JAMMU, June 15: J&K National Conference additional general secretary and former Minister Ajay Kumar Sadhotra today described the BJP national general secretary Tarun Chugh as a political bankrupt, lacking decency and understanding about Jammu and Kashmir.
Reacting to Chugh’s tirade against National Conference president and former Chief Minister, asking if the reactionary BJP’s Jammu and Kashmir incharge considers Dr Farooq Abdullah as PRO of Pakistan what is his and his party’s take on former Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee, who used to say ‘friends can be changed but not the neighbours.
Similarly, how would Chugh rate Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s unscheduled visit to Lahore to meet Nawaz Sharief and his family at a social event, he asked.
“Perhaps Chugh has forgotten how Modi conducted himself at Pakistan Prime Minister’s event “, he said, elaborating that nobody asked questions to Narendra Modi. As of today, he informed Chugh, Prime Minister Modi during his talks with the Ukrainian President Zelensky, on sidelines of G-7 Summit in Italy, has asserted that India believes in a human-centric approach and believes that the way to peace is through dialogue and diplomacy, Sadhotra added.
He said by attacking NC leadership, Chugh is perhaps placating his leadership, which must by now have understood about dismal failure on ground zero.
Sadhotra said since Chugh has been chartered by his party to J&K, where it has no base, he should do some homework on politics, history and geography of this part of the country.
NC leader asked the BJP in general and Chugh in particular, to shun NC phobia and instead have some introspection on the humiliating losses it suffered during the just concluded Lok Sabha elections.
“The nation understands and acknowledges the contribution and relevance of Dr Farooq Abdullah and Omar Abdullah in the J&K polity and the esteem they enjoy in the hearts of their people”, Sadhotra said and advised the BJP leaders to shun their myopic political vision and hate for the NC leadership.
