Mehbooba Mufti condemns the killing and urges people to break vortex of violence in Kashmir

Date:

Following the news of the killing of four policemen in an IED blast in Sopore, Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mehbooba Mufti on Saturday condemns the terrible violence carried out by the militants. She also advocated the people to work shoulder to shoulder to break the “vortex of violence” in the state.

In Srinagar, Mufti said that these young policemen who lost their lives were on duty to protect the people in the town. It is highly unfortunate to see.

“The vortex of violence in the state needs to be broken and for that, every section of society has to work shoulder to shoulder,” the chief minister said.

On Twitter, Mufti wrote, “Pained to hear that four policemen have been killed in an IED explosion in Sopore. My deepest condolences to their families.”

An improvised explosive device (IED), which was planted by militants, went off on Sopore in north Kashmir killing four policemen who were on patrol duty. IEDs were planted near a shop in a lane between the “Chotta Bazaar” and “Bada Bazaar” in Sopore in Baramulla district. Militants detonated the planted IEDs when policemen reached the scene, said an official.

While Omar Abdullah, former chief minister, tweeted, “Very sad news from #Sopore. May the four brave J&K police personnel killed in the line of duty today rest in peace.”

G.A Mir, J&K Congress chief, condemned the killing and said the incident had uncovered the tall claims of the Mehbooba government regarding the Kashmir situation being normal. The central and J&K governments were engaged in concealing the truth, he alleged.
