On Sunday, former IAS officer-turned-politician Shah Faesal lashed out on Eid, threatening he wouldn’t celebrate Eid until ‘the last bit of insult is avenged and undone’.
He wrote on Twitter: “There is no Eid. Kashmiris across the world are mourning the illegal annexation of their land. There shall be no Eid till everything that has been stolen and snatched since 1947 is returned back. No Eid till the last bit of insult is avenged and undone.”
For this ex IAS officer and now founder of political party Kashmiris means only Muslims... https://t.co/CoNNxih5cp

Faesal celebrated EID! Never threatened his hero Imran Khan

India extends same constitution to J&K. Inke andar ka Jinnah jaag gaya! https://t.co/ug9mElAeOw
This is good news. No Eid means no mass slaughter of innocent animals. I'm sure you'll never be able to celebrate Eid, as your khayaali biryani is never going to get cooked. https://t.co/WWIRw2eZ0d

Shame on my country to have kept you in a respectable position with an IAS.
Go, place your story below the pillow and sleep. Who cares if you celebrate Eid or not. https://t.co/FTUf227Iba

People like these want bloodshed and violence in Kashmir because that's what keeps them relevant. Peace and normalcy in the valley would completely destroy their careers. https://t.co/3AsmvGlvBJ

1. J&K returning to normalcy
Meanwhile, the Jammu and Kashmir Police said the situation in the state has remained normal after the partial relaxation in the curfew by the administration yesterday and today.
"The situation in the state has remained normal so far. No untoward incident has been reported from anywhere so far," the tweet by the official handle of the J-K Police read.
In districts such as Udhampur, the people thronged the market place during the six hours of relaxation provided to the people for purchases before the Bakr-Eid.
Similarly, in the Poonch district too, heavy rush of the civilians was seen in the markets to stock up on their supplies and to prepare for the festivities of Eid.
The reopening of the markets and the enthusiasm of the public points towards that the curfews might be taken away soon and people will be able to return to their normal lives.
Section 144 was imposed in the backdrop of whittling down of Article 370 and bifurcation of Jammu and Kashmir into two UTs--Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh.
2. Friday prayers
Friday prayers in Srinagar and other regions of Kashmir were conducted peacefully yesterday with locals visiting nearby mosques to offer namaz.
Ahead of announcing the decision to abolish Article 370 from Jammu and Kashmir, the central government had deployed additional military troops to control any possible untoward incident.
The government had also suspended mobile internet in Jammu in view of the security situation in the region which later resumed. (
3. Jitendra slams Cong
Union Minister Jitendra Singh on Sunday hit out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and the party allies stating that the decision to abrogate Article 370 was not taken to please their ears as they are the ones who actually have flourished and thrived in an atmosphere of uncertainty and fear-mongering."It wasn't the decision which would have pleased or be a piece of music to the ears of Rahul Gandhi and his allies, as they are the ones who actually have flourished and thrived in an atmosphere of uncertainty and fear-mongering," said Singh, while speaking to ANI.He targeted the parties who opposed the Centre's move to scrap Article 370, Article 35A, and bifurcating Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh into two Union Territories.This comes a day after Rahul raised concerns over the prevailing situation in the Valley, stating that reports of violence were coming out and people were dying in Jammu and Kashmir.
He had called upon Prime Minister Narendra Modi to transparently tell the country about the situation and assuage people.
"There are reports of violence; there are reports of people dying in Jammu and Kashmir. So we stopped our deliberation on the issue of Congress president. We had a presentation on what was going on in Jammu and Kashmir," Gandhi had said on Saturday night.He had said the Congress was concerned about the reports. "It is very important that the Central government speaks on the situation in the state," he had said.
"Now it is very important that the Government of India and the Prime Minister make it very clear and transparent, exactly what is happening in the union territory of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh."
"We are very concerned about reports that are coming and the government needs to assuage the country and tell the country exactly what is happening and be completely transparent," he had said.
Parliament recently withdrew special status to the Jammu and Kashmir and also passed Jammu and Kashmir (Reorganization) Act 2019, reorganizing the state in two Union Territories -- Jammu and Kashmir with Assembly and Ladakh without it.
