Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti's mother and sister Rubya Sayeed met her on Thursday at Chashmashahi Resort, where she has been kept under detention.

Jammu and Kashmir Governor Satya Pal Malik told Mehbooba Mufti and Omar Abdullah about the possibility of shifting them to their respective residences, sources said.

On joining the BJP from the Mehbooba Mufti's PDP, Haji Anayat Ali, Chairman, J&K legislative council, said on Monday, "In two years, you will see the change.

The government wants to release the mainstream leaders and allow them to reach out to their party workers, but it does not want them to issue any statements or indulge in activities that would aggravate the situation in the Valley. 

Iltija said that her mother Mehbooba was detained, along with scores of other elected representatives, the very same day and it has been over 10 "long agonising days since this crippling curfew was imposed".

It was a quiet, lonely Eid for former Jammu and Kashmir chief ministers Farooq Abdullah, Omar Abdullah and Mehbooba Mufti on Monday, quite unlike previous years when their homes were full of celebratory crowds of supporters, friends and family members, officials said.

The Bengal Chief Minister said the local people of J&K should not be scared due to curfew in Srinagar and other areas. Banerjee also slammed the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation Bill, 2019 for the procedural lapses as it 'is not constitutionally, legally, technically praiseworthy and it is neither democratic'.

People's Democratic Party chief and former Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti and National Conference leader Omar Abdullah have been arrested. Reports suggest that they have been moved to a makeshift jail in a guesthouse.

BJP ally Shiv Sena on Monday demanded former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister and PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti be booked under newly-amended anti-terror law for using "terrorism language" against opponents of Article 35 A, which grants special rights to the permanent residents of Kashmir.

​Two parliamentarians belonging to Mehbooba Mufti's Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) were asked to leave Rajya Sabha on Monday after they attempted to tear the Constitution, in an apparent public display of anger over Government's move of scrapping the controversial Article 370 and Article 35A.

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) leader Mehbooba Mufti, in a tweet, said: "Decision of J&K leadership to reject 2 nation theory in 1947 & align with India has backfired. Unilateral decision of GOI to scrap Article 370 is illegal & unconstitutional which will make India an occupational force in J&K."

Various celebrities like Dia Mirza, Zaira Wasim, Shruti Seth, Gauahar Khan etc have taken to their social media handles to share their views on the Jammu and Kashmir turmoil.

Amid the turmoil in Jammu and Kashmir, several top political leaders condemned the house arrest of several top political leaders of the state, including Menbooba Mufti, Omar Abdullah and Sajad Lone, amidst speculations of big decision making in New Delhi. Leaders including Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, former Union Minister P Chidambaram and CPI-M chief Sitaram Yechury criticized the government for the detention of the political leadership in Kashmir. Here's how they reacted.

As security forces began an unprecedented clampdown in Jammu and Kashmir, People's Democratic Party (PDP) chief Mehbooba Mufti said she missed Atal Bihari Vajpayee's absence the most. Mobile internet services have been suspended in Jammu and Kashmir from midnight while leaders like Omar Abdullah, Mehbooba and Sajjad Lone have been put under house arrest.

Moments after being put under house arrest in Srinagar in an unprecdented clampdown, national conference's Omar Abdullah tweeted that though this was not the India Jammu and Kashmir acceded to he has not given up hope. There's has been massive unrest in valley following the latest developments in Kashmir Valley.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday proposed to scrap Article 370 of the Constitution which gives special status to Jammu and Kashmir and said the state would be split into two Union Territories: Jammu and Kashmir with an Assembly and Ladakh without one. Shah's announcement came after days of escalating tension in Jammu and Kashmir, particularly the Kashmir Valley, where panicky residents have been buying up essential goods amid a security build up. 

Despite requests by her security that she should not leave her residence for security reasons yesterday evening, former state chief minister and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) President, Mehbooba Mufti reportedly managed to give her security a slip and landed at the high security Gupkar Road residence of National Conference (NC) President and Parliament member, Farooq Abdullah.

"Workers of all political parties should come together so that a message can be given to Centre that they can't toy with Jammu and Kashmir's special position.Recent developments in Jammu and Kashmir have created fear among people and it's unfortunate that Centre isn't issuing a clear statement," Mehbooba Mufti said

Triple Talaq bill has been passed in Rajya Sabha. Now is the time for political reactions. Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Ministers Mehbooba Mufti and Omar Abdullah are engaged in a Twitter war.

Giving a straight warning to the Central government against the revocation of Article 35A in Jammu and Kashmir, former Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti on Sunday said any tinkering with the constitutional provision would be akin to setting a powder keg on fire. In addition, Mehbooba Mufti has also asked her party workers to be prepared for a big fight for the protection of Article 35A.
