“Rahul Gandhi took a U-turn because the nation was enranged”: BJP on J&K

New Delhi | Union Minister Prakash Javadekar demanded an apology both from Rahul Gandhi and the Congress, after the latter “shamed” the nation due to his comments on Jammu and Kashmir.

Speaking to his recent tweets on Jammu and Kashmir, Javadekar said that Congress leader’s comments had been used by Pakistan in its application to the UN.

Javadekar is referring to the mention of Rahul Gandhi in the letter sent by Pakistan to the United Nations.

Addressing the media, “Rahul Gandhi today stated that Kashmir is an internal matter and violence is linked to Pakistan, a complete u-turn, why? Because the nation was enraged, they wanted him to,” Javadekar said.

“Rahul Gandhi said that things in Jammu and Kashmir were going wrong, there were reports of people dying in J&K. You were wrong, Rahul Gandhi. Things are fine in J&K, there is no violence as you imagined. People haven’t died. Pakistan used his remarks. The Pakistani application to the UN mentions remarks made by Rahul Gandhi. The application states that acts of violence have been acknowledged by mainstream party leaders such as Rahul Gandhi,” said Mr Javadekar.

Taking to Twitter, Rahul Gandhi wrote, “I disagree with this Govt. on many issues. But, let me make this absolutely clear: Kashmir is India’s internal issue & there is no room for Pakistan or any other foreign country to interfere in it”.

“There is violence in Jammu & Kashmir. There is violence because it is instigated and supported by Pakistan which is known to be the prime supporter of terrorism across the world”, he added.
