Srinagar, Jan 2: Donning his trademark Sozni skull cap and traditional Kashmiri pheran, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah said the attire keeps him warm in winter.
In response to a question about the attire symbolising his religion, CM Omar quickly responded that the cap keeps his “head warm and hides his receding hairline.”
“When I donned a suit in a function in Delhi, it earned me abuses. When I wore a pagri (turban) at a function in Jammu, there was a problem. I tried to wear a Karakuli cap but it did not suit me. My father wears Karakuli and that’s his trademark,” he said. “This attire represents my culture and importantly keeps me warm.”
