Mehbooba Mufti hits back, says BJP disowning its own initiative

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ In the wake of criticism by former alliance partner BJP that PDP employed soft policy on terror in the Valley and did not utilise funds for the development of Jammu region, former CM Mehbooba Mufti hit back saying it is “sad” to see BJP disown their own initiative and label it as “soft approach”.

“Many false charges levelled against us by our former allies. Our commitment to the Agenda of Alliance, co-authored by Ram Madhav & endorsed by senior leaders like Rajnath Ji never wavered. It is sad to see them disown their own initiative & label it a ‘soft approach,” said Mufti in a tweet.

BJP chief Amit Shah on Saturday alleged how the Hindu-dominated Jammu had fallen behind in the race for development under the Mehbooba Mufti government. He claimed that the discrimination against Jammu was the main reason for pulling out of its four-year old coalition with PDP.
