Expecting quick fix of Kashmir issue through brute force by Amit Shah is ridiculously naive: Mehbooba
Srinagar: Asserting expecting a quick fix through brute force by newly appointed Home Minister Amit Shah is ridiculously naive, former J&K chief minister Mehbooba Mufti on Monday said that Kashmir is a political problem that needs a political redressal by involving all stakeholders, including Pakistan.
Ms Mehbooba, who is the president of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), said since 1947, Kashmir has been looked through the prism of security by successive governments.
“Since 1947, Kashmir’s been looked through the prism of security by successive governments. It’s a political problem that needs a political redressal by involving all stakeholders including Pakistan. Expecting a quick fix through brute force by newly appointed HM is ridiculously naive,” Ms Mehbooba wrote on micro-blogging site twitter.
Mr Shah, president of the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), was appointed as Union Home Affairs Minister by Prime Minister Narendra Modi last week. UNI
