Former Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir and Peoples Democratic Party [PDP] President, Mehbooba Mufti on Wednesday said that she was again “detained”, third time in less than a fortnight.
Taking to her Twitter handle, the Peoples Democratic Party president said, “Illegally detained today for the third time in less than a fortnight. Too much democracy indeed, If my movements are curbed due to ‘security concerns’ then why are BJP ministers allowed to campaign freely in Kashmir while I’ve been asked to wait until culmination of DDC elections?”

By “too much democracy”, Mehbooba was apparently referring to NITI AAYOG CEO Amitabh Kant’s purported remarks on Tuesday that “tough” reforms are “very difficult in the Indian context,” as “we are too much of a democracy”.
