| Instead of providing jobs, Govt snatching livelihood: Mehbooba | | |
Early Times Report
Srinagar, Oct 22: PDP president Mehbooba Mufti on Friday said the seizure of a large number of bikes by police in Kashmir was a “collective punishment” and a means to “snatch” the livelihood of the youth.
Ahead of Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s likely visit to Kashmir this weekend, many riders have alleged that their two-wheelers were seized by police without even checking the documents and they were asked to collect their vehicles after October 26.
“J&K admin’s recent spree of seizing bikes in Kashmir is a collective punishment & another way to snatch whatever means Kashmiri youth have to earn their livelihood in a dignified manner. Contrary to GOIs claims of providing jobs, they are doing the opposite,” Mufti wrote on Twitter.
Police said the seizing of two wheelers was part of routine anti-terror measures.
“Seizing some bikes and shutting down of internet of some towers is purely related to #terror #violences. It has nothing to do with visit of the Hon’ble HM,” IGP Kashmir zone Vijay Kumar tweeted.
The internet services on a dozen towers — mostly in the areas where non-local labourers were killed in the past week — was snapped three days ago. |
