SRINAGAR: Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chief Mehbooba Mufti on Friday said the Lok Sabha elections give a chance to the people of Jammu and Kashmir to safeguard the State’s Muslim-majority character and its core interests.
Speaking at a workers convention in Uri in Baramulla Lok Sabha constituency, she cautioned the people about the “sinister motives” of the BJP to fragment people on the basis sects, communities and regions.
“They want to give an impression that only Kashmiri-speaking people of the valley are for special status of the State. The fact remains that every single citizen of the State irrespective of his religion, language and sect holds our special status dearer than life,” Mufti said.
“These nefarious designs are being implemented in the State so that they could deprive us of our special status and unique identity, besides altering State’s Muslim-majority character,” she claimed. (AGENCIES)
