Burhan Wani 'icon' for Kashmir's disaffected: Omar 7/9/2016 11:20:16 PM New Delhi, July 9: A day after alleging that slain Hizbul Mujahedeen commander Burhan Wani had no links to militancy, former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Omar Abdullah on Saturday asserted that Wani had become the new 'icon' for the frustrated and disaffected community in the valley. "Aftr many yrs I hear slogans for "Azadi" resonate from the mosque in my uptown Srinagar locality. Kashmir's disaffected got a new icon y'day. Mark my words - Burhan's ability to recruit in to militancy from the grave will far outstrip anything he could have done on social media," Omar said in a series of tweets.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
