Kashmir issue: Gautam Gambhir responds to Mehbooba Mufti's tweet on Amit Shah

New Delhi, June 4 (IBNS): Former Indian cricketer and BJP MP Gautam Gambhir exchanged words with Mehbooba Mufti after she attacked Union Home Minister Amit Shah over solving the Kashmir issue.

Mehbooba had tweeted: " Since 1947, Kashmir’s been looked through the prism of security by successive governments. It’s a political problem that needs a political redressal by involving all stakeholders inc Pak.Expecting a quick fix through brute force by newly appointed HM is ridiculously naive."

In response, Gambhir tweeted :"While I am all for a talk-based solution to Kashmir problem but for @mehboobamufti to term Shri @AmitShah’s process as “brute” is “ridiculously naive”. History has been witness to our patience and endurance. But if oppression ensures security for my people, then so be it."

Gambhir won the Lok Sabha polls on his debut in the political arena from a seat in the national capital.

Mufti on Monday demanded for a 'political solution' to the Kashmir issue.

Mufti is a former ally of the Bharatiya Janata Party.

Meanwhile, Gambhir and his BJP scripted a massive victory in the Lok Sabha polls this time.

Last Thursday, Modi took oath as the PM of the nation.

Amit Shah was appointed as the Union Home Minister of the country.
