Punjab Chief Minister (CM) Amarinder Singh witnessed love pouring for him from a large number of Kashmiris after he came to rescue of a Kashmiri student suffering from cancer who was finding it difficult to avail treatment at PGIMER, reports The Indian Express.

Hailing Singh as the unsung hero of Kashmir, Nasir Khuehami, the spokesperson of the Jammu and Kashmir Students Association (JKSA) expressed gratitude and said, "A saviour is not less than the messiah. I express sincere thanks to Punjab CM Captain Amarinder Ji for his timely intervention and support in the matter of Kashmiri student who is suffering from colon cancer. He is a real hero. We salute your endeavour and your stand is an eye-opener for all those claiming themselves as champions of social activism without action."


It should be noted that on 12 August on the occasion of Eid-ul-Azha, Singh had invited as many as 125 Kashmiri students for a lunch at his house, given the students could not return to their homes back in the Kashmir Valley because of security situation post the abrogation of Article 370.
