Cong on defensive mode after Azad’s startling disclosure

Early Times Report

Jammu, Dec 13: A day after former Chief Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad made a startling disclosure about links of some former ministers of the PDP-Congress regime with terrorists, Congress is on a defensive mode to counter such allegation.
Although the Congress high command has immediately deputed J&K party chief Vikar Rasool Wani to counter his former political mentor, the party is still in a fix because allegations made by Azad would be proved disastrous for the party in the next assembly elections.
Azad’s allegations are so serious that it would provide ammunition to the BJP to launch an offensive against Congress all over the country.
Important to mention here that Azad made a startling disclosure during an interview with a TV channel that as a Chief Minister of the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir he had sent a report to the then Prime Minister of India Dr Manmohan Singh and Union Home Minister, Shivraj Patil about the links of some political leaders, especially ministers with the terrorists but the Central leadership took no action in this regard.
After Azad’s startling disclosures, BJP stepped up its attack on Congress for adopting a soft approach towards terrorists.
Finding it difficult to counter serious allegations of Azad regarding the nexus among former ministers and terrorists, J&K Congress on Tuesday accused the former party stalwart of playing in the hands of Sangh Parivar.
“Ghulam Nabi Azad is floating such false stories only to help BJP all over the country for the next Lok Sabha elections to damage Congress”, J&K Congress Vikar Rasool Wani said on Tuesday while launching a blistering attack on his former political mentor.
“If some of his own ministers had links with terrorists why did he as a Chief Minister maintained criminal silence?”, Wani asked and added that as head of the Unified Command, Azad had all power to take action against a person having links with terrorists.
“As Chief Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad was holding charge of the Home Minister of J&K at that time. Instead of forwarding the report to the then Prime Minister and the then Union Home Minister Azad had the authority to take action on his own”, Wani said.
