Jammu, Mar 18: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national general secretary Tarun Chugh, who is also the party incharge of J&K, on Monday accused the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti of spreading a divisive agenda among people for “petty political reasons” in view of the coming Lok Sabha elections.
In a statement, Chugh took strong exception to the manner in which Mehbooba has been spreading the “anti-India” narrative in J&K. ‘It is time that Muftis and Abdullahs along with the Gandhis realise that the people in J&K would not accept nepotism and family rule in the Union Territory,” he said.
The BJP leader said raking up the Pulwama issue at a time when the J&K was moving towards a new era of development and progress only indicated frustration in the Mufti family.
“It seems that Mehbooba is trying to seek the help of her mentors across the border to once again create a situation of disturbance an violence in J&K to garner votes,” he said.
“The way the Modi government has written a new chapter of peace and amity in J&K, there are all indications that Abdullahs and Muftis would only eat the dust in the coming elections,” Chugh added.
