The Union Home Ministry had Saturday issued an advisory to all states and Union territories to take measures to ensure the safety and security of Kashmiris.
The advisory came hours after Home Minister Rajnath Singh assured an all-party meeting of doing the needful for the protection of the Kashmiri students and people who were allegedly threatened after the terrorist attack.
