Kulgam, Feb 5: Blaming Chief Minister Omar Abdullah for 110 killings in 2010, Leader of Opposition (LoP) and senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader, Sunil Sharma on Wednesday alleged that National Conference has been orchestrating turmoil in J&K since 1931.
Talking to reporters here in south Kashmir, Sharma said, “All civilian killings that have taken place here, especially the killing of 9th-class student Tufail Mattoo and thousands of other youth, were due to the NC’s policies. The party is solely responsible for these tragedies.”
“I want to tell the JKNC spokesperson that their Chief Minister was responsible for the killing of 110 people in just 10 days in 2010.” Referring to the post-abrogation scenario, Sharma said, “Since the abrogation of Article 370, terrorism and separatism have suffered a major blow. This is evident to everyone. However, Pakistan-backed elements present are unable to accept this change. They are targeting innocents to create fear.”
“The way the Centre has ensured that Pakistan’s plans in J&K are foiled,” he added.
Meanwhile, BJP J&K President Sat Sharma condemned the killing of an ex-serviceman, Manzoor Ahmad Wagay. “Perpetrators must not go unpunished. Pakistan is trying to destabilize peace but has failed on all fronts. Now, it is resorting to attacks on innocents. Those aiding Pakistan here will not be spared and will be brought to justice,” he said. On the prevailing security situation, he said that the government is actively addressing the issue. “No culprit will be spared,” he said. (KNO)
