PDP President Mehbooba Mufti has launched a scathing criticism against the BJP, pointing to a surge in militant attacks in the Pir Panchal region. Speaking to reporters in Srinagar, Mufti expressed her condemnation of a recent attack in the area. She emphasized that under BJP rule, regions that were once peaceful and free from militancy are now experiencing heightened violence.
Mufti’s remarks underscored her concern over the deteriorating security situation in the Pir Panchal region, questioning why it has become a target for militant activities. She called on the BJP to provide answers regarding the security measures in place and the reasons behind the escalation of violence in previously tranquil areas.
The recent incident that prompted Mufti’s remarks involved the ambush of an Indian Air Force convoy in Shaistar, Poonch district. Tragically, one soldier lost his life, and four others sustained injuries in the attack. Following this incident, security forces launched a massive Cordon and Search Operation (CASO) across various parts of dense forests and adjoining areas.
Mufti’s criticism highlights the ongoing tensions between the PDP and BJP, particularly concerning security and governance issues in Jammu and Kashmir. As the situation in the Pir Panchal region remains tense, Mufti’s demand for accountability and action from the BJP underscores the need for effective measures to address the escalating violence and restore peace in the region.
