MBA graduate joins Hizbul; Army ready to help if he shuns violence The picture of 29-year-old Haroon Abbas Wani with an AK-47 rifle is doing the rounds on the social media. The Indian Army has vowed to extend all assistance if he shuns the path of violence. Haroon Abbas Wani, the resident of Ghat area of Doda district, holds Master of Business Administration degree from Shri Mata Vaishno Devi University, Katra. "The biggest jihad is to serve elderly parents. There is no need for jihad as we are happy," his aunt said in a video message. She added that his decision to join Hizbul has left his family ashamed. "Your mother and father have fallen sick and they need you very badly. Please return." Major General Rajiv Nanda, the General Officer Commanding (GOC), Delta Force, said, "Yesterday, we came to know about Wani joining a terror group... I hope good sense will prevail upon him and he will return to the mainstream.” He added that if Haroon returns, all possible help will be extended to him. “We can guide him but it's he, who has to choose a path for him." "The youth belongs to an educated family and has put them to a lot of trouble (by his decision). I was moved to see the video of his ailing mother and other family members on social media, who are begging him to return back as his brother's marriage is scheduled on the 9th of this month," the Army officer said. -PTC News
