After Congress leader Saifuddin Soz said he would have kept Hizbul Mujahideen terrorist Burhan Wani alive if he was in power, the state home minister Hansraj Ahir on Friday said that anyone who instigates terror would be killed.
Ahir told ANI, "The government is striving hard to restore peace in Jammu and Kashmir. Anyone who disrupts the peace and instigates terror would be killed. The security officials have full right to kill them."
The Congress leader on Friday said spoke against the killing of Burhan Wani.
"If it was in my power I would have not let Burhan Wani die. I wanted to hold a dialogue with him. I would have made him understand that a bridge of friendship between Pakistan, Kashmir and India can be built and he could also be useful in that. But now he has died. We should understand the pain of Kashmiris," Saifuddin Soz said.
