SRINAGAR, JUNE 16: A delegation of All Party Legislators called on the Chief Minister, Ms Mehbooba Mufti here this afternoon and brought into her notice various issues pertaining to the state’s law makers.

Ms Mehbooba hailed the legislators of J&K who she said have to go through very arduous and sometimes dicey political journey while making it to the august House. “Some of our legislators had to even pay the huge sacrifice of their lives for upholding the democratic traditions in the State,” she said.

Principal Secretary to the Chief Minister, Mr Naveen Kumar Choudhary was also present on the occasion.
