Jammu, Sept 11: Different political parties are pressurizing the government to release detained political leaders of J&K, there is no time frame to release Mehbooba Mufti, Omar Abdullah or Farooq Abdullah who have been detained on late August 4 evening- a day before Centre abrogated Article 370 and bifurcate J&K into two Union Territories (UTs)
Credible sources informed that Mehbooba Mufti and Omar Abdullah are safe and healthy and that they have been detained to prevent any provocation. Sources further revealed that that there was no timeline set as to when will they be released. "As long as the government will not be sure that situation is normal in the Valley, leaders will not be released. While Omar Abdullah has been reportedly kept in Hari Niwas Palace, Mehbooba Mufti is at the Chashme Shahi in Srinagar", sources said.
Omar Abdullah and PDP leader Mehbooba Mufti was put into detention by the administration on the evening of August 4. On August 5, Centre had abrogated Article 370 and bifurcated the state.
An Opposition delegation made unsuccessful attempts to visit Srinagar on August 24. The delegation led by Congress' Rahul Gandhi was however not allowed to enter J&K and made to return to the national capital from Srinagar airport. The delegation comprised of Ghulam Nabi Azad, Anand Sharma, as well as other leaders of Opposition - CPI's D Raja, CPI(M)'s Sitaram Yechury, RJD's Manoj Jha and others. The Jammu and Kashmir government had issued a statement ahead of the visit asking political leaders not to visit the Valley as it would disturb the gradual restoration of peace and normal life. It had also said that the visit by politicians would be in violation of restrictions that have been imposed in many areas of the Valley. The statement from the Jammu and Kashmir administration said at a time when the government is trying to protect the people of the state from the threat of cross-border terrorism and attacks by militants and separatists and gradually trying to restore public order by controlling miscreants and mischief-mongers, attempts should not be made by senior political leaders to disturb the gradual restoration of normal life. |
