Srinagar: PDP Chief Mehbooba Mufti has said that Government of India’s decision to deploy 10,000 troops in the valley has created fear psychosis in people.
In a tweet, the former Chief Minister added that JK is a political problem and cannot be solved by military means.
Centre’s decision to deploy additional 10,000 troops to the valley has created fear psychosis amongst people. There is no dearth of security forces in Kashmir. J&K is a political problem which won’t be solved by military means. GOI needs to rethink & overhaul its policy.
