Former J&K Chief Minister and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti on July 5 accused the Lieutenant Governor’s administration of “playing a dangerous game”. The government she fears is attempting to import 10 lakh people into the UT. The cover for this plan is a scheme to provide land to the landless.
“A dangerous game is being played in J&K on the pretext of providing land to the landless. We will not allow it. People of Jammu and Kashmir on the lines of Ladakh will resist such moves to import poverty and slums into J&K,” Ms. Mufti, said while addressing the media in Srinagar.
Ms. Mufti quoted the figures of the 2011 census of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs and sought clarification from the L-G administration.
