Not too long ago when you presided over an all party meeting in Delhi you expressed your intention to remove “dill ke doori “between Delhi and J&K.”
Mehbooba added that in her capacity as the PDP President she suggested a few Confidence Building Measures that would have provided a sense of relief and breathing space to the people of the territory.
