PDP chief holds interactive session with youth leaders from across Kashmir ValleyPeoples Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti on Sunday pitched for “self-rule as a final settlement” of the Kashmir problem, as she held first-ever interactive session with youth leaders from across the Kashmir Valley since the removal of Jammu and Kashmir’s special status in 2019. Over 150 youth leaders were invited from all constituencies and districts of the Kashmir Valley. He said the youth leaders also expressed “serious concern” over shrinking space for dissent. It is a matter of concern for the party the way Mr. Parra is being treated,” Mr. Bukhari said. The PDP has demanded immediate release of Mr. Parra and all other detainees from Kashmir.
