A day after 27 Panchayat leaders resigned under threat from terror outfits in the Kashmir Valley, tension continued to soar. Another 22 panches and sarpanches from the Repan area of Sopore resigned today (Jan 15) fearing the wrath of jihadis. But, even as the tally of Panchayat resignations cross over 80, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah continues to look away venting his anger at the media instead of assuring his citizens. Should the center now step in and take tough action which the J&K govt is unable to do?
