Tapping Omar's Phone is Breach of National Security says, National Conference

"I will not be able to comment if the DIG reported the matter to Omar...If what is reported is correct...Then it is a breach of national security," he said.

"A thorough probe is needed...Outside the domain of army, MHA and the state government,", he said adding this was the reason the NC was pressing for a judicial probe.

"Jammu and Kashmir is a sensitive state and mere denial by Gen Singh is not enough...NC has demanded a probe by a sitting Supreme Court judge and bring truth to the fore," Rana said.

"It is important to know the truth because the issue has shaken the confidence of people in the state," he said.
