Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister and PDP President Mehbooba Mufti Sunday said that she has been placed under house arrest and barred from visiting the slain Pandit’s house in South Kashmir’s Shopian.
Mehbooba Mufti posted some photographs on social media showing her gate is locked and a CRPF armored vehicle has been deployed outside her house at Gupkar Srinagar.
“GOI wants to push the plight of Kashmiri pandits under the rug because it’s their callous policies that’ve led to unfortunate targeted killings of those who chose not to flee. Projecting us mainstream as their enemy is why Ive (I have) been placed under house arrest today,” Mehbooba Mufti tweeted.

She added that her attempts to visit Suneil Kumar’s family at Chotigam today were scuttled by the administration.
“The same administration claims that locking us up is for our own security while they themselves visit every nook & corner of the Valley,” Mehbooba said.
