“More than security agencies,It is Kashmiris who make the yatra a success,” Rashid said.
He said that such orders only exposes “New Delhi’s colonial mindset and hatred towards Kashmiris.’
They demanded immediate revocation of the ban.
The authorities had said restrictions were put on the civilian traffic to allow incident-free passage to vehicles carrying Amarnath yatra pilgrims.
