JAMMU: BJP National General Secretary Tarun Chugh on Wednesday assailed AICC leader Rahul Gandhi, who is also the Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, for raising a narrative which is not less than a canard and falsehood.
Addressing party workers, Chugh said that the BJP was already committed to restore the status of statehood to J&K but it was ridiculous to see Rahul Gandhi harping on the subject simply because he had no vision of growth and development of J&K.
Chugh said Rahul Gandhi visits J&K like a dreamland boy and fails to connect with the grassroot problems of the people.
He said Rahul should have first of all apologised for the mistakes Pt Jawaharlal Nehru committed in J&K and the subsequent alliance that the Congress built with the Pakistan ISI to create turmoil in J&K.
Chugh strongly condemned Rahul Gandhi for dancing to the tunes of Pakistan and the Abdullah family by talking of statehood. There should have been a concern for the youth and women of J&K, but Rahul Gandhi would always fail to measure up simply because he has no idea of the problems of the people in J&K, he added.
“He (Rahul) has come here like a prince tourist and has delivered a speech written by the Abdullah family to please its mentors in Pakistan”, he added
Chugh said the Modi government has shown a new sunrise to the people of J&K, making the Union Territory a tourist capital of the country whereas Rahul Gandhi’s party and the Abdullahs made it a terrorist bastion.
