Omar Abdullah led govt insulting national institutions: Chugh

New Delhi, Nov 6: BJP National General Secretary Tarun Chugh today alleged that the Omar Abdullah led National Conference (NC) government is  grossly insulting  national institutions like the constitution and the Supreme Court by bringing in a resolution on Article 370 in the assembly.

In a statement he said, “ It also amounts to disrespecting the Parliament which had put its stamp on the abolition of Article 370.”

Chugh ridiculed the political sense of the Omar Abdulah government for trying to reverse what the Parliament has approved and what the Supreme Court  has allowed.

Lashing out at the NC government, he said it was a gravely anti-national act of the Omar Abdullah government which is aimed at pushing the agenda laid down by the Pakistan ISI. Chugh said it clearly demonstrated that the NC government was determined to follow the Pakistan agenda instead of addressing the problems of common man.

Expressing his serious concern over  it, the senior BJP leader called it a "cheap political gimmick"  by the Omar Abdullah government. He said if Chief Minister Omar Abdullah was serious about it he should have taken the call instead of firing a controversial salvo from the shoulder of a Deputy Chief Minister.

He said the BJP would not allow such flimsy issues to come to the forefront as the BJP carries a huge mandate of J&K people endorsing the abolition of Article 370.

“Omar Abdullah government is deliberately trying to disturb the law and order situation in J&K by politicising such issues and is trying to take J&K back to stone age,” Chugh said.

He added that Modi government has already laid down a path of development and progress for the J&K youth and it would be a grave tragedy if the Omar Abdullah government gets J&K back to the dark age times of bullets and violence.
