The “Har Ghar Tiranga” campaign was in full swing in August 2022, both nationally and especially in Jammu and Kashmir. The people actively participated in this initiative.
On one side, people were busy decorating their homes’ roofs with the tricolour flag on August 13.
According to The Chenab Times video report, Mohammad Anwar, a native of Jammu and Kashmir’s Kapran Shahabad Veerinag, is a young man who came to Kishtwar district for study because of his poor financial situation and was forced to accept employment at a man’s home in Kishtwar. But Anwar described the good nature of his master, in whose home he was living in Kishtwar, as they paid his medical expenses until now after this incident.
The tragedy
The tragic incident with Anwar happened on August 13. When the landlord of Muhammad Anwar asked him to bring a pipe so that he can install the tricolour flag at the residence, Anwar held an iron pipe, and while standing the pipe, it came into contact with a power transmission line, due to which Anwar was electrocuted. The landlord of Anwar immediately took him to the District Hospital Kishtwar, from where he was referred to SKIMS Soura in Srinagar. In this tragic incident, Anwar lost his right hand and leg completely.
Unfortunately, as of November 15, there is no FIR regarding this incident, according to Anwar. When a Chenab Times correspondent asked him whether any police officials had met or visited him, he said that no one met him after this incident. On November 14, he went back to Kishtwar to lodge an FIR so that he could get compensation from the concerned authorities because he was now handicapped and could not earn for his family.
Police response
When CT tried to contact Jammu and Kashmir Police officials in Kishtwar, no calls were received. An official saw our WhatsApp message but didn’t respond until the day this report is filed. We contacted Anwar’s lawyer; he said that they had moved to court regarding this, and the court has directed the police to lodge an FIR.
The unanswered questions
The question is whether Anwar will get compensation for living his life or whether he will keep knocking on doors for help. For losing his hand and leg for the tricolour, whether the Jammu and Kashmir government give honour to him and help him or not. These questions will remain unanswered until some practical developments take place.
