Union Home Minister Amit Shah has said that the decision to detain three former chief ministers of Jammu and Kashmir – Farooq Abdullah, Mehbooba Mufti, and Omar Abdullah – was a professional decision that was taken because of provocative statements they allegedly made, PTI reported on Friday. No one had called them “anti national”, Shah said at a news summit organised by ABP News on Thursday.

“Please see the statements made by them: like the entire country will be on fire if Article 370 was touched…In the backdrop of these statements, a professional decision was taken to keep them under detention for sometime,” Shah said at the summit.
