Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Wednesday accused the Centre of being oblivious to the ongoing unrest in the Valley.

"Two more protestors killed last night. The CM (Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti) still wants to behave as though it's business as usual but why is the centre oblivious?" the National Conference leader wrote on Twitter.

One person was killed and another critically injured when personal security guard of a government official opened fire on protesters who tried to set ablaze his official vehicle at Lethpora in Pulwama district on Tuesday night.
