Insensitive Government
Human rights violations at the hands of so-called security forces is not a new phenomenon in Kashmir. Prime Minister’s promise of zero tolerance for human rights violations didn’t change the situation on ground. That was a cruel joke being played with Kashmiris. Today a sinister design seems to be in place with youth the prime target. Many innocent youth were killed mostly with teargas canisters fired at above the chest with clear purpose to kill them. As if gruesome killings of Inayat, Wamiq, Zahid, Zubair, Tanveer and others was not enough, 11 more youth were killed. Courtesy the “Holy book” AFSPA, which allows them to kill innocents at will with impunity. It is ironical that the government is so insensitive to the happenings around. Hurriyat leadership needs to shun ego and formulate a joint strategy to save the future of Kashmiris.
