Serial killings
This refers to the serial killings in Kashmir by the so-called security forces. Every now and then, innocent Kashmiris, especially the teens, are falling to police bullets. These killings now clearly indicate that forces have lost all respect for human lives and have waged a war against people. The state government has already declared its helplessness to control these killings and is passing the buck to CRPF and separatists. The protection of life and property is the responsibility of state government. And if they are not able to control the forces operating in the state, they should resign on moral grounds and oppose the presence of troops in Kashmir because these killings would continue till they are here. It is high time for all mainstream politicians to resign and come under a single platform with separatists to fight for demilitarization of Kashmir.
