Addressing a gathering in Srinagar, as per news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO), Mehbooba said that BJP is at the forefront of spreading propaganda that she brought them in Kashmir.

“The BJP, Jan Sangh and RSS are at the forefront of spreading propaganda that I brought them in Kashmir but you (BJP) know that I have kept your hands tied and didn’t allow you to speak,” said Mehbooba.
