Leaders of the People's Alliance in Jammu and Kashmir attacked and ridiculed Union Home Minister Amit Shah over his allegation that they are involved in getting "foreign forces to intervene" into the scrapping of Article 370 and bringing back "terror and turmoil". Both Omar Abdullah and Mehbooba Mufti -- arch-rivals who came together to fight for the restoration of special status -- suggested the minister was upset at the prospect of a contest with the local powers during elections.
