Actress Pooja Bedi shares her ‘childhood buddy’ Omar Abdullah’s throwback picture
Srinagar: As former J&K Chief Minister Omar Abdullah spent his 50th birthday in detention yesterday, tweets in his name from noted personalities made rounds on social media.
In one such tweet, Bollywood Actress Pooja Bedi Tuesday shared a throwback photo of her with Omar and tweeted: “Happy 50th birthday to my childhood buddy@OmarAbdullah. Cant believe he is spending this momentous day under lock up with baseless/ absurd charges & a deferred court hearing! It’s tyrannical to shove 3 past CM’s into lock up & not allow them to speak or defend themselves.”

Happy 50th birthday to my childhood buddy @OmarAbdullah
Cant believe he is spending this momentous day under lock up with baseless/ absurd charges & a deferred court hearing!
It’s tyrannical to shove 3 past CM’s into lock up & not allow them to speak or defend themselves.
The photo apparently must have been clicked decades ago when Omar was a teenager, considering his boyish and young looks. Pooja is of the same age as Omar’s.

Omar Abdullah is not in a lock up…

Are all of you purposely burying your head in the sand? He is LOCKED UP. No phone. No right to meet friends. No right to press. No right to free speech. Even the bloody terrorist kasab had a voice from jail.
These 3 ex CMs have been gagged and locked away.
Omar has been put under detention since August 5, when government of India abrogated Article 370 and divided J&K into two union territories.

Hes not in public lock up… but hes definitely in lock up! No rights. No speech. No friends. No phone. What do call that? Disneyland?
His father Farooq Abdullah, and another ex CM Mehbooba Mufti, too are among those detained by the authorities. (Agencies)
