During a recent gathering in Anantnag, Mehbooba Mufti (former Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir) reflected on her tenure, admitting she was cautious in applying the Public Safety Act (PSA) despite severe unrest. She criticized the current National Conference (NC) government led by Omar Abdullah for failing to support the youth and passing legislation favoring wealthy hoteliers while neglecting the needs of the poor. Mufti highlighted the detrimental effects of FIRs on young people's lives, stating that such legal actions can ruin their futures by restricting job opportunities and travel. She urged her party, the People's Democratic Party (PDP), to unite and prepare for future elections, emphasizing the need to communicate the differences between the PDP and NC. Drawing inspiration from Iran's resilience, Mufti expressed hope for a resurgence of the PDP following sacrifices made by its members since the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019.
