PDP nominates Drabu, Bukhari as political affairs committee members

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti on Friday nominated Dr Haseeb Drabu and Muhammad Altaf Bukahri as members of party’s Political Affairs Committee (PAC).

“Party President @MehboobaMufti today nominated Senior Leaders Mr Haseeb Drabu and Mr Altaf Bukhari as members of party’s Political Affairs Committee (PAC),” PDP wrote on its Twitter handle.

In March this year, former chief minister Mehbooba Mufti dropped the then finance minister Drabu from her council of ministers.

Drabu’s sacking from ministry had come after his “Kashmir is not a political issue but a society with social issues” remarks while speaking at a function in New Delhi in March this year.

Though he had later sought to clarify that he had said that Kashmir was not only a political issue but also a society with social issues and blamed “misreporting” on a “cub reporter” of a news agency.
