The security forces are facing a tough time to ward off stone-pelters who are impeding anti-terrorist operations to help terrorists escape safely. The security forces had to open fire in self-defence to ensure that the terrorists are punished and do not escape. The parents and teachers of these young stone-pelters must be advised not to interfere with the anti-terrorist operations of the army to safeguard their own lives. The intelligence sources have revealed that these stone-pelters are paid Rs 7,000 to Rs 20,000 per month by the separatists who need to be punished for secessionist activities
