Omar Abdullah slams BJP for ‘excuse’ on Leh violence, says Congress too weak to stir riot
Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah strongly criticized the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for blaming opposition parties over recent clashes in Leh. Abdullah dismissed the BJP’s claims that the Congress was responsible, calling the party “too weak” to instigate any kind of unrest in Ladakh. He argued that instead of pointing fingers, the BJP should reflect on its own governance and policies that have created growing discontent in the region. Abdullah highlighted that Ladakh has faced neglect since it was carved out as a Union Territory, with local voices increasingly ignored. He also expressed concern that the government is avoiding accountability by using political excuses. According to him, the BJP’s repeated attempts to shift blame only expose its failure to address real issues faced by the people of Leh. Abdullah urged for constructive dialogue and fair treatment to resolve tensions peacefully.
