J&K UNREST

The situation in Kashmir is very grave. People are out on the streets and are targeting the police and the forces. While it is a free for all on part of the protesters, for the police and the security forces it is about maintaining calm. It may be easy to ask the police to treat the protesters with kid gloves and come down heavily on the militants, in reality it is extremely difficult to put this into action. On the one hand when people are expressing their solidarity with militants and making a hero out of them, the police and the army have to exercise restraint and also face Pakistan which is taking full advantage of the situation. These are the biggest challenges for Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti in such difficult times.
