Srinagar, Oct 26 : BJP’s Baramulla district spokesperson Reyaz Ahmad Dentoo on Monday criticised National Conference president Dr Farooq Abdullah over his remarks on Pakistan, accusing the party of adopting double standards and misleading people in Jammu and Kashmir.
Speaking to The Web Story/The Varmul Post, Dentoo said it was contradictory for political leaders to praise Pakistan while availing security cover from Indian authorities.
He alleged that the National Conference leaders made different statements in Delhi and Jammu and Kashmir, accusing them of pursuing political interests to remain in power.
Dentoo also asserted that people in Kashmir had become politically aware and would no longer be misled by such statements.
Referring to October 26, 1947, the day Jammu and Kashmir acceded to India, the BJP leader congratulated the people of Jammu and Kashmir and the country on the occasion.
He accused the NC leadership of failing the people of the region and alleged that political leaders had caused suffering to Kashmiris in their pursuit of power.
Dentoo reiterated his criticism of Abdullah’s Pakistan remarks and accused the National Conference of following a policy of double standards.
