| Kashmir politicians allege house arrest; false, says LG Sinha | | |
Early Times Report
Srinagar/ Jammu, Dec 11: Mainstream politicians from Kashmir on Monday shared pictures of chains and locks on gates, alleging that they were under house arrest, while J-K Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha denied the claim, a war of words that broke out on a day the Supreme Court upheld the validity of abrogation of Article 370.
Early Monday, the People's Democratic Party (PDP) on X alleged that "even before the Supreme Court judgment is pronounced, police have sealed the doors of the residence of PDP president @MehboobaMufti and put her under illegal house arrest".
Following the statement, Mr Sinha at a press conference in Jammu denied the claim and said "No one has been put under house arrest or arrest in all of Jammu and Kashmir".
"These claims are completely baseless and an attempt to spread rumours," the Lt Governor (LG) said and stressed that he was speaking responsibly and confirming that no one had been subjected to house arrest or arrest for political reasons anywhere in the Union Territory. |
