An FIR has been filed against PDP candidate Mehbooba Mufti for leading a street protest on May 25 in the Anantnag-Rajouri constituency, demanding the release of detained PDP workers and polling agents. The protest, involving a large group of PDP supporters in Bijbehara town, allegedly violated the Model Code of Conduct (MCC) and Section 144 of the CrPC. Mufti, a former J&K Chief Minister, claims the protest was against government collusion with local authorities to detain PDP supporters and intimidate voters. Her daughter, Ilitija Mufti, condemned the FIR as an act of intimidation and accused the administration of targeting PDP strongholds to lower voter turnout.
