A school teacher - shot at by terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir's Kulgam - died of the gunshot injuries on Tuesday, the police have said. The teacher has been identified as Rajini Bhalla. The incident comes amid a spate of attacks on non-locals and weeks after the killing of a Kashmiri Pandit - Rahul Bhat - sparked protests. "Another targeted attack against a migrant government teacher in Kulgam area of South Kashmir. Reports of her condition are conflicting. Praying that she survives the attack," tweeted former chief minister Omar Abdullah. "#Terrorists #fired upon one woman #teacher at High School Gopalpora area of #Kulgam.
