BJP's attempts to politically own air strikes condemnable: Harsh
3/3/2019 10:44:42 PM
Early Times Report
Ramnagar, Mar 3: Accusing the BJP of trying to market the Armed forces achievements as its own, Harsh Dev Singh JKNPP Chairman and former Minister today cautioned the saffron brigade to refrain from drawing political mileage out of the exploits of the brave Indian soldiers. He said that while the credit for execution of successful air strikes goes to the IAF and military brass who had risked their lives by undertaking counter terror operations against Pak, the attempts of BJP leadership to politically own such air strikes were highly deplorable rather sacrilegious. He condemned in particular the statement of Karnatka BJP which said that surgical strikes would redeem BJP and catapult their party to the top position in the coming elections. Likewise, he added, the loud chest thumping exercise by BJP and using surgical strikes to attack opposition could prove counterproductive. He said that such kind of posturing would not only demoralize our forces but give highly disturbing signals to world community that all such exercises are being undertaken for vote bank politics. He was addressing public meetings in Kougha, Kaghote village of Ramnagar constituency today. Addressing the gathering, Harsh Dev Singh said that BJP which was voted to power in the Country and the state had failed to realize its grandiloquent promise of 'Achey Din', good governance, development, employment opportunities, literacy, poverty alleviation, etc and was only indulging in rabble rousing and hollow rants for political game. Taking a pot shot at the BJP, Mr. Singh said that the Saffron Brigade was busy politicizing the Indian Army's surgical strikes across LOC on 26th February by trying to draw political capital out of the same. He said that Indian Army had been carrying out such strikes earlier as well. While citing examples of Army's valour, he revealed that in August 2011 a deadly tit for tat surgical strike under 'Operation Ginger' was carried out by Indian Army across the LoC in Kupwara which left 8 Pakistani soldiers dead and while returning back it brought 3 enemy heads against the two Indian martyrs.
