Jammu and Kashmir: Migrant labourer from Bihar shot dead by terrorists in Anantnag
The victim, whom the police identified as Raju Sah of Bihar, succumbed to injuries during treatment.
BJP national secretary of Kissan Morcha, Sukhminderpal Singh Grewal, said on Monday the government should discontinue with the practice of handing over to their relatives the bodies of terrorists killed in encounter with security forces in Jammu and Kashmir.
Grewal, who visited Kishtwar where BJP leader Anil Parihar and his brother Ajit Parihar were recently killed by terrorists, said he would write a letter to Prime Minister Narendera Modi suggesting that bodies of terrorists be utilised for research at medical colleges.
He said residents of Kishtwar showed exemplary communal harmony after the killing of the BJP activists.

Grewal said it was unfortunate that the separatists and pro-Pakistan elements were using bodies of killed terrorists to keep the pot boiling and create anti-India rhetoric to radicalise the youth in the Valley.
He accused the separatist leaders of acting like puppets of Pakistan and misleading the youth of Kashmir.
He urged Governor Satyapal Malik to take strict action against those elements who were trying to revive terrorism in Kishtwar and other areas of Jammu.
