Members of Parliament from Jammu and Kashmir’s ruling National Conference visited the Iranian Embassy in New Delhi to sign a condolence book for the late Iranian Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. The MPs, including Chowdry Mohammad Ramzan, Sajjad Ahmed Kichloo, and Gurwinder Singh Oberoi, expressed deep sorrow over Khamenei’s tragic death during their visit. They condemned the US-Israeli air strikes on Tehran, calling it a violation of international law and a threat to regional peace.
Peoples Democratic Party Chief Mehbooba Mufti also visited the Iranian Cultural Centre and Embassy in Delhi to offer condolences and pay tribute to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. She raised concerns about Kashmiri students stranded in Iran with the Ambassador. Following Khamenei’s death, protests erupted in Kashmir Valley, particularly in Shia Muslim majority areas, with Sunni Muslims also participating. Chief Minister Omar Abdullah engaged with various Kashmiri civil society members, urging them to express their grief peacefully and maintain order.
