Kavinder rubbishes Farooq’s statement

Excelsior Correspondent

JAMMU, May 11: Senior BJP leader and former Deputy Chief Minister, Kavinder Gupta today rubbished the claim made by NC leader, Farooq Abdullah about Intelligence Bureau (IB) offering Rs 15,000 cash and cell phones to youths in lieu of information and that the agency would kill them at a later stage.
In a statement issued here, the BJP leader said that such irresponsible claims by one of the former heads of the Unified Command are uncalled for because anyone being the part of power corridors knows well that there is no veracity in such baseless remarks. He said that both Farooq and Mehbooba Mufti bite the hands that feed them, and Opposition to the Government is the clear cut instance to prove this fact.
Kavinder advised Farooq and Mehbooba to restrain from showing their fondness towards Pakistan, which is a failed State now, and start working for welfare of people of J&K.
Kavinder accused the National Conference (NC) and PDP leadership of following directions of Pakistan to satiate the rogue nation’s agenda in J&K. He said that after getting exposed in their home turf- Kashmir and losing relevance, both the leaders viz Farooq and Mehbooba are looking for an issue to once again befool the people like they did in the past but the people today are wise enough and know the age old tactics of these so-called Kashmir centric politicians, and are in no mood to again fall prey to their traps.
The senior BJP leader said it is strange that PDP leader Mehbooba is still speaking the language of Pakistan despite the self-made political turmoil in that country. He said that the love of Farooq and Mehbooba towards Pakistan is intriguing and the Government should probe the compulsion under which these leaders are taking sides with Pakistan brazenly challenging the policies of the Government of India towards the rogue nation.
