The workers of ABVP burnt an effigy of NC president Farooq Abdullah and PDP president Mehbooba Mufti in Jammu on Monday.
The workers of NC-ABVP were engaged in a confrontation as ABVP activists shouted slogans against the People’s Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD) and burned the effigies of Farooq Abdullah and Mehbooba Mufti.
The ABVP activists while holding the tri-colours assembled outside the Bathindi house of NC President and MP, Dr Farooq Abdullah to express their anguish against the Gupkar Alliance, a joint platform of mainstream political parties for restoration of Article 370 and 35A.
NC workers also reached the spot after the ABVP activists burnt the effigy of Abdullah and PDP president Mehbooba Mufti.
Both the groups confronted each other but with the intervention of the police personnel deployed there prevented the situation from turning worse.
The local eyewitness claimed that the ABVP activists were compelled to flee from the spot. The situation came under control after the ABVP activists fled from the spot. The NC supporters and locals started shouting slogans against the ABVP and alleged that an attempt was being made to “fuel the situation.”
