Using this technology, IDF carried out fully robotic combat missions, drastically reducing risk to Israeli troops. The robotic combat task force also enhanced situational awareness.
While we talk much about our military, we don’t put our national wallet where our mouth is. Nobody is saying we should double our defence spending, but current declining trend must be reversed.
Why to go against Supreme Court’s decision ? Why to resort to stone pelting?
Good job Kashmir Police, law has to be followed, being a majority in a state doesn’t give any particular community to act as per its wishes. Law is same for all.
What do you mean good job? Teenagers have been injured, at least one reportedly lost vision, public terrified. It’s right that law is to be followed, but it is also true that law wasn’t perfectly followed in rest of the country as well. Was there pellet or tear gas firing in rest of country? Didn’t we condemn even beating with bare hands of rickshaw walas and street hawkers? Then how is it a good job done when in Kashmir? If a section or group of people does not follow certain rules, we have to make them understand and aware about the rules rather than resorting to firing. Take the example of open defecation and how many diseases it can spread, did anyone go about beating or firing upon those who were shitting outside? We had a full fledged campaign to make people aware about it and even provided the, monetary help to build toilets. Our policies are discriminatory towards Kashmiri Muslims and we treat them as a brainwashed uneducated mob. It is high time we recognise this disconnect between Kashmir and rest of the country, because only then can we bridge that gap and make harmony among people, we might even be able to resettle Kashmiri pandits safely back into Kashmir. A nation is made by its people, not just the land.
Ethnic cleansing of HINDUS in Kashmir have made jihadist in Kashmir believe that INDIA is a weak state.
We need to allow people to settle in Kashmir of all faiths to ensure kashmiris are given to know how good life can be without radicalisation
They should be encouraged to be much less religious in daily life and focus on education.
We must encourage kashmiris to be part of INDIA’s multi religious society.
Deeply saddening, heartbreaking. In the times we live in, saying anything more would be inadvisable.
