Realise that unless Pakistan is destroyed; jihadi terrorism in Kashmir will not end and Hindus will not be safe there. |
Srinagar (J&K) – When it is being claimed that jihadi terrorism is reducing in Jammu – Kashmir, on 5th October within 1-1/2 hours, in 3 terrorist attacks, Hindus were targeted in 2 places. In the first incident, the owner of a renowned Chemist shop, Makhanlal Bindroo was killed by terrorists breaking into the shop. 68-year-old Bindroo had not left Kashmir during the attack on Hindus in 1990. In another incident, a Hindu from Bihar was shot in the Lal Bazar area. In the 3rd incident, the President of the Taxi Union was shot dead in Bandipora. Terrorists have warned that outsiders should not grab local people’s employment.
