Former chief minister Mehbooba Mufti, on Friday, condemned the arrest of three prominent religious figures of Jammu Kashmir.
In a tweet she said, “If normalcy as claimed by GOI has indeed returned to JK with zero incidents of stone pelting & other activities considered anti-national, why are they booking religious scholars under draconian laws like PSA? Out rightly condemn such actions that reflect BJPs communal mindset.”
Meanwhile, MLA Devsar Mohammad Amin Bhat also condemned the arrest of three prominent religious figures of Jammu Kashmir.
In a statement, Bhat said, “I condemn the arrest of Three well known Religious personalities of Kashmir. In a democratic country, it is unjustifiable that such rigorous laws are used as tools against religious scholars.”
Bhat requested the LG administration to revisit the decision of arresting the religious figures and urged the authorities to release them immediately.
Mohammad Amin Bhaat termed the arrest discriminatory and demanded that government takes fair action in the matter and release them immediately.
