MLA Langate Engineer Rashid addressing press conference in Srinagar

MLA Langate, Sheikh Abdul Rashid on Sunday apologized to the people of Kashmir for not being able to save Afzal Guru and said he would move a resolution in the coming session of the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly for handing over of the mortal remains of Guru to his family.

While demanding the name of Srinagar’s Lal Chowk should be changed to Afzal Guru Chowk, he said, “I will bring a resolution in the coming session of the Assembly for handing over of the mortal remains of Afzal Guru to his family.”

Pertinently, earlier Rashid had brought a resolution in the Assembly seeking clemency for Guru. “My resolution was sabotaged and I failed,”

The MLA asked mainstream political parties to support his resolutions in the Assembly. “I have called for a meeting of all mainstream parties tomorrow at my residence to chalk out a joint strategy in this regard,” he said.

Rashid said if the Centre did not hand over the Guru’s remains, he would resign from the Assembly. “I am in touch with the PDP and other parties and if the mortal remains are not returned, then let us all resign,” the MLA said.
