The State Cabinet which met here today under the chairmanship of Chief Minister, Mehbooba Mufti expressed deep anguish over the loss of precious lives in the Kashmir valley during the prevailing law and order situation. The Cabinet made a fervent appeal to all shades of political opinion to help restore peace and normalcy in the valley.
This was stated by the official spokesperson in a statement.
Cabinet while reviewing the security and law and order situation in the State directed the Police and security agencies to exercise maximum restraint while handling Law and Order situations to prevent loss of human lives, the statement added.
The Cabinet urged the civil society and parents to “counsel the youth to stay away from violent protests which, in spite of maximum restraint, can at times lead to fatal consequences.”
Cabinet also directed the State administration to take “all required measures” to tackle the situation effectively and at the same time ensure that the “general public is not put to any inconvenience” and their grievances are addressed.
