  • Ashraf lost one uncle, another is injured.

    “I have never thought about Hindu-Muslim divide,” agrees Ashraf. “Coming from Kashmir, I know that terrorists target all humanity,” he says, sitting by the bed of Farooq at RML Hospital. With stitches on his head and two deep gashes on his chin and cheek, his uncle nods in agreement.

    However, the blasts did snuff out something the Kashmir violence didn’t. “We came to Delhi because this place is cosmopolitan, we wanted to get away from the violence,” says Ashraf. “But after this blast, everything is like Kashmir: the security, blasts, deaths. We are going back.”
