Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti, speaking on the party’s 26th foundation day on Monday (July 28, 2025), said the Centre should shun the path of war and begin talks to resolve the Kashmir issue.
“The recent (India-Pakistan) war (after the Pahalgam attack) achieved nothing but destruction on this side and an unwanted arms race in the region. I don’t know what happened on that side. PDP founder Mufti Muhammad Sayeed always talked about friendship, peace and opposed war. India has to play the role of big brother in the region,” Ms. Mufti said while addressing the party workers at the Sher-i-Kashmir Park.
