“Imagine if they can attack and manhandle a candidate who has security, what sense of security will our party workers have,” he said.

“I want to congratulate the district administration for ensuring free and fair elections throughout Lolab, particularly in Diver, where booth capturing had become a norm,” he added.

He also appealed to the district administration for looking into the matter of political workers from different parties being threatened and harassed, “even now after the polling has ended and ensure their safety”. (KNS)
