I asked myself what my own response be, being part of a larger Kashmiri Pandit community, uprooted during the 1989-90 mass uprising by the Muslim majority? Most of the Muslim Kashmiri friends I interact with and enjoy a warm relationship with were either too young or not even born then. But for Kashmir watchers, policy makers and intelligence agencies, this latest round of violence is nothing to be alarmed about. It comes and goes, and never mind what the majority of people from the Valley feel about that. It was a haunting sight, the face of a 14-year girl pock-marked with pellets, her eyes completely damaged.
