PULWAMA: Nazar Jahangir Bhat who lost his father during 20 hours long gun battle with Indian Army August last year has secured 472 marks in the annual matric exam with 94.4 per cent.
Student of a government school, Nazar Bhat, said that he would have secured a higher percentage if his father was alive. I was quite depressed and shocked after losing my father, he said. He was my inspiration and used to take good care of me, despite the fact he was on run for being part of militant outfit Lashkar-e-Toiba.
Indian armys 55 RR claimed it killed two militants Showkat Ahmad Lone of Lelhara and Shaheen Gulzar of Talangama Pulwama last year in August in the paddy fields at Rakh-e-Lojoora in South Kashmirs Pulwama district. Gulzar Ahmed Bhat alias Shaheen is the father of the topper student. Gulzar was a categorized militant and was involved in motivating the youth to join militancy in the recent past, the police said. He was involved in weapon snatching incident at Government Hospital in Pulwama. He played an important role in strengthening the over ground network of LeT outfit in the area.
Mother of the student, Zamrooda Akhtar, said that her son had lost all the hope. He started getting less interested in his studies, he said. The family members supported and motivated him. We were expecting that he will bag the first position, but we know the hardships and pain he went through and have no regrets.
Zamrooda said that her son has made her proud.
Student of Government High School Pathan and a resident of Talangam Pulwama, Nazar Bhat said that he is proud of his slain father. My father was highly educated and religious and it was he who imbibed the universal and Islamic education in me, he said. My success lies in my solid belief in Allah. Just follow the teachings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), recite holy Quarn, offer prayers and work in the right direction and you will hit the bulls eye.
