“We are entangled with severe circumstances from which we were once taken out by Sher-e-Kashmir Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah. We did not have the political and economic privileges. In fact we were not owners of land. We did not have jobs. Unemployment had made the lives of the people miserable but with the efforts of  Sher-e-Kashmir people enjoyed every right. He was the person who set up democracy here, later people were made economically independent by making them owners of land,” Omar said.

“We are being told that after the abrogation of Article 370, Jammu and Kashmir has witnessed immense development but that development cannot be seen on ground. Not only the pathetic road conditions but the prolonged electricity cuts and hike in electricity tariff have made the life of common people miserable,” he added.
