Senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said on Friday that the Narendra Modi-led government will ensure that Jammu and Kashmir gets rid of the “corruption clan”.
The union minister for minority affairs said that Jammu and Kashmir is demolishing the “web dynasty” and has been marching towards a path of inclusive development.
"Prime Minister Narendra Modi led-government has ended the 'corruption of clan' from the corridors of power of Delhi and now it will make Jammu and Kashmir free from 'corruption of clan', Naqvi said at an election meeting in Srinagar’s Balahama area, adding that for his party, secularism is not a "definition of vote politics".
"It is the determination for inclusive development. The Modi era is an era of 'Iqbal' (authority), 'Insaaf' (justice) and 'Imaan' (integrity) where inclusive development, security and prosperity of the country are of the utmost priority," the minister said.
“After several decades, the people of Jammu and Kashmir have become an equal partner in transparent democratic and development processes,” Naqvi claimed.
He alleged that the "dynastic politics" had deprived the people of the union territory deliberately of their constitutional rights as well as mainstream development.
"Now, the BJP is committed to take the Union Territory forward on the path of prosperity," he said.
The BJP leader reiterated his party’s claim that the “Gupkar Alliance” is a conspiracy against India and its national interests.
"The alliance is trying to create confusion among the people of Jammu and Kashmir but they will not succeed in their attempt. The people will never accept any such alliance which wants to throw Kashmir back into the quagmire of separatism and terrorism," Naqvi said.
