Jo haath 35A ke saath chhedd chaadd karne ke liye uthenge wo haath hi nahi wo saara jism jal ke raakh ho jaega (To play around with 35 A is like playing with fire. Whoever tries to touch 35 A would be annihilated),” said Mufti while addressing the party workers.
The move to deploy additional troops has come immediately after the two-day visit of National Security Advisor Ajit Doval to Srinagar where he was reportedly briefed about the security scenario in the valley.
