"Bundle Of Lies": National Conference On Minister's J&K Situation Remark
NDTV
Denouncing the "absurd chicanery" of Nirmala Sitharaman, the National Conference asked if the situation was that good, then why has the footprint of forces increased in Kashmir.
The National Conference on Thursday denounced the claims of Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on "changed ground situation" in Jammu and Kashmir as "a bundle of lies" to whitewash the "devastating" impact of the Centre's August 5, 2019 decisions on the people and economy of the erstwhile state.
In a joint statement, NC's Members of Parliament Mohammad Akbar Lone and Hasnain Masoodi asked the Union finance minister which yardstick she had employed to gauge the development and growth parameters in Jammu and Kashmir.
The MPs said the minister gloating on the Kashmir situation is "a bundle of lies" which is belied by the prevailing ground situation in the Valley.
They said the ministers in the incumbent dispensation at the helm of affairs in Delhi have been "outlandishly lying to whitewash the devastating outcome" of the August 5, 2019 "unilateral and undemocratic decisions" of revoking J-K's special status.
