JAMMU, June 3: Former Chief Minister and National Conference vice president Omar Abdullah and People’s Conference chairman Sajad Ghani Lone today regretted that the Jammu and Kashmir administration is not allowing them to take bullet-proof vehicles for their own as well as their party leaders’ security.
Lone was the first to tweet saying he has converted his private vehicle into bullet-proof at Chandigarh but the administration is not giving clearance (for its use).
“Just saying. M not complaining. So much about security u talk after someone dies. We know how u use security as a tool. I m supposed to be Z plus category. Have brought a private vehicle, Bullet proofed it. Is lying at the factory in Chandigarh. Y because clearance not given,” Lone said in his tweet.
Omar Abdullah, in his tweet, said he fully agreed with Lone.
Tagging Lone’s tweet, Omar wrote: “Agree 100%. We also wanted to order 2 bullet proof vehicles for our senior Kashmir based office bearers who are being denied proper protection out of spite. The permission request is collecting dust on some desk in the administration”.
