In the PIL, it has been submitted that whatever may be the policy of the Government with regard to dealing with the militants and separatists, it cannot be a policy of using the money of the common man for providing benefits to the separatists and preachers of militancy and their agents, who are challenging the accession of the State to the Union.
“Respondents are involved in inciting large scale violence in Kashmir valley which has resulted into death of thousands of people and members of security forces.
