Since last week, seven civilians have been killed in Srinagar alone.Former J&K Chief Minister Omar Abdullah took to Twitter to condemn the attack and called it an "inhuman act of terror".
Shocking news coming in again from Srinagar. Another set of targeted killings, this time of two teachers in a Govt school in Idgah area of the city. Words of condemnation are not enough for this inhuman act of terror but I pray for the souls of the deceased to rest in peace.
