Messing With Article 35A Like Setting Powder Keg Afire: Mehbooba Mufti | Read
Former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mehbooba Mufti warned the Centre today against the revocation of Article 35A, saying any tinkering with the constitutional provision would be akin to setting a powder keg on fire. Addressing a function in the city to celebrate the Peoples Democratic Party's (PDP) 20th raising day, Ms Mufti asked her party workers to get ready for a big fight for the protection of Article 35A, which gives special rights and privileges to the state's permanent residents.
