| Video Discription | (21 Mar 2000) English/Nat It has been suggested that the massacre of 35 sikhs in Kashmir on Monday was orchestrated by Pakistan to destabilise the region. A political analyst and a former security chief believe that the objective of the attack was to bring about outside intervention in the disputed region. No one has admitted responsibility for the slayings which occurred about 40 miles (64 kilometres) from Srinagar, Kashmir's summer capital. A political analyst and a former Indian security chief believe that Monday's massacre of 35 Sikhs in India's northern Kashmir state was orchestrated by Pakistan. Pran Chopra says that the objective of the attack - coming on the eve of U-S President Bill Clinton's arrival in the region - would be to bring about outside intervention. SOUNDBITE: (English) "If an attack on Sikhs over there in Kashmir could be made to look like could be made to look like, in the streets of Delhi, as an attack by the Indian security forces upon Sikhs, then you could inflame an incident in Delhi. And things being what they are, a fire once lit - you never know how large it may become. And that would then be right where Clinton happens to be, therefore the underscoring of the point that this is a dangerous place, Kashmiri problem must be solved by the world, otherwise these things will go on happening." SUPER CAPTION: Pran Chopra, Political Analyst A former security chief believes that such attempts to destabilise India are nothing new and he says the attacks are likely to continue. SOUNDBITE: (English) "The people who are planning these incidents, they imagine that this will be followed, and since they imagine that this will be followed, this incident, they will repeat these incidents, they will probably feel that okay one incident didn't achieve that particular result, so lets repeat it, lets repeat it once, twice, three times." SUPER CAPTION: KPS Gill - former security chief in charge of Punjab Ethnic Sikhs in New Delhi have been expressing their anger and outrage over the massacre in which gunmen entered the village of Chati Singhpura Mattan after dark on Monday and forced the residents from their homes. They segregated the men from the women, announcing that they were conducting a crackdown. Indian security forces operate similarly when searching a neighborhood for militants they suspect may be hiding there. Then, it's reported, the gunmen opened fire on the men, killing 35 of them. One man was critically wounded and taken to hospital. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack in the village, which is about 40 miles (64 kilometres) from Srinagar, Kashmir's summer capital. Army troops began searching the hills and forests nearby for any trace of the assailants. The Sikh community has lived mostly undisturbed in the Kashmir Valley, the only area in predominantly Hindu India with a Muslim majority. The Sikhs, concentrated in a handful of towns and villages, are generally businessmen and run the trucking companies that supply the valley.
