Jammu, Nov 28: Former Minister and Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers Party Chairman Harsh Dev Singh on Wednesday said that Governor S P Malik’s statement made in Gwalior recently has spilled the beans and revealed the BJP in its true colours.
“The Governor in his speech in a function organized by a Gwalior based University categorically said that he did not install Sajjad Lone’s Govt. as he did not want to be remembered as a dishonest person,” Mr. Singh here said on Wednesday.
He said that his sensational disclosure had created ripples in the political landscape of the state.
The BJP stood fully exposed for its duplicity and ‘dishonest’ intentions by the honest confession made by the Governor, said Mr. Singh, adding that no further proof of BJP’s demagoguery and unprincipled politics was required adding that the Governor’s clarification should serve as an eye opener for the people of Jammu especially its supporters and allied organizations.
Mr. Singh also questioned the Saffron party over its policies of ‘die-hard nationalism’ and ‘zero tolerance’ loudly proclaimed by it in the past.
He said that by promoting Sajjad Lone, the BJP had not only comprised with its age-old philosophy but betrayed the collective sentiment of Dogras who gave it 25 seats on the strength of its slogans of giving a Jammu base Chief Minister.
“By sponsoring Sajjad Lone as the Chief Ministerial Candidate, the BJP had admitted its political bankruptcy and its unmitigated lust for power thereby losing its leftover steam and sheen in its political bastion,” he alleged.
Describing BJP leaders as ‘Jai Chands’ of Jammu, Mr. Singh said that Governor expose would serve as the last nail in the coffin of the Saffron party with people giving it a befitting reply in the days to come.
