Early Times Report Jammu, Mar 25: Worried over the unexpected political scenario in Jammu region, the B-team of Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) has started spreading hatred against Maharaja Hari Singh, terming him killer of over 6 lakh people in Jammu division. The unofficial head of BJP's B-team has expressed his displeasure over the stand taken by his own party by not contesting Lok-Sabha polls on both seats in Jammu as he failed to convince his party high command to field him as party candidate for Udhampur Lok Sabha seat. He termed Maharaja Hari Singh as the killer of over six lakh people in Jammu. "Since he has joined active politics, he has not uttered a single word against the BJP MLA from his native constituency in erstwhile Doda district", sources said, adding that he is actually a "close friend" of the BJP legislator, and has helped him in one way or the other. He unsuccessfully contested 2014 assembly elections and only secured few thousand votes, which ultimately helped his friend to reach the Assembly. Later his friend became a minister. "He has been strongly pursuing his actual masters' to convince his party high command to contest elections on Udhmapur seat to divide the votes on basis of religion so that candidate of A-team could be benefited", source claimed, adding that his property details of this B-team leader are enough to expose what he gained through his hidden deals with A-team. This leader is known for his notorious activities aimed at dividing people on communal lines, and this time he has attacked Maharaja Hari Singh, who was considered as visionary, progressive and secular rulers in princely states across India. "His remarks have hurt the sentiments of Jammuites, and Dogras. The A-team, which claims to represent the sentiments of the Dogra community has remained silent over such mean remark against the Maharaja", they added. "The remark came at a time when scion of Maharaja is contesting from Kathua-Udhmapur seat, and this scion was earlier in the party of this B-team's leader, but at that time he was silent", they said challenging the dubious credential of this B-team's head.
