In an interview to Times of India, Ghalib credits his mother for “isolating” him from the pressure of homegrown terror outfits and those from Pakistan to join their ranks.
“We learn from the mistakes of the past. My father could not pursue his medical career (at Sher-e-Kashmir Institute of Medical Sciences). I want to complete it,” said Ghalib.
