NEW DELHI: Taking on former J&K chief minister Omar Abdullah, Union Minister Arun Jaitley Monday said his demand for revival of the post of prime minister and president in J&K is intended to create a “separatist psyche” and asserted that new India would never allow any Government to commit such blunders.
Earlier in the day, Abdullah said his party, National Conference (NC), would not allow any attacks on Jammu and Kashmir’s special status and would seek restoration of terms of accession of the State, including the provision for ‘Sadr-e-Riyasat’ (president) and Wazir-e-Azam (prime minister).
The two mainstream parties — NC and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) of Mehbooba Mufti — in Kashmir are increasingly losing their identities, Jaitley said in a blog.
“The separatists and the terrorists want a part of the State to segregate from India. India will never accept this. (AGENCIES)
