J&K Congress in—charge Rajni Patel, along with party president G A Mir Friday visited ML Bindroos residence at Indra Nagar in Srinagar.

“28 civilians have been killed in the valley so far 21 one of them are Muslims, and seven are from minority communities including 2 non-locals. Who is responsible for these killings,” Patel told news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO)
