Najeeb Mubarki in New Delhi

From The Economic Times: “The age of Stone Wars in Kashmir”

“So why did the patent insanity of the last few days occur? Why does it happen repeatedly? Why did, day after day, the police and the CRPF shoot dead youngsters who were out protesting, rioting, against the deaths of the day before?”…

“..the broadest answer as to why those killings took place is that there is a denial of that political reality. That, leaving Pakistan out entirely, New Delhi refuses to recognise and engage with the fact that it faces a political crisis in Kashmir.”
