| After tricolor remark, Mehbooba belittles Hindi language | | PDP president taunts reporter for asking questions in ‘alien language’ | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Feb 23: After making seditious remarks about tricolour, PDP President Mehbooba Mufti recently stoked yet another controversy about the Hindi language, stating that she finds the Hindi language strange and she should be asked questions in Urdu only.
Soon after she was elected as the PDP President, she came out to speak to the media persons in Srinagar. While she was surrounded by the journalists and was asked questions related to the event, she while wearing maniac green told a reporter that she doesn’t understand Hindi and that questions should be posed to her in Urdu language only. While such a remark was eclipsed by Mehbooba’s statement on the Inspector General of Police and that she and the Police Chief, both are doing their duties, the words used about the Hindi language were derogatory to the core.
“It seems that she issued such a statement intentionally to stir a controversy and even divide people on linguistic manner. It also unravels the inner mindset of the party that has been at the forefront of making seditious statements,” an analyst told Early Times.
It may be recalled that in an interview with an online portal based in New Delhi in January this year, Mehbooba had questioned the motive behind the Balakote air strikes and even termed them a “mere drama enacted by the government.”
Interestingly, in the year 2018, then J&K Governor Satya Pal Malik had stated that when Mehbooba Mufti was the chief minister of J&K the recruitment of militants witnessed a spike and stone pelters too found it easy to attack the security forces.
Mehbooba had once said that she would not have allowed the army to kill militant Burhan Wani had she known prior to the gun battle.
“It was very unfortunate thing that happened. I have said this several times that had I known Burhan Wani was present in that encounter I would not have allowed them to kill him. I knew that he was popular on social media and he was not involved in any encounter and he had not killed anyone. So even as chief minister I had given orders in unified command that local militants should be given a chance to come back,” Mehbooba had said on March 13, 2019. |
