Speaking truth to power is misconstrued as misuse of liberty, alleges Mehbooba

Srinagar, Feb 13 (UNI) Former Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti alleged that speaking truth to power is deliberately being misconstrued as misuse of liberty.

Ms Mufti was reacting to a report that two journalists were booked after they reported about a school principal forced by the Army to host a Republic Day function.

Taking to micro-blogging site Twitter, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba said, “ In Kashmir, journalists report about a school principal forced by Army to host a Republic Day function. Days later, a complaint is filed & the court denies them anticipatory bail. We live in times where speaking truth to power is deliberately misconstrued as ‘misuse of liberty’.”
