Wani also slammed the lathi-charge on agitating youth in Jammu who were protesting against hiring of a black listed Aptech company by JKSSB for conducting written examinations and termed it a surprising move. Hiring Aptech for the examination is unacceptable and uncalled for, Wani said and demanded immediate revocation of the order.
