    Restraint is a difficult word...
    Especially in combat situation...
    Protesters must realise patience is running out...
    Come to mainstream India...
    Mr. Modi must allow all Indians to buy properties in J & K....

    Good job by security forces.

    Those jihadis don't deserve any humanitarian treatment. Let anti national brigade meet President of India another 25 times complaining that they feel insecured in the country. ...well they deserve that.

    But our security forces should give a damn to them and should stop showing restraint against these stone pelters. Value of life of the soldier is paramount. ..hence just kill those anti nationals.

    We should have similar policy against 'gau rakshak' who take law into their hands and kill innocents.

    Jai Hind.
