NEW DELHI: National Conference, Congress and Jammu and Kashmir‘s People’s Democratic Party are responsible for terrorism spread in the union territory, Union home minister Amit Shah said on Wednesday.
While addressing a rally in Udhampur, Amit Shah alleged that if NC-Congress alliance come to power then they would impose Pakistan’s agenda.
“The whole world is watching these elections with great attention.On one hand, NC, Congress and PDP are responsible for the terrorism that spread in Jammu and Kashmir for 40 years. On the other hand, there is BJP which is burying terrorism to the depths,” the Union minister said.
The Narendra Modi-led government, Shah said in his address, had fulfilled the dream of party’s patriarch Syama Prasad Mukherjee in August 2019 when it abrogated Article 370.
Shah said whoever spreads terror in Jammu and Kashmir will get his answer at the the gallows.
“I want to ask you whether (Parliament attack convict) Afzal Guru should have been hanged or not. The NC-Congress are now saying he should not have been hanged…,” Shah said.
“They want to release stone pelters and terrorists. Omar Abdullah gave up these dreams because you cannot do it. It is the duty of courts and we have enforced such laws that nobody will dare to hurl a stone anymore,” the minister said at the rally in Udhampur district’s Chenani area.
At the rally Shah also said that no one can restore Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir. This came in a response to Rahul Gandhi’s statement over restoring Article 370 in the region.
“You will all vote not just for Chenani but make a decision for the entire J&K. After independence, it is for the first time that an election is held here where there is no Article 370 or a separate flag…NC and Rahul Baba say that we will bring back Article 370, but I want to tell them that neither you nor the three generations of yours will be able to bring back Article 370.”
He further attacked three families–‘Gandhis”, ‘Muftis’ and ‘Abdhullas’ in his address and said that the families only gave tickets to their own people.
“The three families have given tickets to their own people and made only 87 MLA. But we made more than 30,000 Panch, Sarpanch and Tehsil Panchayats… The river of corruption that they started was cleaned by Prime Minister Modi from the bottom,” Amit Shah said.
