Schizophrenic India: Barracks & Barbed Wires


The lady accidentally stepped in this frame - but it resulted in capturing the question i had in my mind then. How does the local civil population perceive the daunting presence of the army in their area, especially so in the north east states which are highlights for anti-AFSPA campaigns?
