The couple was happy to make a new beginning from Kashmir, the most sought-after honeymoon destination in the country, but the luck had something else in store as militants targeted him inside his office today.
“We are in shock. He never faced any problem here in the past three years,” said one of his colleagues. In February 2019, Kumar was first posted in Kashmir at Pahloo, Kulgam. Last week, he was posted at Areh Mohanpora branch of the bank. Earlier, he was posted for a brief period of 10 days at Vailoo Kokarnag, Anantnag.
Kumar is survived by his wife, father Om Prakash Jat, a schoolteacher, mother Rameti Devi (homemaker) and a younger brother (student).
Reports said a group—Kashmir Freedom Fighters— claimed the responsibility for the killing.
