'Unprecedented': Mehbooba, Omar praise J&K Guv

After Jammu and Kashmir governor Satyapal Malik broadly explained the last-minute dissolution of the state assembly, he has earned praise for two former chief ministers Mehbooba Mufti and Omar Abdullah. Bitter rivals Mehbooba and Omar, who had come together in a rare move, had attacked the governor’s timing of the dissolution. Meanwhile, the governor’s office has said his comment was misconstrued.
