JAMMU: Former Union Minister and Member of Parliament, Anurag Singh Thakur on Wednesday said that the Gandhi-Abdullah families are advocating for terrorists and separatists in Jammu and Kashmir.
Anurag Thakur said, “During the rule of the three families, Jammu and Kashmir became synonymous with conflict, terrorism, and instability. But today, we are living in a Jammu and Kashmir that is progressing on the path of peace, development, and prosperity. This story of transformation is not just a result of political change, but of the determination and dedication of Prime Minister Narendra Modi towards the people of Kashmir, which has brought Jammu and Kashmir to this point. But now, the Gandhi-Abdullah families are saying they want to release prisoners, separatists and terrorists. The BJP will not let this happen. Why do they want to release enemies of the country who are locked in jail? Why do they want to disturb the peaceful Jammu and Kashmir again? Why do the Gandhi-Abdullah families have so much sympathy for drug traffickers, terrorists, and stone-pelters?”
Anurag Thakur added, “The three families, who deprived Jammu and Kashmir of its rights and acquired luxuries for themselves, and now is the time that their candidates will certainly lose in elections for the misdeeds. Omar Abdullah, who previously said he wouldn’t contest the elections, is now running from two constituencies, and in both places, his condition is really weak. By revoking Article 370, the BJP has provided relief to the people of Jammu and Kashmir. Valmiki communities, Gurkhas, refugees from West Pakistan, and Gujjar-Bakarwal communities have gained rights and reservation benefits. The National Conference, Congress and PDP want to snatch these rights from these communities and the agenda of these three parties is the same.”
Anurag said, “Even after 60 years of Congress rule in the country, Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi never came to play in the snow of Kashmir. It was only after Prime Minister Narendra Modi abrogated Article 370 that the Gandhi family is able to enjoy holidays in the valleys. And now, the Congress, National Conference and PDP want to reinstate Article 370 and push Jammu and Kashmir back into the fire of anarchy, terrorism, and separatism. Kashmir has suffered for decades due to the mistakes of the Gandhi-Abdullah families, and the region fell behind in economic development. Jammu and Kashmir has now witnessed development and peace, and hence, BJP will form the government here once again!”
