This refers to the editorial, “Peace in progress” (September 7). It is unfortunate that the separatist leaders turned down the invitation of the all-party delegation that visited Kashmir for a dialogue, to restore peace in the valley.
Frankly speaking, the separatists are provoking the vulnerable youths to confront with the police and security forces to highlight the Kashmir issue. The separatists deserve strict punishment. The Union Government must cut down on on funds and security given to them.
