Mehbooba Mufti Put Under House Arrest Prior to SC Verdict on Article 370

Srinagar, 11th Dec.
 Mehbooba Mufti, the president of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), was put under house arrest on Monday. This action was taken ahead of the Supreme Court’s verdict on a series of petitions that question the revocation of Article 370 of the Constitution. Article 370 granted a special status to the region of Jammu and Kashmir.

The PDP has confirmed this development.

“Even before the Supreme Court judgement is pronounced, police have sealed the doors of the residence of PDP president @MehboobaMufti and put her under illegal house arrest,” the party said in a post on X.

Meanwhile, police did not allow journalists to gather near National Conference (NC) president Farooq Abdullah and vice-president Omar Abdullah’s residence at Gupkar here, officials said.
