Early Times Report

Jammu, May 16: After a lull of one month, politics again heated up in Jammu and Kashmir over the movie “The Kashmir Files”.
Within minutes after National Conference president and former Chief Minister Dr. Farooq Abdullah argued that the much talked about the movie -“The Kashmir Files” has fuelled violence in Kashmir Valley, BJP was quick to attack him for his argument.
The former Union Minister observed that this movie has created hatred among different sections of society.
Dr. Farooq once again demanded a ban on the film “The Kashmir Files”. “We have met Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha to raise the issue of the law-and-order situation in Jammu and Kashmir. During the meeting, I told him that the film 'The Kashmir Files' has given birth to hatred in the country. Such things (films) should be banned. It should be banned”, the former Chief Minister told media persons.
Pointing toward one scene of the movie, he asked, “is it true that a Muslim will kill a Hindu and put his blood in rice and tell his wife that you should eat this…can it be, are we turned animal” He further said, “this movie is a baseless film, which has not only has created hatred in Kashmir but in the country. Hate has arisen about this among our youth too”.
“NC leader Dr. Farooq Abdullah's irrational bid to establish a connection between the movie ‘The Kashmir Files’ and the ghastly killing of Rahul Bhat in Valley shows that the former CM of J&K has lost his mind and there is no need to pay heed to his illogical statements”, says former Deputy Chief Minister Kavinder Gupta while addressing a press conference.
Kavinder said that The Kashmir Files and the horrendous act of terror are two different issues but to find the lost political space for his party, Farooq Abdullah is leaving no stone unturned and in the run-up to this he doesn’t even mind giving absurd and illogical statements which have no relevance or connection with the grave situation which today the Kashmir Valley is confronting badly.
He said that NC chief and former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah’s demand to ban the movie ‘The Kashmir Files is illogical.
It is pertinent to mention that the NC chief has claimed that the movie is spreading hatred and that is the only reason behind such barbaric killings in Kashmir.
