On Sunday, at least 14 people died when an explosion occurred among a crowd protesting against Indian rule. Demonstrators hurling stones marched towards Kulgam town where Indian security was battling with armed Kashmiris.

At least 30 people were also injured during clashes with police forces who fired shotgun pellets and tear gas at the demonstrators. Indian atrocities have increased in IoK despite repetitive attempts by Pakistan to hold dialogues with India. Kashmiris have now resorted to fighting back as India refuses to acknowledge their demand for independence.
