JAMMU: Reacting to BJP leader Arun Jaitley’s statement in the Rajya Sabha that Jammu and Kashmir was not the private property of any single family (an obvious dig at Omar’s family), the chief minister said: “Would Jaitley be so kind as to inform Parliament whether the Gujarat Home Minister or MOS Home resigned or even offered to in 2002!”
“3 unfortunate deaths – 1 Hindu, 2 Muslim & we’ve a judicial inquiry with my Minister resigning. Would the BJP care to recount 2002 response,” the chief minister tweeted.
“Oh that’s right they can’t because their star PM hopeful waited days to call out the army & has yet to apologise. Hypocrites.”
Omar Abdullah had earlier tweeted Monday: “I have received Sajad Kichloo’s resignation asking to be relieved of his responsibilities pending the outcome of the judicial inquiry.”
“I am forwarding the same to the hon. governor with the recommendation that it be accepted.”
Declaring that he had done no wrong, he said he is “deeply hurt” by the allegations levelled against him in the Kishtwar incident, where three people were killed and several others were wounded since Friday.
“Did Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi resign after Godhra riots, what happened to Amit Shah in Uttar Pradesh?,” he said.
