Prime Minister Narendra Modi attacked the Abdullahs, Muftis and Gandhis, claiming they had ruined J&K and alleging the three political families had promoted terrorism in J&K for seven decades “only to keep their ships running.” But terrorism is drawing its last breaths in the Union Territory, he said.
Addressing a massive public rally at Doda, in Jammu division, Modi said a new leadership emerging in Jammu and Kashmir would replace dynastic rule.
“The stones used to attack security forces will make a new J&K now. Terrorism is breathing its last in J&K,” Modi said. “Terrorism was encouraged by the three families. There was curfew as soon as the sun set. The home minister of India was scared to go to Lal Chowk,” he said, adding that “enemies of the nation” took advantage of the three families. Thousands of children lost their lives, the PM said.
Modi said, “The three families have corrupted J&K. You were made to struggle for small things. Govt jobs were given only to those affiliated with the families. They looted your land. Dynasty politics has hurt J&K politics.”
“They gave govt jobs to only those linked to them, besides preparing the ground for separatism and terrorism,” the PM alleged.
“This time, assembly election will decide the future of Jammu and Kashmir, which has remained the target of foreign powers since Independence,” he told the gathering.
“Not only this, dynastic politics made this beautiful region hollow from within, he said, adding, "The political parties you trusted never cared for your children. They only cared for and projected their children and did not let new leadership grow.”
“We will make a white paper on Kashmiri Hindus. BJP is making efforts to bring back Kashmiri Hindus to the Valley. This change has not been brought by Modi, it has been done by you, the people of J&K,” he said.
