The chief patron of the party led by Mehbooba Mufti, who is still under house arrest, talks about the scrapping of Article 370, New Delhi downgrading J&K to a Union Territory from a state and politics in Kashmir. In an exclusive interview with The Wire about the scrapping of Article 370, New Delhi downgrading J&K to a Union Territory from a state and politics in Kashmir, Baig said, “Scrapping Article 370 and J&K’s special status was already in BJP’s election agenda but downgrading of J&K to Union Territory was not. When Mehbooba made that statement, I was surprised… PDP suffered immensely due to this.”
