Scrapping Art. 370 more harmful than separatists: MBT
Chanchalguda: Describing the Jammu and Kashmir as an integral part of India, the MBT on Tuesday held that the BJP's narrow Hindutva political agenda would do more harm to the issue than the extremist and separatists have done for decades.
In a media statement, Amjedullah Khan, spokesman of MBT, described this as BJP's 'politics of post truth' to suit their agenda and felt that scrapping of Article 370 would definitely help Pakistan rework on victimhood sentiments of Kashmir people which will further promote alienation.
"Post Truth politics of Amit Shah on Article 370 stands exposed and calls for a National Debate on the role of Pandit Nehru and Sardar Patel in drafting Article 370 for better understanding of historical facts for present generation to decide the future.
BJP which does not have any history of its own in nation building, is just trying to cash on fault lines by clinging to the statue of Sardar Patel. MBT challenges BJP for a national debate on any BJP sponsored tv challenge on the role of Sardar Patel in drafting article 370," he stated.
