Srinagar: Former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Omar Abdullah Sunday said that attacking and terrorising people of Kashmiri origin outside J&K will lead to their further alienation of the people of the state from India.
In a series of tweets, Omar also called for the safety of Kashmiris living or studying outside the state.
Our enemies & those who back terrorism in J&K have been trying to drive this wedge so please please let’s not do their job for them. Kashmir isn’t just a piece of land it’s the people that inhabit it.

“Our enemies and those who back terrorism in J&K have been trying to drive this wedge so please please let’s not do their job for them. Kashmir isn’t just a piece of land it’s the people that inhabit it.
Young Kashmiri students studying outside J&K should have been feted as examples of people who have stayed away from the politics & conflict in Kashmir, choosing instead to make a future for themselves.

“Those hotheads that make up the mobs doing this damage need to ask themselves (if they have the mental bandwidth) whose purpose is served by ostracising Kashmiris.
“By attacking them, terrorising them and forcing them to find shelter they are being told there is no place for them outside the valley & no future in the mainland.”
