Tourist use to come kashmir before abrogation too, Today a employee is killed inside a government office while he is working, A policeman is killed at his home, Kashmiri Pandits are ready to leave their jobs and leave kashmir, Is this normalcy?" Omar said. Omar added, "Pandit employees leaders got compelled to meet PAGD for justice. "PADG leaders went to Lieutenant Governor for their rights. If it's new term of normalcy then it's ok but we see militancy rising in those areas which were militancy free in our times especially srinagar and parts of north kashmir. He added.

Omar lashed out BJP while saying that we were told that abrogation of article 370 is the base of all violence and unrest in kashmir. "Two-and-half years have passed, where is improvement in the situation? Targeted killings had stopped in the past.  I cannot remember when the circle of targeted killings took place last time. Today, people are not feeling secure in Kashmir." We were told after abrogation of article 370 all violance and unrest will stop, no improvement is there" he said.
