BJP leader Kavinder slams Mehbooba for advocating talks with Pak
He said that such statements only serve to demoralise the nation and embolden elements trying to disrupt peace in Jammu and Kashmir
Former deputy chief minister and senior BJP leader Kavinder Gupta on Thursday criticised PDP president Mehbooba Mufti on her recent remarks for advocating talks with Pakistan, terming them as “irresponsible” and “misleading.”
He said that such statements only serve to demoralise the nation and embolden elements trying to disrupt peace in Jammu and Kashmir.
Speaking to media persons on the sidelines of a function at Dogra Chowk here, Kavinder Gupta stated that India, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and home minister Amit Shah, has adopted a firm stance against terrorism and its perpetrators.
“The central government has repeatedly shown its resolve to combat terrorism with an iron hand. Any attempt to weaken this resolve by promoting dialogue with a nation that harbours terrorists is unacceptable,” he said.
Kavinder underscored that the Modi government has implemented several measures to ensure peace and security in the region and there is no need for external interference.
“The security forces are well-equipped and capable of dealing with any threat. Pakistan has been exposed on multiple occasions for its role in fostering terrorism, and talking with them under the current circumstances would mean legitimising their hostile actions,” he asserted.
