After the recent terrorist attacks in Kashmir earlier this week, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti on Saturday urged the Centre to start a dialogue with Pakistan to stop the bloodshed so as to ensure peace in the Union Territory.

PDP president Mehbooba Mufti had on Saturday too claimed that she was placed under house arrest ahead of her visit to the family of Athar Mushtaq -- one of the three alleged militants killed in an encounter in Parimpora locality here in December last year.

PDP president and former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mehbooba Mufti on Saturday claimed that she was placed under house arrest ahead of her visit to the family of Athar Mushtaq, one of the three alleged militants killed in an encounter in Parimpora locality here in December last year.

Mehbooba Mufti spent nearly Rs 82 lakh in six months from January to June 2018 on the refurbishment of her official residence in Srinagar's Gupkar Road, when she was the Chief Minister of the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir.

The former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister said it is mortifying that the probe agencies are running an "audit" on the mausoleum of her father Mufti Mohammed Sayeed.

The PDP on Monday claimed its three senior leaders were detained on Monday, a day before the counting of votes in the District Development Council (DDC) polls.

Mufti said she wanted to meet with the families evicted from Central Kashmir's Budgam district, but was stopped by the police and security forces deployed outside her residence.

PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti has claimed that the Jammu and Kashmir administration has once again detained her. Mufti said that she was denied permission to Pulwama.

Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor (LG) Manoj Sinha in an exclusive conversation with India TV spoke about the security situation after the armed forces foiled a possible terror plot when four Pakistan-based terrorists were neutralised in a security operation. India TV spoke to Manoj Sinha on various aspects of the political situation in the state and other issues.

BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis on Wednesday criticised the Congress for `becoming part' of the People's Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD) in Jammu and Kashmir.

Targeting the tie-up of the Jammu and Kashmir parties, known as 'Gupkar Alliance', Sambit Patra described it as "unholy", saying that it is aimed at opposing the implementation of laws duly passed by Indian Parliament.

Weeks after resigning from the Mehbooba Mufti's Peoples Democratic Party, all three leaders joined the Congress party on Monday.

PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti said that the Modi government needs to pursue the Vajpayee doctrine. She said that youth in Jammu and Kashmir are feeling disenchanted.

Days after PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti's remarks over the Indian flag and Article 370, three leaders quit the party on Monday.

The BJP workers reached the Lal Chowk in Srinagar to hoist Tricolour. The BJP workers said that they wanted to send a message to the People's Alliance for Gupkar declaration that only the Tricolour will be unfurled in Kashmir.

The BJP on Saturday accused PDP president Mehbooba Mufti of "disrespecting" the Indian flag and asserted that the revocation of Article 370 was done constitutionally and that it will not be restored. 

National Conference's Farooq Abdullah and PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti have been elected as chairman and vice-chairperson of the newly formed Peoples' Alliance of seven mainstream parties of Jammu and Kashmir for the restoration of Article 370.

Talking to reporters in Srinagar, the former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister said that she won't raise any other flag (tricolour) until the state flag was allowed to be hoisted. 

The Enforcement Directorate earlier today questioned Farooq Abdullah in connection with a money-laundering probe in a case related to the alleged embezzlement of Jammu and Kashmir Cricket Association funds.

In August last year, the Centre scrapped Article 370 that granted special status to Jammu and Kashmir and bifurcated it into two Union territories.
