It is unfortunate that a citizen of this country has been killed in an encounter. There is no doubt that those responsible for the fake encounter killing must be brought to books as early as possible according to the law of the land.
One must understand that to tackle a terror problem being abetted and fanned by our neighbour, of the magnitude that we witness in J&K, there may be some instances where innocent citizens may get caught in the cross fire, which is inevitable, as terrorists/anti-nationals uses civilians as a cover to put the blame on the Govt and to turn people against the Govt. While we must ensure that these are kept at the absolute minimum level, we must understand and appreciate the ground reality as well under which the Police & Security forces operate. Politicians must not be allowed to misuse such incidents for their personal ends. Even if they try to do, as responsible citizens, we should not fall prey to their propaganda on these.
