Srinagar: Former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister and People’s Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti escaped unhurt when the Mahindra SUV she was travelling in was hit by another vehicle coming from the opposite direction in southern Anantnag district on Thursday.

Ms. Mufti wrote on microblogging site ‘X’, "Thankful to everyone for their prayers & the outpouring of concern about my well-being. I am fine alhamdulillah (thank God). My driver & PSO have suffered injuries & I hope they recover soon".

The police said that Ms. Mufti’s car met with the accident in the Sangam area of Anantnag, about 55-km south of capital Srinagar. The car was damaged, and its driver received a minor injury in his leg.  Ms. Mufti’s daughter Iltija Mufti who also serves as her media advisor wrote on ‘X’, "Ms Mufti’s car met with a terrible accident enroute Anantnag today. Thanks to the grace of God, she & her security officers escaped unhurt without any serious injuries".

The former



chief minister safely reached her destination-Khanabal on the peripheries of Anantnag town- where she met the sufferers of Wednesday night’s devastating fire that has left scores of indigent boatmen families homeless.

She wrote on microblogging site ‘X’, "Thankful to everyone for their prayers & the outpouring of concern about my well-being. I am fine alhamdulillah (thank God). My driver & PSO have suffered injuries & I hope they recover soon".

National Conference (NC) vice president and former chief minister, while expressing gladness over Ms. Mufti’s escaping unhurt, demanded a probe into the incident including possible "gaps" in her security. In a post on ‘X’, Mr. Abdullah said, "Glad to hear that @MehboobaMufti Sahiba escaped injury in what could have been a very serious incident. I expect the government to enquire into the circumstances of the accident. Any gaps in her security that contributed to this accident must be addressed immediately."
