A Kashmiri Medical Representative (MR) shouts pro-freedom slogans during a demonstration in Srinagar August 21, 2008. Hundreds of MRs on Thursday held a protest due to a shortage of life-saving medicines in the restive Kashmir valley. The MRs say the shortage is the result of an economic blockade of the Muslim-dominated region by Hindu protesters, who are reacting against the government's decision to back down from allotting land to a Hindu shrine trust.
