If PDP’s alliance with BJP was poisonous, why did Mehbooba wait to be sacked, asks Umar

Omar Abdullah, Vice President of the National Conference has said that if Mehbooba Mufti’s alliance with the BJP was poisonous then why didn’t she resign and waited for being sacked.

In a tweet Omar said:


Mehbooba Mufti, the former chief minister, during the foundation day of the PDP had said that by aligning with the Bhartiya Janata Party, she had to drink a cup of poison. 

She also mentioned that during the 2016 uprising, when pellets were being fired at the youth, she felt as if they were hitting her body.

The Opposition, time and again has accused Mehbooba of compromising everything for the sake of power, however she rejected the accusations.  “I didn’t compromise for anything during my two years of tenure as Chief Minister,” she said.

She further added, “As many times I met Prime Minister Modi, I asked him to initiate dialogue with Pakistan and Hurriyat leaders.”
