Srinagar: PDP president Mehbooba Mufti on Monday warned any tampering with J&K’s special status would “undermine and nullify” the state’s accession to the Union, saying the consequences of such a decision would be something the country had not witnessed since 1947. ‘

The former CM expressed hope the Supreme Court will consider the provision is a bridge between the state and country. She also asked the Centre “not to play with fire by tampering” with the Article 35A, saying if it is done “the consequences would be such the people who bear the flag of India would perhaps not be able to do so.”
