Early Times Report
Srinagar, May 3: Taking a dig at Deputy Chief Minister Kavinder Gupta for his statement that BJP does not support the policy of soft approach towards stone pelters, working president of the main opposition National Conference (NC) Omar Abdullah said amnesty to stone pelters was announced by the Union Home Minister on the advice of interlocutor.
Stone-pelting by miscreants on a school bus in Shopian in south Kashmir on Wednesday in which two minor students were injured evoked condemnation from mainstream and separatists leaders.
Taking to micro-blogging site twitter Omar Abdullah, reacting to Kavinder Gupta's statement on injury to two minor students, said " Some one needs to remind the Deputy CM that the amnesty was announced from Delhi by the Union Home Minister on the advice of the interlocutor".
Cases against about 10000 stone pelters were withdrawn in the Kashmir valley on the directions by Union Home Ministry after centre appointed interlocutor Dineshwar Sharma recommended following his several rounds of interaction with politicians, traders and common people since his appointment in October last year. Jammu and Kashmir police has been organizing counseling of stone pelters and other misguided youths and their parents almost daily in the valley.
Kavinder Guptaon Shopian school bus attack has said that the BJP doesn't support the policy of soft approach towards stone pelters.
Omar in another tweet said school children attacked, tourists attacked, MLA's home petrol bombed. Sadly Kashmir is just a steady series of bad news most of the time these days.
He further said that the amnesty granted to stone-pelters was meant to encourage more reasonable behaviour but some of these goons are determined to use the opportunity given to them to just pelt more stones.
