Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister and Peoples Democratic Party chief Mehbooba Mufti has been served a notice to vacate the government quarter she is occupying in south Kashmir’s Anantnag District by the Jammu and Kashmir administration, officials said.
On Saturday, the former CM was served with a notice to vacate quarter number 7 at Housing Colony Khanabal within 24 hours. “You are asked to evict the quarter under reference within 24 hours, failing which action warranted under law shall be taken against you,” read the notice by Deputy Commissioner Anantnag. Earlier on October 20, former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister and Peoples Democratic Party chief Mehbooba Mufti had confirmed that she has been served a notice to vacate her Fairview residence, her official government accommodation in Srinagar.
According to the sources, Mufti has been offered an alternate bungalow in Srinagar.
Soon after the state was converted into a Union Territory in 2019, all former J-K chief ministers’ guaranteed life-term perks were also withdrawn.
