Jammu Terror attack: 'Don't harass the local people...', why did Omar Abdullah say this on interrogation of suspects after terrorist attacks

National Conference Vice President Omar Abdullah did not like the interrogation of people with suspicious images after the terrorist attacks in the Jammu division. Targeting the Jammu and Kashmir administration, he said that if the government wants to end terrorist violence, then it should not harass the local people.

Omar Abdullah has written in a post on his X handle that if the only tool you have is a hammer, then everything looks like a nail. He said that the state administration only knows how to arrest, detain, and harass people. They make the same mistakes again and again and still expect some results.

Do not detain people - Omar

To end terrorism, you have to keep the local people with you instead of angering or isolating them, there is no need to distance them from you. The Vice President of the National Conference has expressed this reaction in a post released by the party on the X handle of the National Conference.

In this post, the National Conference wrote that in the wake of the terrorist attacks in Jammu in the last few days, common people are being harassed, detained, and arrested in the Chenab Valley and Pir Panjal region. This should be stopped immediately. It further says that the National Conference has always stood for peace against extremist forces.
