PDP Chief Mehbooba Mufti Slams Demolition Of Journalist’s House In Jammu, Says NC Blocking Bill Led To ‘Brutal Consequences’
"The NC government dismissed the PDP's anti-bulldozer bill by branding these residents as land grabbers. Today, the brutal consequences of that decision are for all to see," she said. An anti-encroachment drive was carried out on Thursday by the Jammu Development Authority during which bulldozers demolished illegal structures in the Transport Nagar area of the city.

Srinagar: Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chief Mehbooba Mufti criticised the demolition of a house of a journalist by the authorities in Jammu, saying the Union territory is suffering the "brutal consequences" of the National Conference (NC) government's decision to dismiss the party's "anti-bulldozer" bill in the assembly recently.
"These aren't the homes of helpless Muslim families in UP or elsewhere where targeting minorities has become the norm. This is Jammu & Kashmir where Arfaz, a journalist who built a modest home 40 years ago on 3 marlas of land, saw it being crushed to rubble in seconds," Mufti said in a post on X on Friday.

The demolished structures included the house of journalist Arfaz Ahmad.
