“But one thing is clear that Jammu Kashmir is under direct assault from New Delhi while other parts are facing an indirect attack” Rahul thundered from the pulpit, as per news agency-Kashmir News Observer (KNO)
He said Congress party has a clear stand for Jammu Kashmir, “Statehood should be restored in full and there should be Assembly polls in a free, fair and transparent manner” Rahul said.
Replying to senior Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad’s suggestion regarding seeking a bill in the parliament to press for restoration of Statehood for Jammu Kashmir, Rahul said, “I am not allowed to speak in the parliament, I can’t speak about Raffle, unemployment and corruption. They (BJP) have attacked judiciary, Lok Sabha and even the voice of media stands muzzled, Journalists can’t write what they want to.”
He said that when there was a Congress government in Jammu Kashmir, major schemes like Udaan were launched and Panchayat polls were held. “We brought experts to Kashmir University and sent Kashmiri youth to other states of India but they (BJP) attacked this process too,” he said.
Rahul said that he can feel the pain of people of Jammu Kashmir, “My message to you is that I am with you to build a relation based on love and honour. I am fighting against PM Modi. My fight is against Modi’s ideology and violence he is preaching besides his mission of breaking India. I will continue to fight till victory” the Congress leader said as per KNO
He said Jammu Kashmir people have an age-old culture of love, honour and whatever “you want to do for people Jammu Kashmir should be based on love and honour, if you start your hatred for people of Jammu Kashmir, nothing can be achieved,” Rahul said in an obvious reference to BJP.
He said earlier, during COVID and post abrogation of Article 370, he tried to visit Jammu Kashmir, but was denied all the time,” he said.
Rahul said that he has a connection with Kashmir as his ancestors were living in Valley. “Today, my family lives in Delhi, before that they were living in Allahbad and before that, they were living in Kashmir. So I have inherited a tinge of Kashmiriyat that lies inside me” he said.
