She dared Modi to give interview to journalists who not falling for scripted PR exercises.
Taking to micro-blogging site tweeter, President of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Mehbooba said “ For obvious reasons, news channels are suddenly being obliged with interviews of the PM. Most seem like well planned PR exercises. The real baptism by fire would be giving one to NDTV or an online portal like @thewire_in”.
Reacting to a report tweet which reads “ PM @narendramodi attacks Mehbooba Mufti, says those backing Section 370 don’t deserve Indian citizenship, she said” Na nau mann tel hoga Aur na radha nachegi BJP’s performance in the phases held until now has been pathetic. Gathbandan’s doing very well. Therefore neither will BJP be reelected nor will they scrap Article 370. Khwaab dekhtay raho!”
In another tweet she asked “ Why don’t these anchors ask PM real questions? Like why was an IAS officer suspended for checking his chopper?He should walk into the lion’s den by allowing @bainjal, @abhisar_sharma,@ravishndtv,@sardesairajdeep or @Nidhi to interview him.Not falling for scripted PR exercises”.
Mr Modi has yesterday during an election rally that the coalition between Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was a ‘Mahamilawat’ (mixture) of oil and water.
