We abhor the killings

There goes the saying “every action has an opposite reaction “. We have become painfully aware of it, the present unbearable situation has made us so.
The seed of the unrest was sown the day CTG was abolished by the fifteenth amendment of the constitution. The sprout should have been uprooted but instead it was allowed to grow and become a gigantic tree, which is making the atmosphere poisonous.
As the incumbent government overlooked the people as if they do not exist, people gave their support to the political parties who became their spokesmen and vowed to establish their right.
We abhor the killings and injuring innocent people. Miscreants are taking advantage of the volatile condition of the country. If there were stability this sort of incidents would never have happened. So, it starts from the same point again, the absence of an acceptable election is the root of all evils, it must be redeemed otherwise peace would remain a far cry.
