Released after 14 months of detention on Tuesday, Ms. Mufti said the decision of abrogation of Article 370 had been hurting her heart and soul during every moment of her detention.
Describing the August 5, 2019 black day, Ms. Mufti said, No one among us will forget the humiliation of the day Article 370 was abrogated. No one among us can ever forget the robbery and the insult.
She said the path ahead would not be easy but I believe that our courage and determination will be our companion in walking this path.
Today, when I am released I want the immediate release of everyone from J&K who are languishing in various jails of the country, she said.
