The meeting took place in the national capital.
Speaking to the media just after the meeting,CM Mufti said "Discussed various issues like Indus water treaty, Kashmir issue, alliance with PM Modi". "Discussed the need to create an environment of dialogue in Kashmir".
CM mufti also said that there are two kinds of stone-pelters in Kashmir, one set is angry due to certain issues, whereas; the other set is being misled. We need to work on both the sections.
As per a senior police officer, 300 whatsapp groups were made in Kashmir to gather various stone-pelter groups.
The sources also revealed that PM Modi and his Government is unhappy with Mufti due to the ongoing problem in the state.
Besides her meeting with the Prime Minister, Mufti will also meet Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh . Upon Mufti’s invitation, Prime Minister Modi on Sunday suggested that other states should organise events in Jammu and Kashmir and urged them to reach out to the students from the Valley studying in other states.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi while addressing a meeting of NITI Ayog "seconded the Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister’s suggestion that states should take interest in the students from her state who are studying in other states".
"He urged states to reach out to these students from time to time," the statement said. The meeting on Monday also comes in the backdrop of recent bypoll to Srinagar Lok Sabha constituency which witnessed massive violence and the lowest turnout ever.
Stone pelting incidents have escalated in the region since the BJP-PDP Government came to power in 2015. The issue of Kashmir unrest also featured in the BJP’s core group meeting headed by Prime Minister Modi a couple of days ago.
National Conference president Farooq Abdullah, who won the Srinagar Lok Sabha constituency bypoll on has demanded that Governor’s rule be imposed in Jammu and Kashmir
as the state government had failed to ensure a peaceful election.
Slamming the BJP-PDP Government in the Valley, National Conference’s working president Omar Abdullah has questioned the handling of student protests. Eight people were killed in clashes during the by-election in Anantnag last week.
The violence prompted the Election Commission to postpone voting. Last week, Army Chief General Bipin Rawat apprised National Security Advisor Ajit Doval of the security situation in Kashmir. Rawat’s meeting with Doval on April 16 came a day after he had separate deliberations with Chief MinisterMufti and Governor N.N. Vohra over the law and order situation in Kashmir during his visit to the state. As many as 411 stone-pelting incidents have been reported in the Kashmir Valley from October 2016 to March 2017.
