New Delhi: Condemning the alleged incidents of harassment of Kashmiris, Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Friday asked states to ensure their safety.
His statement came in the wake of reports alleging that Kashmiri students in Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh were being threatened after incidents of stone pelting and assault on security personnel by youths in the Valley.
The Home Minister said proper inquiry should be initiated in each case and strongest possible action should be taken against the guilty.
