NEW DELHI: Congress’ Rahul Gandhi lashed out at PM Narendra Modi on Wednesday, accusing govt of failing to arrest the perpetrators of terrorist attacks in J&K’s Reasi, Kathua, and Doda on June 9, coinciding with the Union Council of ministers’ oath-taking ceremony.
Rahul posted on X, “(PM) is so busy responding to congratulatory messages that he is unable to hear the cries of families of the pilgrims killed brutally in J&K.The country wants an answer. Why haven’t those behind terror attacks been caught in BJP’s regime.”
Congress’ media and publicity department chairman, Pawan Khera, stressed that while Union ministers were taking oath and heads of states were visiting the country, India suffered a horrific terror attack in Reasi when terrorists fired upon a bus carrying pilgrims from Shiv Khori Temple to Katra.
“Did the victims not deserve a word of sympathy from the self-proclaimed ‘divine’ PM? Modi is busy posting responses to congratulatory tweets by Pakistani leaders — Nawaz Sharif and Pak PM Shahbaz Sharif. Why has he maintained a stoic silence?”
Khera also alleged, “BJP’s hollow claims of the return of peace and normalcy in J&K have been thoroughly exposed. Their ‘Naya Kashmir’ policy is an abject failure as BJP doesn’t bother to fight polls in the valley.”
