Mufti reacted to her house arrest, writing on Twitter, "GOI wants to push the plight of Kashmiri pandits under the rug because its their callous policies that've led to unfortunate targeted killings of those who chose not to flee. Projecting us mainstream as their enemy is why I've been placed under house arrest today".
