Recalling similar ‘Fidayeen attacks’ at CRPF Training Camp at Pulwama in January this year preceded by District Police Lines Pulwama in August last year, Army camp at Nagrota in Nov 2016, Army Brigade HQ at Uri in Sept 2016 and IAF Station at Pathankot in Jan. 2016, he said several defence personnel were martyred and many were critically injured in the series of attacks but the BJP partnered Govt had not learnt lessons from its past mistakes.
He accused the Saffron party of colluding with Kashmir centric ally in appeasing the anti-national elements which had led to civil unrest, clashes, shut downs, public attacks on police stations, lynching and killing of police personnel, assault on security forces, death and destruction. “Revocation of FIRs from 9730 stone pelters in Kashmir, rehabilitation policy for the surrendered militants, slapping of FIRs on the Army in Kashmir, all had emboldened the radical outfits to go berserk and unleash fidayeens on Army camps to cause mayhem”, Harsh rued.
Describing the ugly episode of Pro-Pak slogans raised inside the Legislature by NC MLA Akbar Lone, Harsh Dev said that BJP MLAs had hurt the nationalist sentiment and Dogra pride once again by maintaining stoic silence while such treacherous slogans were raised on the floor of the House.
