Srinagar: Opposition National Conference leader Omar Abdullah on Wednesday hit out at Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti for her “self-promoting” tour of Delhi when three persons were killed in firing by security forces in Handwara.
“Three people died as a result of firing by security forces and what does the J&K CM do? She continues her self-promoting tour of Delhi,” Omar wrote on Twitter.
“This is the same person who until a year ago would rush anywhere in the valley to shed contrived tears at the slightest provocation,” Omar wrote about the Chief Minister.
Three persons — two youths and a woman — were killed in firing by security forces at Handwara town, 85 km from here, during protests against the alleged molestation of a young girl by the army.
The girl has denied that she was molested by the army personnel and accused two local youth of hatching a conspiracy. PTI
