Jammu, January 1(Scoop News) – The leader of the BJP Legislators Party, Prof. Chaman Lal Gupta today alleged that Congress is most communal party in the country operating in the garb of secularism as its leadership had cheated the nationalist India by accepting the communal partition of the country in 1947, and later on they granted separate status to Jammu and Kashmir under communal considerations under Article-370.

In this regard, he pointed out that till recently the Congress in general has been accusing the BJP of being communal but interestingly in this malicious song even the NC, moreso, the fundamentalist Hurriyat Conference too, have now joined the chorus. While the Congress had been instrumental in granting the so-called Special Status to Jammu and Kashmir under Article-370 of the Indian Constitution and the NC has been taking advantage of it to distance this state from rest of India, now the leaders of the Jamat-e-Islami including those of the Hurriyat Conference (G) have joined hands in this song that BJP is communal but for opposing any move for greater Autonomy, Self-Rule and that of Azadi. The BJP leader described it a significant development.
He recalled that while this obnoxious Article-370.was being inserted in the constitution as a Temporary Provision the nationalists including Muslim patriots like Moulana Hasart Mohani had opposed this move but the then Prime Minister and Congress leader Shri Jawahar Lal Nehru had pacified them by saying that this was a temporary measure and it would Gheste Gheste Ghass Jai Gi (whither away with the passage of time) but it was ridiculous the Congressmen are still not only retaining this temporary provision even after over 60 years but also trying to mislead the people by stating that this provision also applied to some other parts of the country. And thus, they are either making fool of themselves or trying to befool others but every body knows this Article-370 pertains to only
The BJP leader also alleged that by taking advantage of this Article-370, the ruling leaders have been playing foul with the democratic rights of the people and indulging in regional discrimination against Jammu and Ladakh, and making mockery of the whole democratic process and rights of the people.
He asked the Congress and its allies to explain that how this so-called special status had benefitted the people of the state and what are the grounds for retaining this separate position, which, Prof. Gupta maintained, is the root cause for numerous problems in this part of the country for which the entire country is paying a heavy price.
Arun Khanna, Suraj Parkash Kohli, Rajni Sethi, Bakshi Hari Singh, Mohan Lal Gupta, Hari Krishan Ghai, Dr. K.D. Gupta and Ashok Gandhi were present in the meeting.
