SRINAGAR: NC leader Omar Abdullah on Monday said the threat of nuclear annihilation was not like a PUBG game where one can hit the reset button to restore normal life, as he criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi and PDP president Mehbooba Mufti for their remarks.
The former chief minister was reacting to Modi’s speech at an election rally Sunday in which he had said that India’s nuclear bombs were not kept for Diwali.
Responding to Modi’s statement, PDP president Mehbooba Mufti earlier Monday said Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal were not for EId.
Abdullah criticized both these remarks.
“Whether Diwali or Eid, both PM Modi & Ms Mufti have used the threat of nuclear annihilation as some sort of PUBG type game where they can just hit the reset button & life will carry on. Both of them would be well served to remember #Hiroshima & #Nagasaki when issuing such threats,” Abdullah said in a tweet. (AGENCIES)
