Badge of honour if standing up for my People makes me separatist: Mehbooba to Jaitley
Srinagar, (PTK): Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chief and former J&K chief minister Mehbooba Mufti on Wednesday sharply reacted to Finance Minister Arun Jaitley’s comment that “statements of mainstream parties of Kashmir create a separatist psyche & not acceptable to New India”.
Unacceptable is a new India where those who kill and lynch in the name of religion are feted and garlanded. If standing up for my people makes me a separatist and anti national then its a badge I will wear with honour. https://t.co/7KJAHfrOe5

Congress has shown great courage by endorsing issues PDP incorporated in its agenda of alliance with BJP. Revocation of AFSPA, not fiddling with JK constitutional provisions & holding unconditional dialogue .The roadmap PDP envisages is the only solution for a peaceful J&K pic.twitter.com/HddumNZZZK
