‘Farooq abandoned Hindus’: BJP schools Omar for doubting ‘The Kashmir Files’

Published on Mar 19, 2022 01:19 pm IST

A day after former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah called Vivek Agnihotri's latest release 'The Kashmir Files' a concocted story, BJP has lashed out at the National Conference leader. In a series of tweets, BJP leader Amit Malviya schooled Omar Abdullah and asserted that his father Farooq Abdullah was a coward who abandoned Hindus during the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits in 1990s. In one of the tweets he said, “After Farooq Abdullah quit on 18 Jan 1990, Jagmohan reached Srinagar on 22 Jan 1990. By then (19 Jan 1990 onwards) jihadis had taken over the valley. Announcements were made from Mosques asking Kashmiri Hindus to convert, leave or die.” Watch this video for more details.
