Srinagar, Jan 9 (IANS) Insha Mushtaq, a girl blinded by pellets in the Kashmir Valley in 2016, on Tuesday passed her Class 10 examination — and was immediately lauded by former Chief Minister Omar Abdullah and separatist leader Mirwaiz Umer Farooq.
The result of the exam conducted by the Jammu and Kashmir school board was announced on Tuesday.
