Mehbooba Mufti, Omar Abdullah question govt.’s normalcy narrative in Jammu and Kashmir

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti and National Conference (NC) vice-president Omar Abdullah on July 12 questioned the normalcy narrative of the government.

“The latest affidavit submitted by the government to the Supreme Court only vindicated our [PDP] stand that the BJP had no legal grounds to abrogate Article 370. The act was carried out by trampling the Constitution,” Ms. Mufti told the media in Srinagar.

She also questioned the normalcy narrative portrayed in the latest affidavit and accused the Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor’s administration of hosting Chief Justice of India (CJI) D.Y. Chandrachud and around 200 judges recently in Srinagar “to influence their perceptions”.
