STONES THROWN AT SCHOOL BUS: ONE CHILD CRITICAL

Two children were injured, one in critical condition, when unknown people threw stones at a private school bus this morning in Shopian in south Kashmir. There were as many as 50 children on the bus, including 4-year-old nursery students. A Class 2 student who suffered a head injury is in a critical condition in a hospital in Srinagar. Another boy who got hit on his head was discharged after treatment. It is not yet clear whether the school bus was the target of the assaulters or it was caught in clashes.
