An Indian paramilitary soldier stands in the middle of an empty street during a shutdown following calls by rebels and separatist politicians to boycott the Indian parliamentary elections in Srinagar, India, Wednesday, April 30, 2014. Authorities detained more than 600 Kashmiri residents in a crackdown on suspected separatists ahead of Wednesday's voting, police said Tuesday. Indian Kashmir elects only six members of India's 543-seat Parliament. Voting is being held over several days in the restive region so security forces can better guard the polls.(AP Photo/Bernat Armangue), APTOPIX
