Renowned Christian activist and politician J. Salik arrived in the city on Sunday to express solidarity with the victims of the Badami Bagh attack. According to details, he spent time with the Christian community at Joseph Town and regretted the mob attack on their homes, shops and churches. Salik further said that the administration could have taken preventive steps to ensure the tragedy did not occur since they had had previous intimation about tensions in Badami Bagh. Accusing the government of negligence, Salik demanded justice for the victims, adding that they should be provided compensation at the earliest.
