Balakot attack: Farooq Abdullah accuses BJP of doing 'drama'

Slamming the BJP, National Conference patron Farooq Abdullah on Wednesday said that its leaders staged a drama of attack on Jaish-e-Mohammad camp in Pakistan's Balakot. "BJP government has changed three RBI Governors and they created drama of attack on Pakistan and claimed 300 people were killed, but no one got killed. Only some trees were damaged. Thank God, the (IAF) pilot returned back safely," Abdullah said while addressing a gathering here.

"We have atomic bombs. Pakistan too has it. Prime Minister Narendra Modi does only drama to show country... India is not for only one religion, it is for all religions. We have more than 22 crore Muslims in our country," he added. Abdullah went on to allege that "Ram Madhav came with money and gave some supporters here to create RSS on Kashmir."

The former Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir and former Union Minister further advised Modi to follow former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee's ideology to make "better relations with Pakistan". (ANI)
