PDP president Mehbooba Mufti on Saturday, May 25, staged a protest outside a police station in Jammu and Kashmir’s Anantnag district, where polling is underway in the sixth phase of Lok Sabha elections, against the alleged detention of her party workers and polling agents.
She also claimed that outgoing calls on her mobile number have been suspended.
Police, however, said those detained are overground workers (OGWs) and the action was taken to ensure smooth conduct of elections.
