Jammu and Kashmir Congress chief Gulam Ahmed Mir today condemned the attack on a school bus by stone-pelters in Shopian district, saying the situation in the Valley is all time worst since 1947".

A class 2 student suffered a head injury when the school bus carrying him was attacked by stone pelters in militant-infested Shopian district of south Kashmir this morning. The bus was carrying close to 35 students.

The situation in Kashmir is all time worst as this government and the Centre was not able to tackle it rightly. Militancy was there for the past three decades but the previous governments managed to deliver, run the schools, carried forward the developmental work, Mir told reporters at the party headquarters here.

He said, "the situation had not been worst in Kashmir post 1947."
Asked about the recent reshuffle in the state cabinet, Mir said, It was not a routine exercise, no matter how much they put a veil on it. Haseeb drabu (former Finance minister) and two BJP ministers (Lal Singh and Chandra Prakash Ganga) were shown the door otherwise there was no possibility of induction of new faces."
