Srinagar, Jun 8 : Expressing concern over highest single-day spike of 620 COVID-19 positive cases on Sunday, former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Omar Abdullah asked what was going wrong when the administration has imposed some of the toughest restrictions in the country.

โ€œ620 new cases in J&K today & only 32 are returning travelers,โ€ the National Conference (NC) Vice president wrote on micro-blogging site twitter.

He further said, โ€œThis is a big spike in local numbers considering the administration has some of the toughest restrictions in the country.โ€

โ€œA small district like Kulgam with a jump of 160 cases is deeply worrisome. What is going wrong?โ€ he asked.

Out of the 620 cases reported yesterday, 37 were from Jammu and 583 from Kashmir valley. So far, a total of about 4100 have tested positive while 43 have died due to the disease in J&K
