NEW DELHI: As security agencies launch a massive operation against the terror network in Jammu and Kashmir, PDP president Mehbooba Mufti on Sunday urged the Centre to act cautiously and avoid alienating innocent civilians.
"The Indian Government must tread with caution and carefully distinguish between terrorists and civilians following the recent Pahalgam attack . It must not alienate innocent people, especially those opposing terror," Mufti said in a post on X.
Referring to the ongoing crackdown after the attack, the former chief minister alleged that thousands have been arrested and houses of common Kashmiris, along with those of militants, are being demolished.
She appealed to the government to ensure that innocent people do not suffer. "Appeal government to direct the authorities to take care that innocent people are not made to feel the brunt as alienation aids terrorists' goals of division and fear," Mufti warned.
The security operation follows a brutal terror attack at Baisaran meadows, near the tourist town of Pahalgam on April 22, killing 26 people, most of them tourists.
