Pertinently, earlier this month Haseeb Drabu, was sacked from Jammu and Kashmir state cabinet, after his remark that Kashmir is “not a political issue” triggered a huge controversy.
Earlier, speaking to reporters near the site of the gunfight, SSP Rajouri Yougal Manhas said that at least two militants have been surrounded by the forces. “The information is preliminary in nature,” he said.
Tahir Muzter was a well-known journalist of Jammu-Kashmir, who also penned poetry. He edited “Aahang”, Salsabeel and Political Times apart from daily Chinar and Nawa-e-Subh.
The irony is not limited to holding of the Executive post in a profitable company, the Drabu has not even mentioned the company (a source of income) in his nomination form/affidavit.
