Farooq Abdullah must not behave like Pak PRO: Chugh

New Delhi, June 13: BJP National General Secretary Tarun Chugh who is also party Incharge for J&K and Ladakh today criticised National Conference (NC ) President Dr Farooq Abdullah for suggesting dialogue with Pakistan at a time when it has been sending organised groups of terrorists into J&K to step up terrorist activities.

In a statement Chugh was reacting to Dr Abdullah’s comment in which pitched for Indo-Pak dialogue. “Pakistan needed to be dealt with only in the manner it has been behaving with India by promoting and plotting cross-border terrorism. Modi government is determined to decimate the Pakistan sponsored terrorism first then think of anything else,” the senior BJP leader said.

Chugh added that Dr Farooq Abdullah should stop behaving like a Pakistan ISI PRO and think of India as a nation first. “Instead of asking Pakistan to stop terrorist activities in J&K Abdullah was suggesting India to go for peace talks. It is extremely unfortunate that Abdullahs have been always speaking in the voice of Pakistan and have no concern for the development and growth of the common man in J&K,”he said.

The senior BJP leader stated that at a time when tourism is at its peak in J&K the Pakistan-sponsored terrorism should be strongly condemned by Abdullahs. “Abdullah should instead tell their mentors in Pakistan to stop cross-border terrorism and then make any suggestion to the Modi government," Chugh added.
