Omar Abdullah Condemns Decades of Bloodshed in Kashmir, Questions Centre’s Failure to Stop Terrorist Attacks in Jammu Kashmir Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Wednesday emphatically stated that the region has endured enough bloodshed over the past 30 years and expressed a heartfelt desire for an end to the violence. Speaking to reporters ahead of his visit to the residence of Crime Branch photographer Arshid Ahmad, who was killed in the recent Naugam blast, Abdullah criticized the central government’s assurances post-2019 that such turmoil would cease, lamenting that the situation has not improved. “Why has it not happened? Those responsible for security should answer. We don’t have control over security,” he said, underscoring the persistent insecurity in the region. He further noted the cyclical nature of violence, saying, “If it is not exploding in Delhi, then it explodes in Kashmir.” In a deeply emotional visit to the village of Chansar in Kulgam district, the Chief Minister offered condolences to the family of Arshid Ahmad, who lost his life while on duty at the Nowgam Police Station in an accidental blast. Omar Abdullah expressed profound grief on behalf of the government, calling Arshid’s sacrifice noble and promising steadfast support to the bereaved family. “Arshid Ahmad’s commitment to duty will always be remembered. The entire government stands with you in this hour of grief,” Abdullah said. He directed local authorities to ensure that the martyr’s family receives all possible assistance and government benefits without difficulty, emphasizing the state’s responsibility toward families of martyred personnel.
