Srinagar, Dec 04, KDC: PDP President and former Chief Minister of erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir, Mehbooba Mufti on Friday said that the planned protests of the farmers have forced the Government of India to bow down its knees.
As per news agency Kashmir Dot Com-(KDC), she said that the Bharatiya Janta Party is afraid of the power of the people which is why after the abrogation of Article 370 an atmosphere of fear and terror was created in Jammu and Kashmir.
She made the remarks in a tweet in response to ongoing protests by farmers on the Delhi borders against agrarian reform laws.
“Farmers protests have brought GOI to its knees.BJP is scared of peoples power & it’s why a reign of repression has been unleashed in J&K since Illegal abrogation of Article 370. Not allowing any peaceful medium for dissent shows their nervousness & failure on all fronts,” she tweeted.
