Senior BJP leader Sofi Yousuf on Wednesday issued a strong warning, saying he would leave the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) along with nearly one lakh workers if any attempt is made to separate Jammu from Kashmir.
He made these remarks while speaking to party workers on the sidelines of a BJP convention, where leaders and members had gathered to discuss organisational strength and current political issues in Jammu and Kashmir. Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel
Reacting sharply to a recent statement by BJP leader Sham Lal Sharma, Sofi Yousuf called the remarks irresponsible and harmful to regional unity. He said such statements send a wrong message and can disturb public harmony.
“Jammu and Kashmir is an indivisible entity. Any move, statement, or agenda aimed at dividing Jammu from Kashmir will not be tolerated,” Sofi Yousuf told the gathering.
“If such an attempt is made, I will not hesitate to quit the BJP along with one lakh dedicated workers,” he added.
Meanwhile, BJP General Secretary Anwar Khan also addressed the convention and strongly criticised the National Conference government led by Omar Abdullah.
Anwar Khan accused the NC government of repeatedly failing the people of Jammu and Kashmir. He said the party had betrayed public trust and failed to protect the interests and aspirations of the region’s people.
“The Omar Abdullah-led NC government has a record of broken promises and political opportunism,” Anwar Khan said. He claimed that public dissatisfaction has increased due to what he described as double standards and empty assurances.
Both BJP leaders stressed the importance of unity, peace, and regional harmony. They urged all political parties to avoid statements that could hurt public sentiment or weaken the social fabric of Jammu and Kashmir.
