The official Twitter account of PTI tweeted out a video showing mutual violence among army men and citizens. In their caption, they have criticised the Indian government for “alienating” Kashmir and further claimed that men, women, and children who are unarmed are being attacked by the Indian Army. They have also added a sensational statement that the curfews and media blackouts instilled by the Indian Government cannot contain revolution which is the result of “grave human rights violations”.
