As nation mourns Ladakh casualties, Mehbooba takes potshots at GOI
PDP’s proximities again come to fore

EARLY TIMES REPORT

JAMMU, June 16: At a time when the entire country is mourning the loss of an Indian army officer and two brave soldiers killed in Ladakh region’s Galwan valley, PDP president Mehbooba Mufti has all of a sudden come out of the oblivion only to taunt the Indian government.
“Seems like China has hijacked the aggressive ‘ghar main ghus ke marengay’ militaristic approach. Nation deserves to know why there is no talk of retaliation to avenge the death of three Indian army personnel! ,” tweets the former chief minister from her official twitter handle.
This was indeed ironic to find that at the time of such eventualities how was it necessary to call potshots at the government. What Mehbooba has done on Tuesday has taken the internet by storm with social media users questioning her loyalties. “One wonders whether you are an Indian and whether India is your country. If you would have been a true nationalist, you would have sided with the government instead of making hilarious tweets public,” was how one netizen expressed his views on Mehbooba’s controversial tweet.
Meanwhile, this is not the first time that PDP and its president have exhibited such a bizarre stand.
On April 22, last year while addressing people in Noorabad as south Kashmir is going for the 1st out of five phase polls, Mehboba answered on behalf of Pakistan, saying that the country hasn’t kept its Nuclear Bomb for Eid- hinting directly that Pakistan can use it against India. The PDP President was asked by the press to respond to the statement of Prime Minister Modi in which he gave clear warning to Pakistan not to use its soil against India at any cost and that India has not kept its nuclear weapons for Diwali.
As Mehbooba was ought to support her country for the stern warning to Pakistan- she did exactly the opposite- warning her own country while boosting the morale of Pakistan in an unprecedented manner.
On February 4, this year, the party issued a detailed statement in which it objected to the Prime Minister’s remark of breaking the backbone of militancy. The PDP predicted the policy will fail to yield any desired results. The party even equated the situation in Kashmir with Afghanistan and pitched for dialogue with militants again.
“We have to learn from what is happening around the world including Afghanistan where there is a thrust on dialogue and Pakistan has been counted as a major partner. Dialogue is the only way forward and it is only through non-confrontational approach that we will be able to give our coming generations a safer and tranquil place to live. Making peace of the graveyard prevalent has never worked and will never work,” party said in a statement while reacting to Modi’s Srinagar speech.
