I am just shocked to read how far the several readers on this list can
speculate without checking the ground realities just to further one cause.
It is disgusting and demeaning if one underlines such possibilities which
could be only thought by a movie director. Even if there is a slim
possibility of militants dressed up armed forces doing such activities, why
is it that rapes in Nalbari and Churanchandpur in Assam and Manipur by
Indian Army despite police records have been hushed? how is it there are
such a large number of missing persons both in north east and kashmir? what
does the reader have to say about mass graves found in kashmir, manipur and
in bastar, in the heart of this country? they were done by men in uniform or
uniformed men?

i dont know if it applies to your reason or not dear reader, since there
were such instances where armed forces took such steps of mass execution or
gang rapes, that's how the extremists or terrorists got theses idea of using
the same tactics on the people. could that not be a possibility? how many
possibilities do you want to underline here dear reader sitting comfortably
inside your airconditioned rooms watching 24*7 news channels? down with such
arm-chair speculation and shoddy analysis of a situation that's not only
affecting local people in these problem areas but also making it impossible
to find out which particular coterie of armed forces are behind such
activities making it into behemoth instead of protector.
