SRINAGAR, Oct 18 — Two labourers were killed by gunmen in Indian-administered Kashmir Sunday, police said, the latest victims of a fresh outbreak of violence that has sent jitters through the disputed Muslim-majority region.
The killings came a day after a street vendor and a labourer, also from Bihar, were killed in separate shootings. One was Muslim, the other was Hindu. Tensions have risen in Kashmir since August 2019 when Hindu-nationalist Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government scrapped the region’s semi-autonomy and brought it under New Delhi’s direct rule.
The latest killings come hard on the heels of a series of street shootings last week that left seven more civilians dead, among them three members of the local Hindu and Sikh communities.
