SRINAGAR: Hitting out at Centre for asserting in the Supreme Court (SC) that Rohingya Muslims living in the country pose as serious threat to the national security, former Chief Minister Omar Abdullah said that no such intelligence reports came up for discussion in Unified Headquarters meetings before 2014.

“This threat, at least in J&K, is a post 2014 development. No such intelligence reports ever came up for discussion in Unified HQ meetings,” Mr Abdullah, who is the working president of National Conference (NC), tweeted.

Mr Abdullah was reacting to the Centre asserting in Apex Court today that the Rohingya Muslims are ‘illegal’ immigrants in India and their stay posed ‘serious national security ramifications’. (AGENCIES)
