Jammu and Kashmir Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Chaudhary on Wednesday expressed hope that the judiciary will do justice with jailed MLA from Doda Mehraj Malik.Malik, who is the AAP’s Jammu and Kashmir unit president, was detained under the stringent Public Safety Act (PSA) on September 8 2025, for allegedly disturbing public order and was subsequently lodged in the Kathua jail.
“We are hopeful that the judiciary will do justice in the case of Mehraj Malik as it did in Sonam Wangchuk’s case,” Chaudhary told reporters in Kulgam district.
The deputy chief minister asserted said his party had been against the detention of the environment activist right from the beginning of the case.”We are proud of the judiciary… what wrong did he (Wangchuk) do?,” he said.
On the matter of the ongoing war between Pakistan and Afghanistan, Chaudhary said the world leaders will have to end the wars to save the world for future generations.
“The conflict is not limited to one region, as more countries are fighting each other. Earlier leaders, like Vajpayee, spoke about peace. Even our president Farooq Abdullah says war is not a solution. The world leaders will have to stop the wars,” he said.
