NC’s fight in Anantnag is not against BJP since Mehbooba’s party no longer a friend: Omar
Omar was ostensibly referring to Mehbooba Mufti who has filed her nomination for the seat as PDP candidate against NC’s Gujjar spiritual leader Mian Altaf.
Omar was ostensibly referring to Mehbooba Mufti who has filed her nomination for the seat as PDP candidate against NC’s Gujjar spiritual leader Mian Altaf.
Mehbooba was taking part in a roadshow in south Kashmir’s Pahalgam area during her election campaign.
She said the PDP became the “biggest target” after the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019 and its leaders were either “lured or blackmailed” to break away from it
The NC had unilaterally announced that it would field its candidates on all the three seats and fielded Mian Altaf from Anantnag. The NC had left two seats in Jammu for the Congress as part of the INDIA bloc's seat-sharing agreement.
Mehbooba was responding to Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s statement wherein he said that the dynastic parties that did not let J&K develop should be wiped out in the Lok Sabha elections.
Suhail Bukhari, spokesman of the PDP informed IANS that Mufti on Sunday was planned to go to Chotigam village of Shopian district, where terrorists had killed a local Kashmiri Pandit named Sunil Kumar on August 16.
Calling for declaration of the two regions of J&K – the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir and the Pakistan-occupied Kashmir – as a world peace zone, she suggested that J&K and PoK be declared SAARC cooperation zone.
The outgoing President leaves behind a legacy where the Indian Constitution was trampled upon umpteenth times.
"Ironic that the day India joins G7 to protect free speech, an effective fact-checker like @zoo_bear is arrested on frivolous charges. Criminalising the truth was initiated right after illegal abrogation of Article 370 in J&K & the same model is now being enforced all over India," she tweeted.
Addressing media persons in Srinagar, the PDP leader said there was no greater example of political corruption in the history of the country than the way the BJP indulged in horse-trading in MP, Rajasthan, Goa, and Maharashtra.
