Referring to his experience as a member of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), Omar said: "I have been part of the National Democratic Alliance previously. But it keeps pricking my conscious even today that I didn't resign when the Godhra violence (in 2002) took place. I am a Muslim and an Indian, and I feel no difference between the two."
"I am a Kashmiri and we have objected recently in Kashmir for our land. No where in Kashmir, anyone objected to the Amarnath Yatris (pilgrims). They will continue to take up their pilgrimage in future too," Omar added. (ANI)
