The Jammu and Kashmir government on Friday revoked the detention order of Farooq Abdullah after seven months. National Conference chief Farooq Abdullah had been under detention since August 2019 following the abrogation of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir. His son and former CM Omar Abdullah and PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti continue to be in detention. The Opposition, including Congress, Trinamool Congress and NCP, have been demanding the release of Farooq Abdullah, Omar Abdullah and Mehbooba Mufti who were detained under the stringent Public Safety Act.
