Congress accuses BJP of disregarding Jammu region

Congress today accused the BJP of being biased towards Kashmir region and betraying the sentiments of Jammu people.
"Jammu people don't need any proof of BJP's new status of being Kashmir-centered party," senior Congress leader and Cabinet minister Sham Lal Sharma said while addressing election rallies in Akhnoor today.
"They are in a political honeymoon with separatists whose hijacked agenda they are pursuing in their lust for power. The party (BJP) has sabotaged the nationalist forces and have caused damage to Jammu, the only bridge between Kashmir and India," he said.
Sham accused the BJP of betraying the people of Jammu, saying, "They are now totally changed and have betrayed the people of Jammu they are even hesitant to mention Article 370."

He said the BJP had also not spoken on the issue of the resettlement of the Chamb refugees and the displaced people from the Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
The BJP has a hidden political agenda. "They shall bargain with Hurriyat Conference and separatists to hold talks with them on their secessionist demands," he alleged.
