Meanwhile, Mehbooba Mufti’s daughter Iltija wrote an emotional note for her mother, whose preventive detention entered its 48th day on Sunday. Her daughter wrote: “In normal circumstances, Id have bullied you into calling me your favourite daughter on #DaughtersDay. But these aren’t ordinary times. It’s been 48 days since you were taken from us. Hardest are days when I dream of you & wake up with an agonising pain in my heart. Love you mum”.
