Srinagar, June 14 (UNI) Hours after J&K Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha, handed over an appointment letter to Syed Adil Hussain’s wife on compassionate grounds, the ruling National Conference said the order was already prepared by the Fisheries department under the elected government.

Adil, was the only Kashmiri among the 26 people killed in the deadly terror attack at Baisaran in Pahalgam on April 22. He was shot while courageously attempting to stop the terrorists from targeting tourists.



LG Sinha, on Saturday, visited the family of Adil Hussain in Anantnag and handed over an appointment letter to his wife, on compassionate grounds.



“We thank LG Sahab for handing over the job order that was already prepared by the Fisheries Dept, a department under the elected government led by Hon Min Javed Dar. This reflects the maturity and responsibility shown by the elected government, we did not allow egos to come in the way, but stood by our commitment to Adil’s family in their moment of grief,” the chief spokesperson of NC and MLA Tanvir Sadiq said in a post on X.



“Just as earlier, the elected government had prepared similar job orders for NoKs (next of kins) in Poonch, which were later distributed by the Home Minister after the CM had personally visited and personally committed these jobs to the families immediately after the shelling. In moments of pain, politics must make way for compassion, and governance must honour its word,” Sadiq said.



The friction between the elected government and the Raj Bhavan recently came out in open when Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Choudhary accused LG Sinha of “running a proxy government” in Jammu and Kashmir.
