As the Congress and the Jammu and Kashmir National Conference (JKNC) forge a pre-poll alliance in the Union territory, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has raised questions about the grand old party. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has raised questions about the Congress party’s decision to form a pre-poll alliance with the National Conference, which proposed a dialogue between India and Pakistan in its election manifesto.
CM Yogi said that elections have been announced, which is not only important for the people of the UT but also for all Indians. He said, “The Congress, which is led by the INDI Alliance, has formed a coalition with the Abdullah Family National Conference and has once again presented its anti-national agenda before the country.”
Raising questions about the Congress party, the UP CM said, “Recently, the National Conference released its manifesto… This alliance of Congress and National Conference raises many important questions about national security and their loyalty to the Indian Constitution.”
CM Yogi questions Rahul Gandhi
He also questioned Congress Party leader Rahul Gandhi on one of the 12 guarantees in the National Conference manifesto, which calls for starting trade across the Line of Control. The Uttar Pradesh minister said, “I want to ask Congress leader Rahul Gandhi whether the Congress supports the National Conference’s announcement to have a separate flag for Jammu and Kashmir… Do the Congress Party and Rahul Gandhi support the National Conference’s decision to start trade across the Line of Control and support terrorism and its ecosystem from across the border?… The Congress should respond to this…”
Omar Abdullah calls for dialogue between India and Pakistan
Notably, the Uttar Pradesh CM’s comment comes after NC leader Omar Abdullah on August 19 released a manifesto in Srinagar and said, “We said that we would encourage it (dialogue between India and Pakistan)… We have always been in favour of dialogue, and in future also we will continue to be in favour of it… As a responsible party, and being in the government, we will do everything in our power to encourage such dialogue… What is wrong in encouraging a dialogue?”
