Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti on Monday alleged that suspended Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Nupur Sharma’s statement against Prophet Muhammad was not a coincidence, but it was “well planned”.
She slammed the Centre and said that they wanted to divert people’s attention from the Kashmiri Pandit issue and that Sharma’s comment was to “provoke” Muslims so that the BJP can bulldoze their properties.
While addressing the media, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chief said that India is “no more” known for its democracy.

“Why Nupur Sharma is not being arrested? Nupur Sharma’s statement has tremendously hurt the sentiments of Muslims across the globe and her remarks on Prophet Muhammad were a deliberate act, it was planned. Nupur Sharma’s remarks were on well-settled grounds so that the Muslims in the country get provoked and the government get a chance to act on them,” Mufti said.
She added that this country is going towards disaster and that “we have lost our identity as the largest democracy”.
“We are no longer known for democracy but are known for bulldozer,” she said while taking a dig at the Yogi Adityanath-led Uttar Pradesh government.
