When 1 man rams truck on people & kills 84, the French Prez not scared of terming it 'Islamic Terror'. Why are we so apologetic to say so?

At least now, both Uniion & St Govts should STOP being apologetic about calling spade a spade & take strict action against all separatists.

He also said that it was wrong to ask the security forces in Kashmir to exercise restrain. This is at a time when the BJP government came under attack from the Opposition in the Rajya Sabha for allegedly using disproportionate force causing over 40 deaths and close to 2,000 injuries that include fatal eye injuries and cases of blinding due to use of rubber pellets.

In a series of tweets, the international Working President of Vishwa Hindu Parishad justified the use of force on Kashmiri civilians citing attacks on the army, Kashmiri Pandits, and Amarnath Yatris.

In Kashmir, its Palestine style stone pelting + Iraq style Grenade attacks on security forces, Kashmiri pundits camps & Amarnath pilgrims.

Unfair to advise security forces 'Samyam barto' (Keep restraint) when they being brutally attacked by Jihadi mobs with grenades! STOP it!

They have been attacking security forces after attacking Kashmiri pundits & we are sending doctors for them??????? Enough!

Even during floods,when Bharat's army, navy, airforce heroes were distributing food packets, same separatists pelted stones on helicopters!

Now, if 1948 people were injured & hospitalized, means they broke curfew & attacked security forces. How can such attackers be 'Maasoom'???

— Dr Pravin Togadia (@DrPravinTogadia) July 18, 2016

All those who attacked security forces should be arrested immediately. At least 1948 who took treatment in hospitals & their data available,

Togadia's tweets followed Home Minister Rajnath Singh's statement in the Upper House that he called the Jammu and Kashmir government, directing them to use restrain.

I will talk to J&K CM about providing ration to all those people who arent able to leave their houses due to curfew: HM Rajnath Singh

He also questioned the practice of sending government doctors to treat protestors.

Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad, who opened the debate on the issue in Rajya Sabha today, said that the current situation in the Valley seems to be worse than that in the 1990s which is considered the worst phase of militancy in Kashmir. Countering him, Togadia said that had the then government used force, the current unrest could have been avoided.

Apt statement Union HM giving on Kashmir matters in Parliament. Gulam Nabi himself accepted that in 1990 they didn't do such strict action!

— Dr Pravin Togadia (@DrPravinTogadia) July 18, 2016

Gulam Nabi himself accepting that no such strict action in 1990 itself shows that the then Govt by choice did not protect Kashmiri Pundits!
