Unbelievably Cruel and Retrograde Decision: Omar Abdullah on Extension of PSA on Mufti

• J&K's former CM Omar Abdullah said that the extension of PSA on Mehbooba Mufti as "unbelievably cruel and retrograde decision".
• He tweeted, "...nothing she has done or said in any way justifies the way the Indian state has treated her and the others detained."
• While Mehbooba Mufti's daughter Iltija tweeted, "Stifling voices of reason has become the norm for the current dispensation esp post illegal scrapping of Article 370." 
• "Therefore, the extension of my mother's detention doesn't surprise me. Wishful thinking to assume that by smothering any debate on Article 370, the issue will vanish," she said.
• On Tuesday, J&K authorities extended the PSA on former CM Mehbooba Mufti for three more months.
