What's next for Mehbooba Mufti?

India Today  

Among the first things former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mehbooba Mufti did after her release on October 13 was to put out an audio recording on Twitter where she vowed to fight the Centre’s action of abrogating Article 370 which gave J&K special status. What the Delhi darbar snatched from us unconstitutionally and illegally on August 5 last year, we will have to get it back,” said the People’s Democratic Party president, who was jailed along with hundreds of other opposition leaders in Kashmir last year. They saw her very closely during the alliance government, how uncompromising and adamant she can be on core issues,” says PDP spokesperson Najmu Saqib who describes Mehbooba as a ‘street fighter’. The signatories included the NC, PDP, the Congress, People’s Conference, CPI and the Awami National Conference, and the joint announcement said that all political activity hereon would be “subservient to the sacred goal of getting the status of J&K as it existed on August 4, 2019”.
