Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president and former chief minister Mehbooba Mufti Wednesday “amused” over FIR filed against her for apparently flouting Model Code of Conduct (MCC) for protesting and blocking main road at Bijbehara Anantnag against detention of party workers on May 25.
She said PDP is paying price for speaking truth to power.
Taking to micro-blogging site X (formerly Twitter), Mehbooba Mufti said: “Amusing to find an FIR filed against me for apparently flouting MCC. This is the price PDP has paid for speaking truth to power. Our protest was against GOI in cahoots with local administration for detaining hundreds of PDP polling agents & workers in the hours leading upto voting. Still not satisfied the same administration went onto launch Cordon & Search Operations in traditional PDP stronghold areas to terrorise our voters and prevent them from exercising their right to vote. Ulta chor kotwal ko daante”.
