Srinagar: In Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, an orchard owner in South Kashmir has complained that an unknown person sprayed a toxic substance in his apple orchard overnight, damaging the ready crop and burning the leaves of the trees.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, Ghulam Hassan Sheikh from Brah Ranipora village in Islamabad district said the attack caused extensive damage to his orchard just ahead of harvest.<\/p>\n
In a video statement shared on social media, Sheikh said losses worth lakhs of rupees and appealed to the authorities for a thorough investigation and strict action against those responsible.<\/p>\n
Local residents said such incidents are the artifact of Indian army and BJP\/RSs elements, as they have been found involved in such activities in the past. The incident has raised fears among orchardists in the area, who are already facing economic distress due to erratic weather and market conditions.<\/p>\n
No arrests have been reported so far. The administration has not issued any official statement on the matter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
