Kashmiri Pandits accusing BJP of making “scapegoats”

TIL Desk/National/Srinagar-Accusing the BJP of making Kashmiri Pandits “scapegoats” in the ongoing unrest to “realise” its Kashmir dream, a Kashmiri Pandit organisation on Tuesday said the party was “punishing” the community for its lineage to Jawaharlal Nehru.

“The BJP is punishing Kashmiri Pandits for their lineage to Jawaharlal Nehru and using them as baits, scapegoats to realise the so-called Kashmir dream without understanding the ground realities of Kashmir,” said President of Citizens for Peace and Harmony, King Bharati.

He said the attitude of the BJP towards Kashmiri Pandits indicates that the party “wants to punish innocent Kashmiri Pandits” for the “blunders” committed by Nehru simply because he was a Kashmiri Pandit. “Kashmiri Pandits are threatened on daily basis by posters and threat letters,” he claimed.
