Srinagar: Former chief minister Omar Abdullah on Thursday said that if voted to power in coming elections he will scrap Public Safety Law.
“Mein iska nam o nishan mitadoonga. Will not leave a trace of this law,” said Abdullah.
Abdullah along with Ali Mohd Sagar, Sakina Itoo, Nasir Aslam Wani and Gh Nabi Ratinpuri was attending a rally in volatile Pulwama district at Mujahid Manzil.
He said that youth will not be arrested under PSA and parents will not be bothered that if their children are booked under this act they will disappear for times inside the jail system.
“Governments are for making lives better not to increase the difficulties by the people,” he said, while promising that once in Power NC will scrap the law that has been misused to imprison young people behind the bars.
Abdullah criticised Mehbooba Mufti over her policies towards people while in power as hundreds of youth took up arms.
“Now when out of power she visits militants families,” he said, adding that there is no family untouched by the happenings since past years.
