‘Mehbooba accepted invitation to join a meeting of the Gupkar Declaration’ says Omar Abdullah

PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti who was released on Tuesday late night after J&K authorities revoked her PSA detention was detained on the intervening night of 4 and 5 August 2019, hours before New Delhi abolished special status of Jammu and Kashmir under Article 370 and revoked regions decade-old limited autonomy. She was later on slapped with draconian law Public Safety Act (PSA).(KINS)
