Keeping in mind the current lockdown, Abdullah had urged the people not to gather at his residence or graveyard. He requested people to offer prayers from their homes only.
“My uncle Dr Mohd Ali Mattoo passed away earlier tonight after a brief illness. At this difficult time, the family appeals to everyone to respect the guidelines to not gather either at his residence or the graveyard. Your prayers from your homes will give peace to his soul,” Abdullah tweeted.
Later, Abdullah thanked PM for his condolence by saying, “Your prayers for the departed soul are much appreciated.”
