Is Congress Hand-in-Glove with Pakistan-Supported National Conference?
STATE TIMES NEWS
JAMMU/SRINAGAR: Bhartiya Janta Party National General Secretary Tarun Chugh questioned the Congress’s silence on the National Conference’s demand to restore Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir. Urging Congress to clarify its stance, Chugh asserted that the National Conference, under Abdullah’s leadership, seems to align with Pakistan’s ISI-driven agenda.
Addressing a party membership drive review meeting in Jammu, Chugh pointed out that with Congress recently allying with the National Conference in the J&K elections, the public deserves to know if Congress endorses this Pakistan-supported agenda.
He added that at a time when the people of J&K are focused on development and progress, actively supporting various schemes launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the NC-Congress alliance is instead promoting a divisive agenda that risks fueling separatism and terrorism.
Chugh condemned their “nefarious objectives” aimed at compromising India’s integrity, emphasizing that such actions would not be tolerated under any circumstances. He also noted that recent assembly sessions have been unproductive, with continuous disruptions preventing meaningful discussion on development issues.
“Omar Abdullah should prioritize the development of Jammu and Kashmir. Instead, he is misleading the people and neglecting his fundamental responsibilities as a leader. The nation is watching the National Conference’s unconstitutional efforts closely,” Chugh remarked, critiquing Abdullah’s leadership.
Chugh further underscored the BJP’s unwavering commitment to safeguarding India’s unity and fostering development and prosperity in Jammu and Kashmir. He called on the National Conference and Congress to abandon divisive tactics and work toward the region’s progress. “The BJP remains resolute in its mission to protect our nation’s unity and integrity. We will not allow any attempts to undermine India’s sovereignty and will continue to advocate for the rights and development of the people of Jammu and Kashmir,” Chugh affirmed.
Chugh was accompanied by State President Sat Sharma, MP Jugal Kishore Sharma, Leader of Opposition Sunil Sharma, Dr. Devendra Maniyal, Vibodh Gupta, Ashok Kaul, Dr. Nirmal Singh, Kavinder Gupta, Priya Sethi, as well as state office bearers, Morcha Presidents, Morcha General Secretaries, Morcha Prabharis, and District Presidents, along with all 28 BJP MLAs of the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly.
