Chandigarh, Dec 26 (Only Kashmir): A magazine published from Punjab state of India has featured Kashmir based slain Militant commander Burhan Muzafar Wani as Hero. The magazine on which photo of Burhan is published on cover page was on sale at the ‘Jor Mela’ where the Chief Minister of Punjab visited.
Featuring slain militant Burhan Wani of the Hizbul Mujahideen on its cover was on sale at the ‘Jor Mela’ here following which Punjab Chief Minister Amarinder Singh said the police would look into the matter if there was any anti-national activity.
On a visit here, the chief minister was confronted by media about sale of the magazine.
If there is any anti-national activity, police will look into it, Singh said.
An article on global terror group, the Islamic State or ISIS and a picture of Jagtar Singh Hawara, convicted in chief minister Beant Singh assassination case, also featured in the 42-page magazine.
The ‘JorMela’, which began on December 25 and ends on December 27, is held every year to commemorate the martyrdom of Sahibzada Baba Zorawar Singh and Sahibzada Baba Fateh Singh, the young sons of the 10th Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh.
Pertinently, Burhan Wani who was killed along with his two companions in South Kashmir on 8th July 2016 triggered the uprising in Kashmir valley during which hundreds of people got killed and thousands were maimed after government forces used pellet fires to combat the protestors.
According to Onlykashmir.in monitoring desk, in 2016, the then Prime Minister of Pakistan Nawaz Sharief also termed the Burhan Wani as hero during his speech at United Nations General Council. (OK)
