Its human rights violation by the terrorists. Why can't the terrorists compensate the family members of the victims. Does the government have to compensate you if robbers break into your house? It is high time to get rid of these terrorists and make life safe for the common man.

Its human rights abuses by the Rebels. these kinds of abuses are against Geneva conventions or humanatarian law. State should also break unlawfull killings and so-called encounters. Dialouge with the rebels is the only way of longlasting peace.
