Omar, Mufti spar over ‘weaponising’ water, patriotism, pro-Pakistan tilt

J&K CM Omar Abdullah's push to restart the Tulbul Navigation Project amid Indus Water Treaty discussions sparked a feud with PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti, who accused him of "weaponising water." The leaders clashed over patriotism and regional interests, with accusations of being pro-Pakistan. The project, stalled since 1987 due to Pakistani objections, aims to aid winter power generation.
