SRINAGAR: PDP president Mehbooba Mufti on Tuesday said she was shocked to see Bihar Chief Minister pulling down the veil off a Muslim woman’s face, as the former Jammu and Kashmir CM raised questions on Nitish Kumar continuing in office.

“Having personally known & admired Nitish ji I was shocked to see him pull down a young Muslim woman’s naqaab. Does one attribute it to old age or the normalisation of humiliating Muslims publicly,” Mufti said in a post on X.

She was commenting on a viral video in which Kumar can be seen pulling down the face veil of a Muslim woman during a felicitation ceremony.
