In Bihar's capital Patna, Kashmiri traders told NDTV they were attacked by a mob.
"A number of men wielding sticks, gathered outside my shop. They raised slogans. I didn't even know about Pulwama link then. But they destroyed the goods and beat me and the workers," Bashir Ahmed, a trader from Kashmir, told NDTV.
"I am working in Patna for the past 35 years and never faced any problem or discrimination. I live here for 6 months every year and like Patna better than Kashmir. I have nothing to do with politics. I am often so busy that I don't get a chance to catch up on news," he added.
