Mehbooba Mufti Calls for Bipartisan Support for Peace Initiatives

Mehbooba Mufti, a key figure in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has called for a cooperative approach from opposition parties in supporting the Modi government's peace efforts. She emphasized that genuine attempts for peace should not be politically criticized.

Mufti brings attention to former leaders, such as Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Manmohan Singh, who successfully engaged in diplomacy without compromising national security. She argues that current efforts deserve bipartisan backing.

Further, Mufti criticizes media outlets for deflecting attention from pressing national issues. She warns that sensationalist news is driving away focus from the real challenges, urging India to remain vigilant against toxic narratives.
