Srinagar, Nov 9 (KNS): Kashmiri MBBS students in Bangladesh on Sunday offered Nimaz-e-Janaza for their fellow student Adnan Altaf, whose mortal remains are scheduled to be flown from Dhaka to Kashmir this evening.

Dr Mohammad Momin Khan, President of the All India Medical Students Association (AIMSA), said the mortal remains were initially expected to reach India on November 8, but the process was delayed due to documentation formalities and a holiday on Friday.

He said arrangements for transportation have now been completed through BARLAW Packers and Shippers.

AIMSA acknowledged the efforts of the college administration, particularly Attaul Rajeev, Dr Shah Mohammad Saleem and Tabasum Gazala, along with Kashmiri students at Eastern Medical College, including Saqlain Farooq, Aslam and Shahid, for coordinating the repatriation process.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel
