“After careful deliberation PDP has decided to join the Jantar Mantar protest only if the restoration of Article 370 & release of political prisoners are at the heart of the agenda,” the former Cheif Minister said.
She said participating in a protest confined solely to the demand for statehood would amount to putting the last nail in the coffin of the larger constitutional struggle for Article 370, thereby legitimising the BJP’s August 5, 2019, actions, which she termed illegal.
“Our fight is for constitutional rights not one time symbolic gestures”, the PDP supremo said.
