NEW DELHI, Mar 12:
The BJP today termed Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti’s decision to sack Finance Minister Haseeb Drabu from her Cabinet a “setback” to PDP-BJP alliance and said it would widen the gap between the two allies.
A top BJP leader praised Drabu’s role in coordination between the two parties and said he was often the bridge between the Jammu and Kashmir Government and the Centre over a host of issues.
“It is a setback to the alliance,” the BJP leader, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said. He also recalled that Drabu played an important role in the formulation of the GST.
Drabu was a key PDP pointsman in setting the contours of its alliance with the BJP in 2015. (PTI)
