KEA Co-chairman Farooq Ahmed Dar
expressed serious concern over the incidents of braid chopping and urged locals, mohalla and masjid committees to keep vigil on miscreants involved in these immoral activities and expose them in public.
Dar termed it a part of “deep rooted conspiracy”.
“The mass hysteria has gripped the whole state and it’s really frustrating as to how government is not able to identify and arrest those responsible for the mayhem. They have men and machinery at their disposal but unfortunately government is still clueless,” he said and added that honor of daughters and mothers is supreme to us and that there should not be any compromise with it.
