National Conference leader Farooq Abdullah condemned the BJP’s remarks on the Jammu and Kashmir statehood resolution, calling the criticism unfounded and politically motivated.
National Conference chief Farooq Abdullah publicly denounced the Bharatiya Janata Party’s criticism of the Jammu and Kashmir statehood resolution. In his statement, Abdullah described the BJP’s remarks as baseless and driven by political considerations rather than genuine concern for the region.
He emphasized that the resolution reflects the aspirations of the people of Jammu and Kashmir and urged political parties to respect democratic processes. Abdullah warned that continued attacks on the resolution could further polarise the public and hinder constructive dialogue.
The BJP, which has previously expressed reservations about the resolution, has not issued a detailed response to Abdullah’s comments as of now. The exchange underscores the ongoing political friction surrounding the status of Jammu and Kashmir.
Analysts note that the debate may influence upcoming legislative discussions and affect the broader relationship between regional parties and the central government.
