In Srinagar, dozens of people were injured, today, when Indian police personnel subjected a procession led by the APHC Chairman, Mirwaiz Umar Farooq to heavy lathi-charge and excessive tear-gassing. The procession taken out from Gojwara was leading to Rajouri Kadal when intercepted by the troops.
People on the occasion raised slogans: jeeway jeeway Pakistan and we want freedom. Clashes between the protesters and the troops continued till last report came in. Indian police personnel resorted to brute force to disperse another procession in Kupwara town.
