The People’s Democratic Party leader has been in detention under the Public Safety Act (PSA) since Jammu and Kashmir’s special status under Article 370 was revoked in August last year and the State was bifurcated into the Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir, and Ladakh.
“India’s democracy is damaged when GOI illegally detains political leaders. It’s high time Mehbooba Mufti is released,” Gandhi said to Twitter.
The Jammu andKashmir administration last week extended Mehbooba’s detantion under PSA by another three months. (PTI)
