Kashmir is facing turmoils from past few months. For this CM Mehbooba Mufti held a meeting with Home Minister Rajnath Singh. They are expected to discuss the law and order situation in Jammu and Kashmir. She has praised Rajnath for showing his support and said that in such a situation Kashmir needs a complete support of all the parties to fight against terrorism.
In firing by terrorists, seven pilgrims were killed out of 60 in Anantnag district while returning from the Amarnath cave shrine. This incident occurred between Baltal and Mir Bazar. Reportedly, the bus was neither a part of a convoy nor was registered with the shrine board.
Mehbooba said that “Outside forces are involved behind rising violence in Kashmir. The people who are behind the violence in Kashmir wanted to communalise us across the country. Unfortunately, now even China has intervened in the Kashmir matter. I am thankful to our countrymen for showing uniform stand on the Kashmir issue,”
21,000 paramilitary personnel in addition to state police forces and two battalions of Army have been deployed for security of the pilgrimage route.
