Former chief minister Omar Abdullah on Thursday criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi for “surrendering to “China, Pakistan and its proxies” by delaying the state assembly elections.
Taking to micro-blogging site Twitter, Omar said: “PM Modi surrendered to China on Azhar and surrendered to Pakistan & its proxies by delaying elections in J&K. How can the BJP claim to have been tough on internal security and tough against terror?” Omar Abdullah said in a tweet.
Omar also hit out at senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and Union law minister Ravi Shankar Prasad over his comment on Rahul Gandhi, who had criticised PM Modi for being “scared of Xi”, the Chinese President.
“Mantri jee, your Government gave Pakistan a small victory when you postponed the Anantnag by-poll in 2017 and a big victory now that you’ve failed to conduct assembly elections. If anyone is giving Pakistan a reason to celebrate it isn’t @RahulGandhi. Look closer to home sir,” Omar said in another tweet.
