A 12 year old falls to police violence on the birthday of non violent Gandhi

Gandhi led one of the most non-violent struggles in the modern world, to lead India to freedom. While India takes pride in the non-violent tactics of Gandhi, its police rarely displays this pride on the ground. In Kashmir people witness police violence day in and day out. On october 2nd this year, when India was celebrating 140th birthday of Gandhi, its police painted a street of Kashmir, red, with the blood of a 12 year old boy. He was killed by a smoke shell fired by the police.
It makes good sense to celebrate non-violence but how about practicing it on the streets of Kashmir once for a change, may be on the birthday of Gandhi at least. I don't understand, what would happen if people are allowed to express themselves once without hurting them, without killing kids. Shed the hypocrisy of celebrating the non-violence of Gandhi when your police in Kashmir is perpetrating the violence of the worst kind. They don't even spare kids. I am at loss of words to express my disdain for what has happened on October 2nd. After all that Kashmir has gone through, does India still think it is going to win the hearts and minds of Kashmiris. I suggest going through a reality check.
