I formed govt in J&K only because of my father, says emotional Mehbooba

Anantnag, May 5 (UNI) Defending her decision to form a government with coalition partner Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Jammu and Kashmir, Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti today said it was her father’s passion to work for his people that compelled her to take this decision.
“Call me selfish, but the only reason why I formed a government in J&K was my father Mufti Mohammad Sayeed. I wouldn’t have created a government till the time I was fully satisfied, but it was my father’s passion to work for his people that compelled me to do so, an emotional Ms Mufti said during an inaugural function at the launch of four new special trains here.
“During the last days of my father, when he was admitted at the hospital, he was angry with doctors; he asked them why they were wasting his time. He said he had a lot of work to do for the people of his state,” she said.
