“On the day PDP chose not to meet Delimitation Commission, ED sent a summon to my mother to appear in person for unknown charges. In its attempts to intimidate political opponents,GOI doesn’t even spare senior citizens. Agencies like NIA & ED are now its tools to settle scores,” she tweeted.

This comes as the PDP had earlier while citing its disappointment with the lack of any outcome following the all-party meeting with Prime Minister Modi on June 24 decided not to be a part of the delimitation process in Jammu and Kashmir.

The party has written to Delimitation Commission chief Justice (Retd.) Ranjana Prakash Desai in this regard.
