He has left behind a huge wealth of spiritual teachings, which will continue to inspire and strengthen coming generations, particularly the Gujjjar community, to realize their full potential. During his lifetime, Baba Ji carried forward the valuable heirloom of traditions, which were handed over to him from generation after generation. On his demise, I pay my earnest tributes to his departed soul and pray to almighty Allah to grant him highest echelons in Jannat and much needed patience to the bereaved family members, particularly Mian Altaf Sahib and millions of his followers and devotees of his to bear the irreparable loss,” he said. 

While expressing grief over the passing away of Baba Ji, Omar said the guiding light has gone out of our lives. He said that Baba Ji’s struggle and efforts to bring the deprived and marginalized sections of society into the mainstream will continue to remain unparalleled. A man of sound knowledge, lofty integrity and unparalleled dynamism, he was deeply concerned about the socio-political and economic emancipation of our Gujjar brethren. His contribution towards the upliftment of marginalized, and underprivileged sections of our society particularly Gujjars will inspire many in the future as well. Baba Ji had made peace building his lifelong mission; his efforts towards strengthening the bonds of amity, and brotherhood among different sections of society in J&K will be remembered for all the times to come. I pay homage to this great son of the soil and pray to almighty Allah to grant his departed soul eternal peace in the highest realms of Jannat. I share in the grief of Mian Altaf Sahib and the entire bereaved family and millions of Baba Ji’s admirers, and followers at this difficult time,” he said.
