How declaring Indian citizens as targets puts a moral strain on Kashmiri insurgency and the majority of the region’s nearly eight million Muslims, the movement’s core support base
The villagers had washed nearly all the blood off the dirty mud track where five Muslim Indian labourers were shot dead by insurgents on Tuesday evening in the village of Katrasoo, in Kulgam district, India-administered Kashmir.
“What is there to see except the fact of their abject poverty,” said an elderly man, pointing to the room. Fearing a backlash, the Indian government had asked its citizens to leave the region. But such was their faith in the local hospitality that they returned only after a month. After all, no Indian worker—more than half a million had been coming in the past few years for better wages and salubrious weather--had been killed in the past 30 years of insurgency.
