Updated:11 months, 4 weeks ago

Srinagar, July 14, 2025, (ANI): On visiting the Mazar-e-Shuhada on the occasion of Martyrs' Day yesterday, J&K CM Omar Abdullah said, "It is unfortunate that by the orders of those who claim their responsibility is to maintain law and order, we were not allowed to recite the Fatiha yesterday. Everyone was house-arrested since the morning. When I told the control room that I wanted to come here to recite Fatiha, bunkers were installed outside my house within minutes. And they remained there till 12-1 am. Today, I came here without informing anyone. Today, too, they tried to stop us... I want to know under which law I was stopped... They say that this is a free country, but they think that we are their slaves. We are nobody's slaves. We are only the slaves of the people here... We foiled their attempts... They tried to tear our flag. But we came here and recited the Fatiha. They forget that these graves will always remain here. They stopped us on July 13, but for how long can they continue to do so? We will come here whenever we want and remember the martyrs..."
