Kindly correct my article
Jammu and Kashmir is simmering continuously for the thirty-sixth day, it’s now over a week violence is showing no sign of dying down. It all started when the Governor of the state allocated the land to Amarnath Pilgrims and then back pedaled from the decision. First it was the separatist who took to the street against the decision and now opposition is demanding the revoke of the cancellation of the allotment of land.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Kindly correct my article
-I think you don't say a place is 'simmering'.
Trouble/unrest/conflict/strife is simmering in Jammu and Kashmir or the situation in Jammu and Kashmir is tense
-backpedal = backtrack = back out
-took to the streets to protest against the decision
-why 'allocation' of land then 'allotment of land'? I think 'allotment' is more appropriate.
- demanding the revocation(revoke) of the allotment order

Simmering is the common word I am coming across all newspaper so i used that here
Is backpedaling is correct to use in the above article?
allotment of land is correct rather then allocation, thanks for correcting me.
Thanks for your kind help
