Meanwhile, PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti slammed the BJP at the Cenrre over the killing of the Kashmiri Pandit in Pulwama district.
Ms Mufti said, "BJP has failed in protecting the lives of our minorities."
"BJP has failed in protecting the lives of minorities here. They only use minorities to project an illusion of normalcy in the Valley," Mehbooba Mufti tweeted on Sunday.
She also added that the BJP uses such incidents to put a stain on the "image of Muslims in the country".
"BJP use these types of incidents to degrade the image of Muslims in the country. I condemn this act. This is not the behaviour of the Kashmiri people. All these acts show the failure of the government," the PDP chief said.
