Pulwama shopkeeper critical after stone attack People defying protest calendar targetted 11/22/2016 11:59:05 PM Early Times Report Srinagar, Nov 22: A shopkeeper was critically injured after some miscreants attacked him with stones for violating the shutdown call of separatists and opening his shop at Nikas village of south Kashmir's Pulwama district. The miscreants attacked the shopkeeper Muhammad Altaf Ganaie, son of Abdul Hameed Ganaie, with stones when he was at his shop. "The stone-pelters resorted to heavy stone pelting in which Altaf was badly injured. They attacked him for violating the shutdown call by the separatist leadership," sources said. Altaf was critically injured and was removed to a local sub-center at Rajpora where from he was shifted to SMHS Srinagar in critical condition. Meanwhile, protesters also broke down windowpanes of vehicles in Wusan area of Kangan. Attacks on business establishments and private vehicles are increasing with each passing day as more and more people are defying the separatists' protest call across the Valley. In the last five months of turmoil, a couple of people have died while many more received critical injuries after miscreants attacked them with stones. "Since the protest calendar of the so-called united Hurriyat is fast fizzling out, the paid agents of the separatists are now targeting the people who defy the calendar. It's high time for the Hurriyat leadership to read the writing on the wall and call off their calendar to avoid embarrassing themselves further," said a shopkeeper in Hari Singh High Street area of Srinagar.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
