SRINAGAR: Jammu and Kashmir governor Satya Pal Malik said on Sunday that terrorists instead of killing security force personnel should kill the “corrupt who have robbed their state”.His remarks drew swift condemnation from former J&K CM and National Conference leader Omar Abdullah who said on Twitter , “This man, ostensibly a responsible man occupying a constitutional position, tells militants to kill politicians perceived to be corrupt. Perhaps the man should find out about his own reputation in Delhi these days before sanctioning unlawful killings & kangaroo courts.”The governor’s remarks came while addressing local residents at a tourism promotion function in Kargil. “They are killing them unnecessarily. Why are you killing them, bhai,” the governor said.“These youth with guns, they are killing PSOs and SPOs. Why are you killing them? You should kill those who have looted Kashmir. Why are you killing the security forces? Have you killed any of the corrupt who have looted your Kashmir,” the governor said.“They (referring to mainstream politicians) are telling (sic) something else here and something else in Delhi,” the governor said. Malik added that no one could make the government bow before a gun.He said the situation in Kashmir had changed for the better.“These boys (terrorists) have been indoctrinated by these mullahs that they will get jannat (in the) hereafter, but I promise to them give two jannats — one here in Kashmir and another (in the) hereafter,” the governor told the gathering.Read this story in Bengali
