Police fired teargas and rubber bullets to disperse hundreds of Kashmiri protesters who were protesting against the arrest of Kashmiri separatist leaders and youth. They were also protesting against alleged attempts by India's ruling right-wing Hindu nationalist Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to divide residents on the basis of religion and choke political space of Kashmiri separatists in Indian-controlled Kashmir.
