Abdullahs, Muftis exploiting people on 370: Chugh

Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, Aug 3: BJP national general secretary and Incharge J&K, Tarun Chugh today said that the Supreme Court is the guardian of the rights of individuals and weaker sections of the society who were deprived of their rights before abrogation of Article 370 in the erstwhile State of Jammu & Kashmir.
In a statement issued here, Chugh, while lambasting Abdullahs and Muftis, said “They are just doing politics. What they mean by justice. Did they forget women of J&K were sufferers, while Tribal population including Paharis, Valmakis, SCs, STs and West Pakistan refugees were deprived of their rights?”.
He said that these dynasties which ruled J&K for decades together have been misleading the people of Jammu and Kashmir by their slogan of justice. “The Article 370 has been the biggest hindrance in the development of Jammu and Kashmir, especially the weaker sections,” he said.
A large number of public welfare steps have been taken for the J&K people ever since Article 370 was done away with by Narendra Modi led Government and a new era has dawned upon the Union Territory.
He said J&K has moved away from terrorism to tourism, from bullets and stones to new education and development. A new renaissance has come in J&K post-370 era, he added.
People have realized how Abdullahs and Muftis kept them in the dark all these years and played to the tunes of Pakistan ISI to deprive people of development and progress, Chugh added.
