Srinagar, November 03: The Services team’s last-minute decision to skip Ranji Trophy match here has put a question mark over the Army’s proclaimed successes in the region, according to Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah who today lashed out at the Army for following “double standards” in the state.
In a scathing attack against the Services team, Omar said “Army has made tall claims about its successes in the state against the militant groups. The incident clearly shows the double-standards of the Armed forces operating here.”
It was a bizarre scenario at the Sher-E-Kashmir stadium where Ranji Trophy match was organised after a gap of two decades and all the dignitaries including the Union Minister of state for new and renewable energy Farooq Abdullah were present but the Services team did not turn-up.
