Mehbooba Mufti faces protest during visit to exam centre
Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti had to beat a hasty retreat on Sunday from an examination centre at Women’s College here after angry parents protested against her visit.
She went to Women’s College on Maulana Azad Road to check the arrangements for the pre-medical and pre-engineering test being conducted by the Board of Professional Entrance Examination (BOPEE) in various centres.
As soon as her cavalcade reached the examination centre, the people, mostly parents who accompanied their wards, protested against her visit.
Another person said while the candidates were already tenses due to the prevailing situation in Kashmir Valley, the chief minister’s visit would disturb them more. “How will they remain focused?” he asked.
As the people protested against her visit and raised slogans, the chief minister beat a hasty retreat and left the venue.
