Srinagar, Aug 8 (JKNS): Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Friday rejected allegations linking him to the recent ban on books in Jammu and Kashmir, asserting that the decision was taken solely by the Lieutenant Governor’s administration. Responding to criticism on social media, Omar, in a post on platform X, wrote as per JKNS: “Get your facts right before you call me a coward you ignoramus. The ban has been imposed by the LG using the only department he officially controls the Home Department. I’ve never banned books and I never would.” The clarification comes amid growing public reaction over recent government action involving raids on bookstores and seizure of literature reportedly flagged for promoting “anti-national” narratives. The ban have triggered a heated debate among scholars, activists, and political observers. (JKNS)
