“I doubt why there wasn’t a spurt in gunfights before the government formation. There should be an independent probe to find out who is doing it,” Abdullah said.

“They should be arrested to find out whether there is a task to destabilise the Omar Abdullah-led government. Tourism is thriving and people are doing their routine business. Militancy was at its lowest, that’s why I am demanding a probe,” Abdullah said.

Post government formation in J&K, there has been a spurt in attacks on non-local labourers and on the security forces as well.
