Jammu, May 06: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national general secretary Tarun Chugh, who is also the party incharge for J&K, on Monday said that the National Conference leaders Farooq Abdullah and Omar Abdullah “stand exposed for being votaries of Pakistan”.
Chugh in a statement said that by questioning Defence Minister Rajnath Singh’s statement of PoK being part of India, the Abdullah family has reaffirmed its anti-national credentials. “The heart and mind of the Abdullahs lies in Pakistan and all that they do in J&K is to please their masters in the ISI,” he said.
Reacting strongly to the statement of NC President Farooq Abdullah that Pakistan was a nuclear power, the BJP leader said, “Instead of being proud of India’s military power Abdullahs have been playing in the hands of Pakistan’s ISI. That is why there has been no development in J&K during their rule.”
He added, “The Abdullahs get their agenda to work in J&K from Pakistan and they do whatever their masters in Pakistan desire them to do. That is why they would never condemn disruptive and violent activities of Pakistan-sponsored terrorists who not only target common people but also use their ammunition against the security forces.”
He asked the people of J&K to teach them a lesson during the Lok Sabha elections.
Chugh also slammed senior Congress leader in Punjab Charanjit Singh Channi for “insulting the security forces for their action on Pakistan terrorists after the Pulwama incidents”, saying, “Congress was as much hand in glove with Pakistan forces as the Abdullahs are.”
