#BREAKING: Two teachers killed in broad daylight in Srinagar, Kashmir - both from minority community of Sikh and Kashmiri Pandits. The teachers identified as Satinder Kour and Deepak Chand. IG Kashmir Vijay Kumar confirms the development. Security forces have reached the spot.
This is the Government Boys Higher Secondary School in Iddhah area of Srinagar where the terrorists killed two Sikh and Hindu teachers today. The school is now a security fortress.

Who will protect the minority Kashmiri Hindus and Sikhs of Kashmir?

Is anyone listening?
This silence is deafening.

J&K Police had Intel inputs about possible killings of minority community in Kashmir.

Government failed to protect minority Hindus & Sikhs in valley. You can’t imagine the fear psychosis.

And where are those who said these are not religious killings?
Names of the two victims killed today in the senseless barbaric Islamist terror attack in Kashmir are Supinder Kour and Deepak Chand. Supinder is from Budgam in Kashmir while Deepak is from Patoli Mangotrian in Jammu.

Prayers. Rest in Peace.
Om Shaanti!
J&K Police sources have now confirmed that all teachers of the school were lined up in Srinagar. ID Cards and Mobiles phones were checked. All were interrogated by terrorists. Most teachers were let go. Presumably Muslims. Hindu and Sikh teacher were killed.
Supinder Kour was the principal of the Srinagar school where she was killed. Her mother in mourning at their home in Kashmir screams in tears that terrorists should have killed her instead of her daughter. This is heart wrenching. May almighty give courage to the family.

There was no twitter in 1990. The Kashmiri Hindu exodus went unheard, unseen. Today my heart breaks as I hear about the fresh exodus in 2021. Several Hindu families have left Srinagar and Anantnag in fear after recent brutal killings. Some packing their bags in tears. I am numb.
A young J&K Police man from Kashmiri Pandit community deployed in Jammu right now tells me that his family members who stay in their ancestral home in Baramulla of North Kashmir are leaving tomorrow morning for Jammu. This boy wanted to be a singer, difficult life made him a cop.
A well-known Kashmiri Pandit business family has left Srinagar today. They didn’t leave in last 32 years. Their grandson called me from abroad requesting if I speak to his grandfather who was the only one unwilling to leave even now. Tomorrow he might leave as well. Imagine.

It’s a sleepless night for Kashmiri Hindus staying in the valley. Bindroo family has been a prominent Kashmiri Pandit family who stayed on even during peak of terrorism. Killing of a 70 year old man who gave medicines all these decades to the ailing Kashmiris is just bizarre.
I’ve been on phone with Hindu families in Kashmir. Some in constant fear, others in tears. Helpless. They’ve to think twice before attending funeral of Makhan Lal Bindroo who was killed by terrorists. Why can’t Govt provide safety to Kashmiri Hindus even after 32 years of exodus?
A Kashmiri Hindu friend with her toddler daughter has to travel to Kashmir tomorrow morning. Her daughter’s first visit to homeland. She calls to ask if it is safe to travel. ‘I have been never so scared. This is my first travel with ***. Isliye Itna darr lag raha hai’, she says.

This shameless collector in Chattisgarh not only abused his power but also slapped an innocent boy out on the road during pandemic and slammed his phone on the road. Not only should he be dismissed from service but there should be FIR. @bhupeshbaghel

I feel bad for the family of this collector. Imagine if this is the level of violence on the road, what kind of domestic violence will he be capable of? I hope CM Chattisgarh, DGP Chattisgarh take note and act. Need to set a precedent. Also DoPT GOI as well. @DrJitendraSingh
LATEST: Collector Surajpur District of Chattisgarh Ranbir Sharma has issued an apology for his behaviour. This is being circulated by Chattisgarh Govt in media for damage control. He is a Govt servant and has to abide by civil service rules. Chattisgarh Govt needs to act ASAP.
