New Delhi: Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) supremo Mehbooba Mufti on Sunday said the ban on schools run by the Falah-e-Aam Trust (FAT), an affiliate of banned Jamaat-e-Islami, is “another form of atrocity” inflicted on the people of Jammu and Kashmir to “sabotage” their future. Mehbooba said the last “target” is education after land ownership, resources and jobs.
“Move to ban FAT affiliated schools is another form of atrocity inflicted on people of J&K to sabotage their future. After land ownership, resources & jobs the last target is education. I am sure Kashmiris will overcome this & not let their children suffer,” she tweeted.
