J&K govt to drop 4,500 cases against 1st time stone-pelters
On the suggestion of government interlocutor Dineshwar Sharma, over 4,500 cases against Kashmiri youth involved in stone pelting for the first time will be dropped. The cases are part of 11,500 cases registered since July 2016. "My attempt was to change the narrative in the state to peace and for that I need support of youths and students," Sharma said.
