Azad attacks Mehbooba, Omar, for ties with BJP

Democratic Progressive Azad Party (DPAP) chairman Ghulam Nabi Azad on Friday attacked the National Conference (NC) and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). He accused their leaders of working with the BJP.

“These politicians have only learned deceit and how to make false statements to win elections. I am accused of having links with the BJP. However, they are hiding their own misdeeds. They formed a government with the BJP and some enjoyed ministerial berths in the NDA [National Democratic Alliance],” Mr. Azad said in his hometown Doda.

He was referring to PDP president Mehbooba Mufti’s decision to ally with the BJP in Jammu and Kashmir and NC leader Omar Abdullah’s ministerial stint in the NDA regime.
