Omar Abdullah Seeks Apology from Mehbooba Mufti Over Remarks on Kashmir ForcePreviousNext

Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah has called on PDP president Mehbooba Mufti to apologise for her remarks at a Delhi protest, where she opposed police action against students but described the past use of pellet guns in Kashmir as understandable due to militancy. Abdullah and his National Conference party criticized Mufti for appearing to justify force against Kashmiris, while the PDP accused rivals of distorting her statement using artificial intelligence. The debate highlights differing views on security measures in Kashmir.
