PDP president Mehbooba Mufti on Tuesday, 19 February, termed a JNU professor as "diabolical and ignorant" after the latter alleged that vehicle checking on the Jammu-Srinagar highway, where a terror attack killed 40 CRPF personnel, was relaxed by the former chief minister.

Amita Singh, a professor of law, governance and disaster studies at the JNU, also asked the PDP chief to give "40 people for public execution" if she really was hurt by the deaths of the paramilitary personnel in last week's terror attack in Pulwama.

Responding to the tweet, the PDP tagged the Delhi Police and called for legal action against her.

Mufti also took to Twitter Tuesday to criticise the professor for the remarks.

"How can someone who imparts education be so diabolical & ignorant by choice? Is she educated in the real sense? She seems to possess an unfettered imagination with an aim to persecute Kashmiris. Ironical that she teaches ethics and law!" she said.

When contacted, Singh said Mufti's remarks were not worthy of her reaction and that her party needed to understand the pain of the attack.
