He said that under a well planned conspiracy PDP Patron was appointed Home Minister to eliminate people of Kashmir and he along with then Governor Jagmohan succeeded in their mission, but added that now the party and loyal soldiers will give our blood to ensure that such scheming politicians bite the dust and ensure that they do not emotionally blackmail people anymore.
