Srinagar: Reacting to reports that three of the 10 Congress lawmakers in Goa who switched to the BJP earlier this week have found a place in the Cabinet, former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mehbooba Mufti said that ‘Congress free bharat’ is just an excuse for disempowering and stifling other political parties.
