Congress’ dangerous claws will snatch your rights: Modi
Modi said that women preserve gold, silver, and household items for their children. Congress and SP have noticed this.
Jammu and Kashmir (J-K) Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti on Sunday said while the country was on the path of development, the opposite was happening in her state as she urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi as well as Pakistan to end the “bloodbath” due to ceasefire violations.
Expressing her distress over the spate of deaths in the state, Mehbooba Mufti said Jammu and Kashmir should not be turned into an “arena of war” by India and Pakistan.
“On our borders, there is a bloodbath going on. Country is on path of development, it is what PM talks about, but opposite is happening in our state,” she said at the passing out parade of new Police constables at Subsidiary Training Centre in Baramulla.

“I appeal to PM (Modi) and to Pakistan to not turn J-K into an arena of war,” she added.
The appeal comes a day after Mehbooba Mufti said that people of her state were the “worst victims” of acrimony between India and Pakistan as tensions continue to rise along the India-Pakistan border due to repeated ceasefire violations by Pakistan.
Four people, including three civilians and an Indian Army soldier, were killed and over a dozen others injured on Saturday on the International Border and the Line of Control (LoC).
Earlier, a Border Security Force (BSF) trooper and three civilians were injured in fresh firing by Pakistan Rangers on the IB of the state.
Police sources confirmed that over a dozen others, including civilians and security personnel, have been injured in Saturday’s escalated violence in the border.
More than 10,000 residents of border villages have during the last two days migrated from their villages, leaving behind cattle, agricultural fields and homes.
On Friday, two security personnel, including an army soldier, and two civilians were killed in ceasefire violations by Pakistan on the LoC and the International Border.
Twenty-four others, including two BSF troopers and 22 civilians, were injured in Friday’s shelling and firing by Pakistan troops.
