Irom Sharmila to break 16-year fast, to contest elections in Manipur

I agree that sometimes Armed forces were misusing it,but AFSPA is required to maintain stability,if not in Manipur then certainly in Kashmir.Tell me,you've seen riots when Army shot dead a terrorist.Any other country of the world and you'd see Tanks crushing these rioters or would make an example of it.You've an example right in front of your eye,Pakistan.

When it comes about TTP,they don't even publish what is the casualty or level of destruction that happened in Zarb e Azb.And here we are,discussing heavy handedness on terrorist sympathizers,the same terrorism that killed or wounded tens of thousands in Kashmir,and which is being funded and operated as tool from across the border.

like every govt initiative, AFSPA, too had its reasons. but, today, it has morphed into a monster.
i dont have an iota of problem when our soldiers drill bullets into some random terrorist, but when some bad apples are committing heinous crimes on our mothers and sisters, are shielded by the AFSPA, i have a problem. i dunno much about JnK (where propaganda from different sources make rounds), but such incidents have happened in assam in aplenty and the guilty troops get away stamping AFSPA on our heads.
and its not this insult which makes me wary of AFSPA, its the continuous barrage of such instances (which goes unnoticed by national media, only some local newspapers print them) which alarm me the most. 1 innocent person wronged many times result in 1 extremist, and we are talking of states here. its a time bomb.

In a war,or in an insurgency,with or without AFSPA,govt forces commit wrongs.You should take example from West Bengal.One mine explosion near then Chief Minister's car,which followed by Police brutalities,created Lalgarh siege.

Of course Naxals engineered it,and Police fell right into their trap.No AFSPA was there,Yet this happened.You can think what can happen when danger a state with Insurgency poises.

AFSPA is definitely misused by a section of law enforcement officers and army,but which law doesn't?
