SRINAGAR: Jammu and Kashmir Peoples Conference Chairman Sajad Gani Lone Thursday hit hard at leaders of National Conference, saying both Dr Farooq and Omar Abdullah are enjoying life out of jail at the pleasure of BJP.
Talking to reporters on the sidelines of a party convention in north Kashmir’s Handwara, Lone said leaders of National Conference have to give account of their misdeeds they committed from rigging to killings. He said both father-son have been assigned a new task of polarisation ahead of Lok Sabha elections across the country.
“Both Dr Farooq and Omar are out of jail at the pleasure of the BJP. Farooq Abdullah is already found involved in the JK Cricket Association scam, while his son Omar is trapped in the JK Bank scam. Why are the duo enjoying life out of jail,” Lone said.
He said NC leadership is now given a task of polarisation to create communal atmosphere in the country. “Their statements of polarisation are not only a nuisance for J&K but for the Muslims of India as well,” he said.
He also said from 1987 rigging to killing thousands of youth NC leadership is accountable before the nation for their misdeeds they did in their times. He further said that after the Prime Minister of India the father-son are the most protected persons, who are being guarded by 100 personnel each.
Lone who is PC’s Lok Sabha candidate from north Kashmir’s Baramulla said he will reach out to people to seek their vote. “We are hopeful to get 35-40 percent votes. We won’t show over confidence, but will reach people with a soft heart,” he said. (KNS)
