TULMULLA, Jun 22: Peoples Democratic Party chief Mehbooba Mufti was heckled by a group of Kashmiri Pandits during her visit to the Kheer Bhawani temple here on Monday.
Mehbooba, a former chief minister of the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir, visited the temple in central Kashmir's Ganderbal district for the annual mela.
When the PDP chief was leaving the temple complex, she interacted with a few members of the Kashmiri Pandit community, some of whom also clicked selfies with her.
Later, when Mehbooba was speaking to reporters, another group of Pandits heckled her. They wanted to talk to her, but were not allowed by her entourage.
The Pandits raised slogans such as "Jis Kashmir to khoon se seencha, wo Kashmir hamara hai (The Kashmir that we nurtured with blood, is ours)".
A few of them raised slogans of "Bharat Mata ki Jai".
One of them asked PDP spokesperson Mohit Bhan, a Kashmiri Pandit himself, why they were not allowed to talk to Mehbooba. He told them that talks were not held that way when they were sloganeering.
Mehbooba continued to talk to the reporters and left later.
