Srinagar, December 08:
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chief Mehbooba Mufti has been put under house arrest at her Gupkar residence as she wanted to visit hilly areas of Central Kashmir’s Budgam district where Gujjar families are being evicted by the authorities, alleged Iltija Mufti, the daughter of former J&K chief minister on Tuesday.
Ilitija said that the PDP chief intended to visit remote areas of Budgam district where Gujjar families are being evicted. “But a heavy contingent of police and paramilitary forces reached our Gupkar residence and locked the main entry gate,” Iltija said.
Mehbooba ji is a politician, and has a right to go wherever she wishes,” Iltija said, adding that “Mehbooba ji even told police that she will take her private vehicle to reach Budgam, but instead she was not allowed to venture out.”
