Mehbooba re-elected as PDP president for three years | India News – Times of India


SRINAGAR: Former chief minister and PDP leader Mehbooba Mufti was on Monday re-elected as the party president for another three-year term by senior party leaders here.
Mehbooba has headed PDP since 2016, after succeeding her father Mufti Muhammad Sayeed, who passed away in January 2016.
A PDP spokesman said Mehbooba was unanimously re-elected as party president for a period of three years, adding that her name was proposed by senior party members including Ghulam Nabi Lone Hanjura and Khurshid Aalam.
The three-year term of Mehbooba as party president ended on October 31 last year, but fresh elections were not held due to the Covid–19 pandemic.
After the election, Mehbooba took on IGP of Kashmir, Vijay Kumar, saying that he should focus on his duty. She was reacting to a question about the IG’s remark that politicians are inciting people to violence in J&K .
Vijay Kumar blamed local politicians, without naming any one, for instigating people by spreading rumours, at a media conference last week. He said police won’t hesitate in preparing a dossier and, if necessary, action would be taken against such politicians.
