Farooq Abdullah’s grilling, a Political Vendetta, Mehbooba Mufti Tweets

PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti on Monday questioned the timing of the Enforcement Directorate’s action against National Conference leader Farooq Abdullah. Mufti in a tweet termed Farooq’s grilling as a political vendetta. She added that the ‘sudden’ summons to Farooq shows the Centre’s nervousness over the coming together of Jammu and Kashmir’s mainstream political parties for the restoration of special status.

In view of Farooq Sahab being summoned by ED, People’s Alliance issued a statement condemning use of agencies to browbeat mainstream parties in J&K. Despite his age & health issues, he was kept at ED office for five hours. pic.twitter.com/G6oQM1wpxi
