Former J&K CM Mehbooba Mufti Survives Close Shave in Road Mishap In J&K’s Anantnag
Srinagar, 11-01-2024: PDP Chief Mehbooba Mufti had a narrow escape on Thursday when her car met with an accident at Sangam in Jammu and Kashmir’s Anantnag district. The former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister’s vehicle collided with a civilian car while she was on her way to Khanabal to meet the victims of a fire incident. Fortunately, Mufti did not sustain any injuries, but a police officer in her personal security suffered minor injuries. Despite significant damage to her vehicle, Mufti proceeded with her scheduled visit in another car.
A spokesperson from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) confirmed that Mufti was safe and did not suffer any injuries. Iltija Mufti, Mufti’s daughter and media advisor to the PDP president, reassured the public about her mother’s safety, stating, “Ms. Mufti’s car met with a terrible accident en route to Anantnag today. Thanks to the grace of God, she and her security officers escaped unhurt without any serious injuries.”
Thankful to everyone for their prayers & the outpouring of concern about my well being. I am fine alhamdullilah. My driver & PSO have suffered injuries & I hope they recover soon.
