In another tweet,the former chief minister said that 11 out of the 12 dead militants were locals and the trend should alarm people in New Delhi.Of the 12 confirmed dead I understand 11 are local Kashmiris & the identity of the 12th is being ascertained, not one so far is a foreign terrorist. Is no one in a position of power in Delhi alarmed by this because I certainly am! https://t.co/axHBpdDbay

Omar, in another tweet said that 13 militants were killed however a ‘high cost had to be paid’.Very Bloody Sunday in Kashmir today. 13 militants killed but not without extracting a high cost – 3 army men killed in the line of duty & 4 protestors killed around the encounter sites.

He also said that Mehbooba should have cut short her Delhi trip.So while all this was unfolding the Chief Minister didn’t see fit to cut short her Delhi trip. What was so important to have kept her there? https://t.co/TpI08NN3v0
