Srinagar: Terming Kashmiri students who cheered for Pakistan Cricket team
in Swami Vivekananda Subharti University in Meerut as ‘misguided’ Chief
Minister Omar Abdullah Wednesday said that by charging with sedition, the career of these students will
get ruined.
According to CNS,
Omar Abdullah in his tweets said that he will talk to Uttar Pradesh Chief
Minister and intervene on behalf of these misguided students to have this
charge of sedition removed.
“Sedition charge
against Kashmiri students is an unacceptably harsh punishment that will ruin
their futures & will further alienate them,” Omar tweeted adding that, “I
believe what the students did was wrong & misguided but they certainly
didn't deserve to have charges of sedition slapped against them.
He further went
on and tweeted that, “finally while what the boys may have done in Meerut is
misguided it certainly isn't illegal, regardless of who them were cheering. The
sad fact is that some of these students are recipients of the PM scholarship
for Kashmiris. Perhaps They need to introspect.”
In his last
tweet, Omar said that,”have just spoken to CM UP who has assured me he will
personally look in to the matter of the Kashmiri students in Meerut.” (CNS)
