Sood said they condemn the selective killings and selective outrage in the Valley and people who are talking only about Lakhimpur Kheri and Hathras are silent about the killings of Hindus and Sikhs in Kashmir.

Sood said those who are claiming themselves to be champions of human and Dalit rights are mum on the issue. “Police should nab the culprits behind these killings,” he said.
On the occasion, Vibodh Gupta termed the recent killings in Kashmir as barbaric and offered his condolences to the families in this time of grief. He termed the attacks as a cowardly act.

“Such acts are barbaric and highly condemnable. These things would not be tolerated anymore. These attacks are aimed to disturb the peace in the region,” he said.
Gupta said security agencies should ensure the safety of civilians in Kashmir and particularly the minorities and urged police to investigate the cases and nab the culprits behind the attack.
