This is really concerning. My cousin lives in Rajouri and they've been facing these security issues for years. The common people suffer the most with all these restrictions and checkpoints. Hope peace returns to the valley soon.

While I appreciate the security measures, the vehicle checks often cause hours of delay for local commuters. There must be a better way to balance security with convenience for residents.

These encounters keep happening regularly in border areas. When will we have a permanent solution? The government needs to address the root cause rather than just reactive measures.
