Interacting with a large number of mourners at the residence of the Block Youth National Conference President Kalakote Choudhry Ishtiyaq who was shot dead in Kesar Gala Village, Kalakote Assembly Constituency of Rajouri district this afternoon, Rana said that the coalition government is showing worst type of political intolerance by gauging the voice of dissent.

Speaking on this occasion Provincial President Mr Rana reiterated demand of time bound judicial inquiry into the killing of the youth leader by a sitting High Court Judge so that truth must come out as such incidents have very serious ramifications for the political discourse across the state.
