The BJP denounced former J&K chief minister Farooq Abdullah’s claim that Pakistan is protecting Kashmiris, labeling it an act of treason, as reported by The Times of India.
Former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Farooq Abdullah recently asserted that Pakistan is actively protecting Kashmiri residents, a statement that sparked immediate controversy. The claim was published in The Times of India, drawing attention from national political circles.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) responded swiftly, condemning Abdullah’s remarks as an "act of treason" against India. Party leaders framed the statement as a betrayal of national interests and warned that such narratives could fuel separatist sentiments.
Political analysts noted that the BJP’s strong rebuke underscores the party’s sensitivity to any discourse that appears to legitimize Pakistan’s role in Kashmir. The exchange adds another layer to the already tense dialogue between the central government and regional leaders.
No further comments were recorded from Abdullah or his party at the time of reporting, and the issue remains a point of contention in the broader debate over Kashmir’s political future.
