It also formulated an important part of our Agenda of Alliance wholeheartedly agreed upon by BJP. Der aayee durust aaye. Better late than never but only if it isn\u2019t jumlebaazi like generating two crore jobs every year or empty promises of depositing 15 lacs into bank accounts,\u201d she said in a post on X.<br \/>\nShah on Tuesday said the central government will consider revoking the AFSPA in <a href=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/chief-justice-administers-oath-of-office-to-justice-mohd-yousuf-wani\/\">Jammu and Kashmir<\/a>.<br \/>\nIn an interview to Gulistan TV, Shah also said the government has plans to pull back troops in the Union Territory (UT) and leave law and order to the Jammu and Kashmir Police alone.<br \/>\nThe former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister hoped that the government would fulfil its commitment in case of AFSPA revocation as it would bring relief to the people of the UT.<br \/>\n\u201cOne can only hope that they fulfil their commitment at least in this case since it would bring a huge relief to the people of J&amp;K. To walk the talk perhaps MHA can start by releasing journalists &amp; thousands of young Kashmiri boys currently languishing in jails without any charges or prosecution,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13755\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13755\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13755\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Screenshot-2024-03-27-at-1.31.50-PM-300x210.png\" alt=\"Better Late Than Never: Mehbooba On Home Minister\u2019s Statement On AFSPA\" width=\"300\" height=\"210\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13755\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Better Late Than Never: Mehbooba On Home Minister\u2019s Statement On AFSPA<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SRINAGAR, Mar 27: PDP president Mehbooba Mufti on Wednesday welcomed Home Minister Amit Shah\u2019s statement on considering revocation of the Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) from Jammu and Kashmir but hoped it would not be a \u201cJumelbaazi\u201d like the BJP promise of providing two crore jobs in the country every year.
