Mehbooba Mufti had a narrow escape as her car collided with a civilian vehicle in Anantnag district. Mufti, on her way to Khanabal to meet fire victims, did not suffer injuries. A police officer in her security team sustained minor injuries. Mufti s car was badly damaged, but she continued her visit in another vehicle. Omar Abdullah called for an inquiry into the accident to address any security gaps.
Mehbooba Mufti made the remark apparently in reference to the dropping of ‘Sher’, a popular moniker of Sheikh Abdullah, from the Kashmir International Convention Centre. Recently, the government “silently” dropped the title ‘Sher’ from Sher-i-Kashmir International Conference Centre (SKICC) in government’s official press releases eliciting harsh reactions from NC leader Omar Abdullah.
