NEW DELHI: BJP chief Amit Shah on Wednesday held former PM Jawaharlal Nehru of committing a “historic blunder” that is responsible for the present Kashmir problem. Shah said when Pakistan-backed tribal raiders were being repulsed in Kashmir in 1948, Nehru suddenly declared truce. “The reason is not known even today, truce was declared. Never has any leader of the country made such a historic blunder. If Jawaharlalji had not declared a ceasefire at that time, the Kashmir issue would not have existed,” Shah said.
