My art is my therapy, says artist Neeraj Bakshi
Bakshi says animals have a special role in his theatre, as they seem to connect directly with the observer as the ardent human self, ‘breaking the fourth wall’.
Four Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorists, including the two who had killed TV artist Ambreen Bhatt, were gunned down in two separate overnight encounters with security forces in Kashmir on Friday.
Describing it as a major achievement, J&K DGP Dilbag Singh said the encounters erupted in Srinagar and Awantipora.
Two newly joined terrorists involved in killing of the TV artist Ambreen in Budgam on Wednesday were neutralised in the encounter at Aganhanzipora Awantipora in Pulwama district where they were trapped by security forces on Thursday night.

Two ‘C category’ terrorists of LeT have been killed in the other encounter that broke out in the Soura locality of Srinagar where a policeman was shot dead and his 7-years daughter injured by terrorists two days ago.
