NC-Cong Alliance Expired Injection, Bound To Fail In J&K: Tarun Chug

Srinagar : The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Saturday called the alliance between National Conference and Congress in Jammu and Kashmir as ‘an expired injection’, saying that it is bound to fail once again.
Addressing a press conference here, Chug said that the alliance between the two parties is an expired injection, which failed in the recent Lok Sabha elections and is bound to fail in the upcoming elections as well.
He added that the party has been preparing for the assembly polls, adding that some of the candidates have been announced while some others will be finalized soon.
“A threadbare discussion took place today with the workers and leaders in which poll preparedness as well as the list of candidates was discussed,” he said, adding that the party will contest the upcoming polls without forging alliance with any of the party.
Moreover, Chug added that National Conference leaders including Dr Farooq Abdullah and Omar Abdullah have been misleading the people of Jammu and Kashmir by one way or the other.
He added that one of the Abdullahs has been claiming to restore Article 370 through the assembly while the other is claiming that it will take 100 years.
Chug further stated that those who were advocating for Pakistan here are now seeking to get united.
He added that it was Dr Farooq Abdullah, who was the chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir when the Kashmir Pandits exodus took place. “I want to tell him why he kept mum and didn’t play his role to ensure communal harmony between the two communities. Dr Farooq is presently playing a drama by making such statements. It is a film script, which he is uttering,” he said.
Chug further stated that they have lost the faith amongst the people as they want to take J&K back to the previous situation and want to replace stones in the hands of youth once again and snatch laptops from their hands.
“The BJP has made J&K as tourism capital, but they want to make it terrorism capital,” Chug said, adding that they have even pledged to snatch the reservation from Gujjar and Bakerwal in their manifesto.
Terming the manifesto of NC as a bundle of lies, Chug said they are trying to mislead the people by making fake promises.
He also added that Kashmiriyat is the amalgamation of several shrines, temples, Gurudwaras and other religious places.
Furthermore, reacting to the visit of Rahul Gandhi to J&K in the first week of September, he said he had not visited J&K for the past 50 years, but it is now becoming possible only after the BJP government ensured peace here
