BJP spokesperson Rachana Reddy attacked Mehbooba Mufti and Rahul Gandhi for pursuing separatist politics and upsetting the nation’s racial peace and unity. Mehbooba Mufti’s desire to take part in the Bharat Jodo Yatra prompted Rachna Reddy to respond by saying, “It is merely an oxymoron of her party, political objective, or whatever she is doing in Kashmir.” She also mentioned Mehbooba Mufti as an ‘unadulterated separatist’.
