Indian forces try to stop separatists' march in Kashmir |
2015-05-22 |
[DAWN] Hundreds of government forces with automatic weapons patrolled the streets of India-held Kashmire's main city to stop a rally by separatists to mark the anniversaries of the liquidations of two Kashmiri leaders. The two, Mirwaiz Mohammed Farooq and Abdul Gani Lone, had supported Kashmire's right to vote on whether it should be independent or governed either by India or Pakistain, nuclear-armed nations that have fought two wars since 1947 over its control. The Himalayan territory is currently split by a heavily militarised line of control between India and Pakistain. |
