Divisive discourse alienating Kashmiris: Mehbooba

SRINAGAR: Former chief minister Mehbooba Mufti on Friday expressed concern over the “divisive discourse” taking prominent space in the country, saying it contributed negatively to the situation in the Valley.

“It is unfortunate that the focus is on the things other than development and inclusive politics. The fact is that the youth of Kashmir get discouraged due to such a discourse and it contributes to their alienation and anger,” Mehbooba said.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president was addressing party functionaries of south Kashmir’s Bijbehara and Srinagar’s Zadibal here.

The former chief minister asked the national leadership in the country to address the alienation of the State’s people and listen to the clarion call of the present time. (AGENCIES)
