BJP creating rift among parties, alleges Mehbooba

Srinagar, November 28

PDP president Mehbooba Mufti accused the BJP on Sunday of creating divisions among the political parties in Jammu and Kashmir and aiming to justify the “unconstitutional and illegal” decisions of August 5, 2019 in the next Assembly through leaders switching parties.

“First it (BJP) attacked the PDP and created proxy parties here — you know which ones and I do not have to take their names. Then they created a division within the NC (National Conference) in Jammu and made those leaders join the BJP,” she told reporters at Bandipora, where she addressed a party convention.

Referring to the recent resignations from party posts by several Congress leaders in Jammu and Kashmir, the PDP chief said it seemed the BJP was now trying to divide the grand old party. — PTI
