Police had submitted an ‘adverse report’ against the father in 2019 for being a militant in the 1990s
An alleged suicide by the son of a government school teacher in south Kashmir’s Kulgam, whose salary was stopped after the police submitted an “adverse report” against him in 2019 for being a militant in 1990s, on Sunday evoked sharp reactions from political parties, wherein they demanded action against the officials. A video in which the victim, aged 24, purportedly explained the reason behind taking the extreme step, went viral in the past 24 hours. “I sacrifice my life for all the teachers who have not been paid for the last two years. I can’t tell you how much trouble I have had to this day, which is why I was forced to take this step today,” the victim is heard saying in the video.
