At a time when most of the Indian common people are calling for war with Pakistan in the wake of the cowardly terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir, veteran Indian spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has come up with another solution. The whole country is still in a state of anguish and shock after the dastardly attack on the CRPF personnel last week. In one of the worst attacks on the Indian security forces, at least 44 CRPF personnel lost their lives on Thursday after an SUV loaded with explosives rammed into a bus carrying the soldiers.
Since the attack, a wave of outrage and anger has been witnessed all over the nation and rightly so. The act was nothing less than inhumane and has been condemned worldwide. But while the majority think war or a surgical strike is the best possible answer, Ashwin as a different take on this. He reckons that it is high time to find a permanent solution in order to bring an end to these dastardly acts.

He took to Twitter to express his views and wrote, “As families try to bear the loss of their dear ones, these sort of incidences have been happening far too frequently and I really hope that there is a permanent solution achieved. The blood shed by our Jawans should at least matter for the cause. Jai Hind”

As the aftermath of the attack, the already tensed cricketing ties between India and Pakistan is set to be further deteriorated. India and Pakistan have not played a bilateral series since 2012 and the resumption is unlikely to occur anytime in the future as well. Both the countries have only played against each other in ICC tournaments or the Asia Cup. However, there are now calls to boycott Pakistan in the upcoming World Cup as well.
On Sunday, the IMG-Reliance also pulled out of the Pakistan Super League and thus stopped the worldwide broadcasting of the game. DSport, which was broadcasting the games in India, had also done the same on Saturday.
