LUCKNOW: UP Congress chief Raj Babbar today termed the depiction of Jammu and Kashmir as “Indian Occupied Kashmir” in a booklet released by the party as “deplorable”, and said those responsible for the blunder would face severe action.
Speaking to reporters here, Babbar said Congress spokesperson Randeep Surjewala has already cleared the party’s position on the issue. “Kashmir is an integrated part of India, and this incident is deplorable,” Babbar said.
To a question of a probe in this regard, Babbar said it is certain that those who are guilty will face stringent action.
Page 12 of the 16-page booklet titled ‘Rashtriya Suraksha per Aanch’, which was distributed by the Congress yesterday, depicts the entire state of Jammu and Kashmir as “Indian Occupied Kashmir” in the context of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor.
The booklet was released by senior Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad in Lucknow. (AGENCIES)
