"I want to tell Pakistan, if it has any sympathy for Kashmiris, it shouldn't provoke them to attack police stations -- and save youth from being killed," the Chief Minister said.

The meeting with Modi came just two days after Home Minister Rajnath Singh's visit to Srinagar during which he met with Mehbooba, among others, as the Valley continued to remain on the boil and curfew continued for the 50th day.
