Don't politically penalise Modi govt for exploring peace: Mufti

PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti has opened up on the ceasefire announced between India and Pakistan. "[PM Narendra Modi] government should not be politically penalised for exploring peaceful means," Mufti said. "This is a time for bipartisan statesmanship not division…Opposition must rise above politics," she added. She appealed to Opposition to resist the urge for "knee-jerk criticism".
