Srinagar: PDP President Mehbooba Mufti on Friday asked that why is Government of India is so ‘uncomfortable’ with the Jamaat-e-Islami.
The former Chief Minister while reacting over the ban imposed over the organization, adding that while Hindu groups are given ‘carte blanche to spread misinformation & vitiate the atmosphere. But an organization that has worked tirelessly for Kashmiris is banned.’
Why is GoI so uncomfortable with Jamaat e Islami? Radicalised Hindu groups representing fringe elements are given carte blanche to spread misinformation & vitiate the atmosphere. But an org that has worked tirelessly for Kashmiris is banned. Is being anti BJP anti national now?
