Divisive forces must be identified, dealt with: Mehbooba

SRINAGAR:  PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti on Tuesday said “divisive forces” spreading “communal hate” on social media in the aftermath of Pahalgam attack must be identified and dealt with firmly to maintain peace and harmony.

The former chief minister of the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir said she has received distress calls from Kashmiri students across the country “living in fear due to ongoing unrest”.

“Some institutions have postponed exams and advised students to return home until normalcy is restored while others have decided otherwise,” she said. PTI
