Srinagar, Aug 03 : PDP President and former Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti Friday said fiddling with the State’s special status would have “catastrophic ramifications” for the entire country.

“Today people cutting across party lines and other affiliations are united in their fight against any dilution of Article 35A. As I have already stated before, fiddling with J-K’s special status will have catastrophic ramifications for the entire country,” Mufti said.

“My father (former chief minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed) took great pride in the special status that J-K enjoys under Article 370. He would often mention that while people of the state have made great sacrifices for larger goals, we need to safeguard what we already have,” the PDP president wrote on Twitter. (KNS)
