This is apropos of the Editorial of Radiance (9-15 February). The case which the editorial refers to is just an example of all what Armed Forces personnel are doing in the regions where the AFSPA is imposed. Those regions can only be likened with that of military rule without any exaggeration. It is curfew-like situation all time without any official declaration. If a person is leaving his home in the morning, no one can guarantee his safe return in the evening. Violation of human rights in those regions is reported every now and then. But, hardly a violator is punished or prosecuted. The government should ponder over the issue and reach to a logical conclusion.
