Amit Shah, the union Home Minister on a three days visit to Jammu Kashmir on Saturday visited the residence of slain CID inspector Parvez Ahmed in Nowgam Srinagar to offer condolences with his family.
Parvez was killed by suspected militants in June 2021.
The Union Home Minister Amit Shah will spend three days in Jammu Kashmir.
His Kashmir visit comes as part of the Narendra Modi government’s outreach programme under which Union ministers are travelling to the region.
This is Amit Shah’s first visit to the Kashmir Valley since August 2019 when he brought a resolution to cease operation of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir, and a reorganisation bill that bifurcated the erstwhile state into two Union Territories — Ladakh being the other.
As the Union home minister, this is Amit Shah’s second visit to the Kashmir Valley. He had visited the Valley in June 2019 — barely 40 days before he moved papers in Parliament for a fresh political churning in Kashmir.
