Winters are definitely going to be hot whether it is LOC or LAC people of Jammu and Kashmir are passing through a crucial phase. Villagers have more worries now as the winter stocking is not enough and the financial health in the rural areas is also poor due to the disruption of life for more than 13 months now.
Disturbing reports both from LAC in Ladakh and from the different sectors of LOC in Jammu and Kashmir have resulted in fresh fears among the common people about the possibility of “two front war”.
