JK BJP to hold 'indicative' protest

Jammu and Kashmir unit of BJP said today it will hold "indicative" protest on June 12 to protest against the arrest of sub-inspector Shiv Kumar Sharma.
The "encounter specialist" sub-inspector was arrested on June 4 for allegedly running a module of militants in Kishtwar district.
National executive member of BJP's youth wing, Sunil Sharma, said at a meeting at Kishtwar: "In order to resent the arrest of Shiv Krishan Sharma, the party has announced indicative protest on June 12 in the region."
He also warned of large-scale protest demonstrations if the state government did not stop "harassing the minority" in the region.

"In the next phases, large scale protest demonstrations, agitations, and bandhs will be held if the government does not stop harassing the minority in the region," he added.
Sharma also appealed to the state government to sack state minister for home Sajjad Ahamed Kichloo, alleging he was "hell bent to disrupt the peace".
