Hospitals in the Indian-controlled Kashmir have been overwhelmed with an increasing number of patients hit by pellets fired from shotguns used by Indian forces despite international calls for a ban on the weapons. As Press TV’s Munawar Zaman reports, doctors are trying hard to treat serious eye injuries with many of the patients on the brink of losing their sight.
