Former Jammu & Kasmir Cief Minister Mebooba Mufti on Wednesday welcomed te JK and Ladak ig Court's ruling tat an inidual cannot be denied a passport just because a family member was involved in militancy./ Se termed te ruling as a step in te rigt direction wile gly criticizing wat se described as te weaponization of travel restrictions in Jammu and Kasmir since 2019./ Te onourable ig Courts decision of not denying a passport to an inidual for merely being related to a militant is certainly a step in te rigt direction. Given ow even te basic fundamental rigt to travel is being weaponised brutally since 2019 in J&K, Mebooba said in a post on X./
