In a statement issued here, Shah said dozens of pellets victims are in critical condition. He said the last year’s wounds are still afresh in our hearts and minds and we can never forget the 2016 “martyrs”.
“We will continue to ask the world leadership to make India stop the use of lethal weapons like pellet guns,” he said.
