Stone-Pelting Attack on Kashmir-Bound Bus in Haryana Injures Passenger; Action Sought
A Delhi-Srinagar luxury sleeper bus was attacked with stones near Kurukshetra, Haryana, injuring an elderly Kashmiri passenger. The incident reportedly began over a parking dispute at Divine Star Dhaba and escalated into verbal abuse and stone-pelting, with passengers alleging being called "terrorists." Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah condemned the attack, urging Haryana authorities to take prompt action. Haryana police have detained two men and described the incident as stemming from a dispute rather than a hate crime. Investigations continue amid political reactions and concerns over Kashmiri travelers' safety.
