According to eyewitnesses, who were among the stranded passengers, the students manhandled the young passengers who refused to raise any slogans, after which tempers rose.
The Local Jammu students gathered in heavy numbers outside the gate and got Indian flags fro somewhere and threw stones on Kashmiris locked inside the hostel ground.
“Nobody raised any pro Pakistan slogan, they are justifying their violent and shameful behavior by giving their hooliganism a national colour,” an eyewitness told The Kashmiriyat.
He said that there was no provocation whatsoever from the side of Kashmiri passengers, it was the Jammu students who asked Kashmiris to raise slogans.
There is no truth whatsoever to these slogans, they are just lying so that they can escape Police and their anger.
“Nobody can touch them, this is what is happening in india, anything is justified in the name of nationalism,” the eyewitness told The Kashmiriyat.
Police officials reached the spot and pacified the locals who misbehaved with Kashmir women.
