JAMMU, Feb 19: Kavinder Gupta, former Deputy Chief Minister and senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader, has slammed People’s Democratic Party chief and former CM Mehbooba Mufti for making `obnoxious’ and `irrelevant’ statements time and again.
Kavinder said by linking BJP leaders with Mughals, Mehbooba Mufti was giving vent to her utter frustration due to staying away from power. He suggested to use Google before giving any statement.
“Hinduism is not founded by a person or a prophet. About 6000 years ago, there was only one religion in the whole world, whose name was Sanatana Dharma,” said the BJP leader, adding that the Sanatana Dharma was practised under different name across the world before Islam was founded.
Clarifying over the role of Congress in Independence, Kavinder reminded the PDP leader that before Independence Congress was just a movement not any political Party and Gandhi ji was also in favour of dissolving the Congress after attaining the freedom from Britishers.
The former Dy Chief Minister said that Mehbooba is amongst such leaders who have lost their political ground among the masses across J&K Union Territory and even in their home constituencies, right upto the grass-root level. “Seeing her future quite bleak in the coming time with no hope of coming back to power, Mehbooba feels that she would be able to get support of some people in her constituency least realizing that people understand her game-plan and can’t be befooled any more now, he added.
Kavinder said that there is a segment in Kashmiri leadership which is habitual of raising fingers on the working of Government despite the fact that every step which this Government has taken in the past has proved benevolent for the people of J&K, especially Kashmir. “As on record the common man in the Valley is coming out in full support of Government for the steps it has taken in carrying out development, crushing the terrorism and restoring peace and normalcy,” he said and claimed that J&K was witnessing unprecedented tempo of development since the BJP has taken over the reins of Centre.
