Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah today said the militant attack on an NC leader's house in Pulwama district was evidence of the risk involved in being in mainstream politics in Kashmir and no one should question the commitment of people associated with it.

"The attack on Yawar's (Masoodi) residence is evidence of the continued risk associated with being a mainstream politician in Kashmir," he wrote on micro-blogging site Twitter. "You may not like our politics sometimes but don't question our commitment because we put our lives on the line every day for our beliefs," Omar added.

He offered condolences to the family of two police personnel, who were killed by the militants in the attack. "My condolences to the families of the police personnel killed in the attack on my party colleague in Pulwama district today," Omar said.
