“Killing of Kashmiri Pandit Bank Security Guard (at Pulwama) is very unfortunate. Such acts create a sense of insecurity among people. Administration along with the security agencies are working on a 360 degree approach to eliminate militancy,” the LG told reporters on the side-lines of a function at SKICC here, in reply to a query. He said that security agencies are working on leads and the killers of Kashmiri Pandit Sanjay Sharma won’t go scot free.

While talking to reporters at Achan, PDP President Mehbooba Mufti while targeting BJP said that if they claim militancy has ended then they must answer who has killed Sanjay Sharma.
On the killing of Sanjay, she said: “we all feel ashamed as Kashmiri Muslims are those who in 1947 have staked their lives for the safety of people of other religions.”
People here this time are caught themselves as one side on name of wiping out militancy- hundreds of people have been languishing in jails , properties are being sealed, ED and NIA raids on name of terror funding and even four houses were attached today, she said, adding that if militancy has been wiped out then who has killed Sanjay.

He said killing of Sharma isn’t any act of bravery but it is big sin what his killers have committed.
He said that the gun isn’t seeing whether it is BJP or any other, Hindu or Muslim but it is killing human whosoever and political parties must get together to fight militancy.
He praised local Muslim community for remaining shoulder to shoulder with Sanjay’s family and taking part in his last rites
He assured the family of all possible help they need in this tragic hour.
