Chinese hate Indians, Pakistanis hate Indians, Bengalis hate Indians, Sri Lankans hate Indians, and now even Indians hate Indians. Looks like some people didn't get the memo.

Police officers among 35 injured in Kashmir clashes

SRINAGAR, Nov 7: Almost three dozen persons including some of the senior police officers were injured as violence clashes broke out between groups of youth and police in South Kashmir’s Anantnag district and some areas falling in the Old City of Srinagar immediately after the culmination of Eid prayers.

The clashes between the protesters and police as well as security forces led to panic in entire Anantnag town disrupting Eid festivities for some time since Eid-ul-Azha was celebrated today.

Police acted swiftly and arrested more than a dozen youth in Anantnag and parts of Old City in Srinagar, who were involved in stone pelting on police and para-military personnel and were raising provocative slogans.

IGP Kashmir SM Sahai told the Excelsior that the youth indulging in stone pelting and other "undesirable activities’’ like shouting provocative slogans were arrested by police and lodged in police stations, where cases have been registered against them under various provisions of law.

Mr Sahai said barring protests at two or three places, Eid celebrations across entire Kashmir valley passed off peacefully. He added that protests after Eid celebrations this year were far more less than the last year.

The IGP Kashmir said there was no provocation for the youth and they started pelting stones and indulged in sloganeering at two-three places necessitating action against them.

Reports said that as soon as Eid prayers culminated a group of youth came out on main road in the Janglat Mandi area of Anantnag town. These people wanted to take out a procession from Janglat Mandi chowk to the main Anantnag chowk, but the same was foiled by the posse of police and security forces present there.

The denial of permission to take out a procession did not go well with the youth and they got infuriated. They raised slogans against the police and Government alleging high handedness from the police and security forces.

The police personnel including some of the senior officers along with some of the senior CRPF officials tried their best to pacify the agitating youth. They asked the agitators not to push for the procession and asked them to go back their home. However, the agitating youth did not listen to the plea and still wanted to take out a procession.

These agitating youth divided into smaller groups and started pelting stones on the police and security forces. The Janglat Mandi chowk presented the scene of a virtual battlefield and both the sides got engaged in ding dong battle that continued for many hours. Clashes between the two sides led to disruption in the Eid festivities in the air and some of the people were forced to stay indoors due to the clashes.

Police and security forces resorted to cane-charge and lobbed smoke shells on the protesters in order to maintain law and order in the Anantnag area. The clashes led to disruption of the normal activities in the area and the movement of traffic both public and private was affected to a large extent.

Police officials said in the melee at least 35 persons, including Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Anantnag, Ramesh Kumar Jalla, SP (Operations) Zahid Malik, DSP (Operations) Tanveer Jeelani, SHO Anantnag, Liyaqat Khan and Assistant Sub Inspector Riyaz Ahmed along with a Commandant of CRPF and four police constables, were wounded in the clashes.

Meanwhile, a youth was injured during the police action against the protesters when a group of youth pelted stones on police and security forces in apple rich Sopore town of North Kashmir’s Baramulla district.

Reports said that as the Eid congregational prayers finished at the Jamia Masjid in the town, some of the youth assembled and wanted to take a procession towards the main Sopore chowk. This was not allowed by the police and security forces. The denial to take out the procession was not liked by this group of youth and they started pelting stones on the posse of police and security forces.

The police and security forces retaliated by lobbing smoke shells and before this they tried to disperse the protesters by resorting to lathi-charge.

Police officials said that the youth was injured during the brief protest as he fell from the stairs of Masjid and fractured his leg. They said the protesters were dispersed and normalcy returned in the area.

Clashes also erupted between protesters and police and security forces in some areas falling in the old city of Srinagar immediately after the culmination of Eid prayers. The groups of protesters were confronted by police and CRPF personnel stationed in the area to protests.

Reports said that clashes broke out in Saraf Kadal, Rajouri Kadal and the adjoining areas of the Nalamar road. The clashes carried out for a brief time and the situation turned normal in the area after the protests ended.

Meanwhile, an unidentified pistol borne militant escaped from a busy area in Anantnag area after he failed to shoot a recruit constable near Mehindi Kadal area in the Anantnag town.

"An unidentified pistol borne militant tried to shot a recruit constable near Mehindi Kadal, Anantnag, falling under the jurisdiction of police station Saddar, Anantnag. However, the vigilant constable on duty got hold of him and tried to overpower the militant. Due to huge crowd in the market, the militant couldn't fire and managed to escape," a police spokesman said.

Yes, you're right, there is no such thing as Pakistan occupied Kashmir, I agree with you.

there is no occupied Kashmir at all that is my point.

Incredible brave woman you mean bilalbhai. there are good indians and she is one of them

Yes, and what is most telling is the overwhelming Indian reaction to her. Rather than address the issues she raises, the Indian response is to attack her personally, glorify and promote threats to her life, and to adopt an attitude of denial.

The reason, of course, is that Indians have no response to the facts of Kashmir's brutalization. The only thing they have is blind nationalism and ritualistic chest beating.

Chinese hate Indians, Pakistanis hate Indians, Bengalis hate Indians, Sri Lankans hate Indians, and now even Indians hate Indians. Looks like some people didn't get the memo.

Afghans hate Pakistanis , Iranians hate Paks, Indians hate Paks..did Pak get the memo ?

Only a few days ago:

17 security men injured as clashes mar Eid festivities

How many times you are going to spam the same news ? Is that what they call attention _______ ?

 

[Roybot]

No way, now India is doomed, and there goes Kashmir.

No one gives a sh*t about what this woman has to say.

Afghans hate Pakistanis , Iranians hate Paks, Indians hate Paks..did Pak get the memo ?

Iranians don't hate Pakistanis. Afghans hate everyone.

How many times you are going to spam the same news ? Is that what they call attention _______ ?

I'd say that it's important news, & people should know about what is transpiring in Kashmir in a thread on Kashmir.

How many times have Paks attacked Najam Sethi's message or NFP's message than attacking them ?

Whatever they say they immediately become unpatriotic, anti-Army, liberal fascists etc..

A mirror is what you guys sorely need.

The reason, of course, is that Indians have no response to the facts of Kashmir's brutalization. The only thing they have is blind nationalism and ritualistic chest beating.

Nothing trumps National Sovereignty. Those who are not willing to live under Indian 'occupation' can move to the land that gives them what they want.

How many times have Paks attacked Najam Sethi's message or NFP's message than attacking them ?

But they aren't threatened of sedition charges in Pakistan like AR is in India.

Iranians don't hate Pakistanis. Afghans hate everyone.

Same I can say for Bengalis or Sri Lankans....And no the common Afghan hates the "dal-roti" Pak Punjabi (that is what they call in their forums) more than anything else for causing so much destruction on their nation.

I'd say that it's important news, & people should know about what is transpiring in Kashmir in a thread on Kashmir.

Posting once is enough. People can read. If the same news is posted again and again it is called spamming.

But they aren't threatened of sedition charges in Pakistan like AR is in India.

That is because they don't ask for Balochistan to go independent of Pakistan. They are true Pakistanis ,who all the while condemning the excesses of the Army, don't call for secession or compromising their national sovereignity.

It does not matter id its Arundati Roy or her baap. Who ever calls for dis-memberment of Indian Union are legally liable to be prosecuted for sedition.That is called Rule of Law.Democracy does not mean giving a free run to hippie anarchists.
