Srinagar :Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, Saturday raised concerns over the reported seizure of a signboard in Srinagar’s Lal Chowk, which urged tourists to respect local culture, avoid alcohol and drugs, and maintain cleanliness.
Shopkeepers in Lal Chowk informed Mirwaiz about the removal of the signboard, prompting him to question the rationale behind the action.
“Why was this signboard seized? What exactly is wrong with urging tourists to respect local culture, avoid alcohol and drugs, and keep the city clean? Is promoting moral values and decency now a crime in Kashmir?” Mirwaiz stated. (KNS)“`
