SRINAGAR: Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti today hit back at National Conference for faulting it for forging a coalition with BJP, reminding the opposition party that it too had joined hands with the saffron party.
The PDP chief asserted that her party has not compromised its agenda including status quo on Article 370 of the Constitution which guarantees special status to the State, while the NC had tied up with BJP just to “grab power”.
The Chief Minister also took strong exception to the statement of Jammu Chapter of Chamber of Commerce and Industries threatening a violent movement against “illegal foreign settlers” if Government fails to deport them within 10 days. Mehbooba said “strict action will be taken against anyone who will try to take the law in his own hands”.
Referring to the poll campaign by the NC seeking votes against PDP for entering into an alliance with BJP, Mehbooba said the opposition party had tied-up with all national parties including BJP in the past to attain power in the State. (AGENCIES)
