PANAJI: Jammu and Kashmir needs a "healing touch" policy for the political process to take over, the chief minister of the state, Mehbooba Mufti , has said.Stating that eliminating militants alone will not solve the problems of the state, she has called for a change in the present discourse on militancy, fighting, crackdowns etc. "Those in the Army and other security forces feel that they have done their job to a great extent. "We need to have a healing touch policy. We need to change that discourse and that is where the whole country has to help us. I remember when I was young, people used to say 'Mufti saab bahut achhe hai, par Hindustani hai' (Mufti saab is good, but he is an Indian).
