Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti met Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh in Delhi on Monday to discuss the situation in Kashmir.

Reacting to the development, opposition National Conference leader Omar Abdullah said Mehbooba has finally given up the "business as usual act".

"So @MehboobaMufti has finally given up on her 'business as usual' act and rushed to Delhi instead.

"The amazing thing is that it's taken 31 days and more than 50 deaths to finally 'disturb' the chief minister," Omar wrote on twitter.

As many as 55 persons including two police personnel have been killed and several thousand others injured in the violent protests since July 9.
