Gautam Gambhir lost his calm on Twitter again as recently CRPF jawans were attacked by Kashmiri stone pelters and still got blamed for retaliating in defense.
Gambhir had tweeted a solution for those who are after the armed forces in the disturbed area of Kashmir. He asked the politicians to shift to Kashmir and live with their families without any security to under the plight of armed forces.
Am devastated. Wonder if India still thinks there is room for talks with stone-pelters! Come on, let’s get real. Show me the political will and my armed forces, my @crpfindia will show you the results. https://t.co/PdtCNVbOqr

I have a solution:Make it mandatory for politicians to spend a week in troubled parts of Kashmir along with their families&without security. Only then they b allowed to contest 2019 elections. No other way to make them understand d plight of armed forces & a well-meaning Kashmiri https://t.co/PdtCNVbOqr

Indian cricketer was lauded for opening up on the issue, but Tanvir Sadiq, advisor of former Jammu and Kashmir Cheif Minister Omar Abdullah, didn't agree with him.
Tanvir made a personal comment on Gambhir about his cricket career and later asked him to visit Kashmir to understand the situation of the locals there. "I too have a solution @GautamGambhir: you leave cricket since you’re not doing much there and be my guest in Kashmir & live in downtown Srinagar like I do & trust me no one will touch you!No other way to make you understand d plight of poor Kashmiris who are at the receiving end (sic)," he wrote.

Gambhir responded to the tweet and asked if they have done anything to make life easy in Kashmir? He also blamed the politicians for taking advantage of people. "Whtt did u guys do for so many years for Kashmiri’s rather than living on taxpayers money and enjoying all the comforts and making fool of innocent Kashmiri’s (sic)," he tweeted.

Tanvir replied to the former Delhi Daredevils captain and asked him to donate some money to the forces. He may not be aware of Gambhir's contribution to the armed forces. The Indian batsman has agreed to take education expense of many military brats.
Gautam we did a lot & I can gladly show u while I show u also the innocent Kashmiris being punished for no fault of theirs.Btw, Y don’t u donate some allegedly tax evading money of urs to some good work- no NOT for Kashmiris but for Fauji fund. Atleast you’ll be useful somewhere!
