With no iota of doubt, those victims are my kin and kin, my own blood and should we quieten the situation by just being silent? I don't think so! I would like to call for immediate restoration of peace and normalcy.
It is incumbent and imperative upon those responsible and law-abiding citizens or entities of India to look for immediate ways for peace restoration.
