Srinagar: National Conference Vice President Omar Abdullah on Wednesday claimed that it was not him but the PDP President Mehbooba Mufti who broke away from the PAGD alliance and questioned why the BJP fielded its candidates during the parliamentary polls of 2019 and not at present.

 

Omar while speaking to media during a campaign trail in Srinagar said that he was no way responsible for breaking the alliance with the PDP and that the alliance had already decided that the wining party will field the candidates on three Lok Sabha seats of Kashmir. “How could you blame me for breaking the alliance. Farooq Abdullah decided the candidature. Mehbooba Ji had given authority to NC President Dr Farooq Abdullah for choosing the candidates. I am witness to this. She said it during a meeting of INDIA Bloc in Mumbai that whatever Farooq Abdullah decides about the candidates, it will be acceptable to her. How can she say I am responsible,” Omar said.

 

He added that those who are fighting as BJP’s proxies in Kashmir valley at present will do no good to people. “How can we expect anything good from them. They are representatives of BJP in Kashmir. It is the BJP that has done everything wrong to us. How could they come as messiahs?,” Omar asked.

 

The NC vice President also questioned why BJP has preferred not to field any candidates from three seats of Kashmir that too when the party claims to have ushered in a new era of peace and development in Jammu and Kashmir. “How come did the BJP field the candidates in 2049 LS polls and is reluctant to contest directly now. The BJP knows that whatever it did to the people was wrong. The party knows that if it fields candidates in Kashmir, they will loose their security deposits as well,” Omar claimed—(KNO)
