Jammu, Nov 13: BJP National General Secretary, Tarun Chugh, today questioned the Congress’s silence on the National Conference's demand to restore Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir.

Urging Congress to clarify its stance, Chugh asserted that the National Conference, under Abdullah’s leadership, seems to align with Pakistan’s ISI-driven agenda.

Addressing a party membership drive review meeting in Jammu, the BJP leader Chugh pointed out that with Congress recently allying with the National Conference in the J&K elections, the public deserves to know if Congress endorses this Pakistan-supported agenda.

He added that at a time when the people of J&K are focused on development and progress, actively supporting various schemes launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the NC-Congress alliance is instead promoting a divisive agenda that risks fueling separatism and terrorism.

Chugh condemned their "nefarious objectives" aimed at compromising India’s integrity, emphasizing that such actions would not be tolerated under any circumstances. He also noted that recent assembly sessions have been unproductive, with continuous disruptions preventing meaningful discussion on development issues.

"Omar Abdullah should prioritise the development of Jammu and Kashmir. Instead, he is misleading the people and neglecting his fundamental responsibilities as a leader. The nation is watching the National Conference's unconstitutional efforts closely," Chugh remarked.

BJP leader further underscored the BJP’s unwavering commitment to safeguarding India’s unity and fostering development and prosperity in Jammu and Kashmir. He called on the National Conference and Congress to abandon divisive tactics and work toward the region’s progress. “The BJP remains resolute in its mission to protect our nation’s unity and integrity. We will not allow any attempts to undermine India’s sovereignty and will continue to advocate for the rights and development of the people of Jammu and Kashmir,” he affirmed.
