Because of Modi’s mistakes Kashmir is on fire: Rahul Gandhi
Congress President Rahul Gandhi on Monday said Prime Minister NarendraModi had made “mistakes” on Jammu and Kashmir, as a result of which the state is “on fire”.
Addressing a public meeting here, Gandhi also alleged that the ‘One-Rank, One-Pension’ scheme has not been implemented so far and the Prime Minister was speaking “lies” on the issue.
He said a couple of days back, a delegation of ex- servicemen met him and said they had trusted Modi over OROP but were “disappointed” now.
The Prime Minister “claims that OROP has been implemented. He speaks lies. OROP has not been implemented so far. Modiji claims but ex-servicemen said it was not executed,” the Congress leader said.
Referring to Jammu and Kashmir, he said the state was “on fire” right now, apparently referring to the latest killings in the state by the militants.
The Modi government “opened the doors of J&K for militants. No politician was martyred in J&K but army men are laying their lives there because of Narendra Modi’s mistakes,” Gandhi said.
