Mufti Govt brazenly spying on me, claims former J&K CM Omar Abdullah

Srinagar: Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Friday kicked up a political storm, accusing the PDP-BJP coalition government of “brazenly” spying on him. “Mufti Govt brazenly spying on me. A journalist interviewing me for a national daily just got stopped right outside my gate by CID person,” he tweeted. [caption id=“attachment_2421352” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]  Omar Abdullah.

Seriously guys if you want to know just ask me, I couldn’t care less if you do,” he said. Omar said his successor, Mufti Mohammad Sayeed, can pick up the telephone and ask him instead of “accosting” people outside his residence. “Dear Mufti Sb, if you and your apparatchiks want to know what I’m up to pick up the phone and ask me. Please don’t accost people outside my gate!” he wrote. PTI
