It is a ‘positive sign’ and won’t amount to violation of human rights, he says
The people in Kashmir are now saying they will “lynch terrorists” and this is a “positive sign”, Chief of Defence Staff Gen. Bipin Rawat said at the Times Now summit.
“Nobody [terrorists] are being allowed to go scot free… The same locals are now giving information about the terrorists. In fact, now what we are told is, the locals are saying we will lynch the terrorists, which is a very positive sign that is coming in,” Gen. Rawat said on the ground situation.
“You go to social media. There are now statements coming out where locals are saying, if you want, we will now start lynching these terrorists because we will not allow these [terror attacks] to happen,” he said when asked the source of his claim.
