Srinagar: Days after BJP MP Pragya Thakur's 'keeps your knives sharpened remark', former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti on Tuesday said she is not shocked. Speaking at the Hindu Jagarana Vedike's South Region annual convention in Shivamogga (Karnataka) on Sunday, BJP MP Pragya Thakur said, "Keep weapons in your homes, if nothing else, at least knives used to cut vegetables, sharp...Don't know what situation will arise when." "Everyone has the right to self-protection. If someone infiltrates our house and attacks us, giving a befitting reply is our right," she had said.

Taking to Twitter, Mufti said she was "not shocked that a BJP MP openly calls for genocide of Muslims & exhorts her followers to sharpen their knives".
