Yatra has been going on for centuries now, and never has any kashmiri tried to stop it or harm them in anyways.Why has this land issue come up suddenly?this is all dirty politics, dont u understand this??Please dont make it a hindu/muslim riot kind of thing, we have larger issues to deal with in our country.Blacksheep are in every community, that doesnt mean we generalize them and speak bad about the whole community.I have muslim friends and most of them are better than others.Who at the end of the day is getting affected???Its the common man whos evening meal depens on whether he leaves for work during day or not, whether its jammu or kashmir...All vegabonds starting these riots are well fed and backed up by political parties.

Have you ever been to Amarnath Yatra? The Yatra is highly risky one - not due to geographical location, but due to terrorist presence. All the vehicles are sent with total security of army and armed police. No travelling after evening. Inspite of this there are regular attacks on pilgrim groups. The Yatris find it very difficult to find suitable night stay places - the tents are of poor condition and make shift arrangements not fit to hold older people and protect them from extreme cold. The ponywallahs are all muslims and every pony rider is bound to fall atleast once during the trip. The free food provided is by the hindu groups - not by the government. I have been on yatra and I know the facts. Allocating some unoccupied / unused land in no way harms the interest of anybody, but for political reasons the Congress wants to make this an issue.

Dear Smarty - please explain the local muslim populace's aggression by coming out on the streets to oppose this. It is shameful that Hindus (the majority community) have to beg to muslims (minorities) for their holy places, hindus have no right on land in Muslim majority Kashmir, Hindus have to take permit to visit Christian majority Nagaland and Mizoram. Arise an awake Hindus.
