Mehbooba Mufti Criticizes Post-2019 Kashmir Policy
Mehbooba Mufti, a former leader in Jammu and Kashmir, spoke to young people in Srinagar.
She said the policies the central government has been using since 2019 are not working.
She was especially upset about a recent explosion in Delhi where a doctor hurt himself and others.
She wants the government to talk to the people of Jammu and Kashmir and find a peaceful solution.
She believes people should live with respect and not be controlled by strict laws.
She plans to have more talks with young people in the area to prevent such incidents in the future.
Mehbooba Mufti criticized the central government's post-2019 Kashmir policy, calling it a failure.
She referenced the recent Delhi blast, where a doctor blew himself up, as a sign of the policy's failure.
Mufti urged the government to begin a process of reconciliation and dialogue with the people of Jammu and Kashmir.
She called for an end to harsh laws like UAPA, PSA, and NIA, which she believes are coercive.
Mufti plans to hold similar youth outreach programs across the Kashmir Valley.
