Srinagar: People\u2019s Democratic Party (PDP) President Mehbooba has launched a scathing attack on Lt. Governor Manoj Sinha\u2019s administration in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir, saying that the situation in the territory, especially in the Valley, has worsened since the abrogation of Article 370 on August 5, 2019.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, Mehbooba Mufti addressing an event in Srinagar said, \u201cAugust 5 marks six years of devastation in Jammu and Kashmir. People had hopes from the Omar Abdullah\u2019s government, but unfortunately, nothing has changed on the ground. The same arrests, same harassment and the same atmosphere of fear continue\u201d .<\/p>\n
She expressed deep concern over the plight of Kashmiri youth, stating that thousands have been jailed across various prisons in India. \u201cWe have been trying through an Indian Supreme Court lawyer to find out the exact number of Kashmiri youths imprisoned inside and outside J&K, but no information is being shared with us,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Targeting the administration, Mehbooba said the authorities seem more focused on transfers of Patwaris and BDOs rather than addressing the pressing issues of the territory. \u201cInstead of resolving basic issues like environmental protection and restoring local resources, they are busy elsewhere,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is a sense of suffocation among the people of Kashmir.\u201d Mehbooba said.<\/p>\n
Mehbooba Mufti backed revival of sporting ties between India and Pakistan.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere should be sporting events between India and Pakistan. If you want to live in peace and do not want to spend money on the war, want to overcome unemployment and poverty, and then you have to normalise the situation, and sports are the best thing in achieving this goal,\u201d she advised India and Pakistan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
