SRINAGAR, Apr 13: Opposition National Conference leader Omar Abdullah today hit out at Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti for her “self-promoting” tour of Delhi when four persons were killed in firing by security forces in Handwara.
“4 (Four) 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.
Four persons — three 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.
