Modi Govt ‘weakening’ relationship between Centre and J-K: Omar

SRINAGAR: The BJP-led Government at the Centre is “weakening the relationship” between the Union and Jammu and Kashmir, National Conference (NC) vice-president Omar Abdullah alleged Thursday.

“Our party has never questioned the accession. We have always said that whatever we achieve, we will achieve from the Constitution of this country. But, under the Constitution, everyone has equal rights of safety and security. (However), which Constitution do I talk about when my people are not protected, which flag do I talk about when these people (attackers) take refuge in the (national) flag and attack my people. What law do I talk about when your own chief minister does not uphold it,” he said, referring to attack on two Kashmiris in Lucknow on Wednesday.

The former chief minister was addressing a party function here today. (AGENCIES)
