Omar Abdullah J&K Assembly Speech |"Shame On Me If…": J&K CM Won’t Use Pahalgam For Statehood Push
Sending a strong message in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack, Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah said his politics is not so "cheap" that he would use this tragedy as an opportunity to press for his government’s demand for statehood.
"Jammu and Kashmir is currently not the elected government’s responsibility. But I don’t want to use this as an opportunity to demand statehood. How can I use the Pahalgam tragedy to ask the Centre for statehood? Is my politics so cheap? Do I value these 26 lives so little? We have spoken about statehood earlier and will do so in the future. But shame on me if I go to the Centre and ask for it now. At this point, no politics, no business rules, no statehood. This time is only for the strong condemnation of this attack and heartfelt support for the victims," he told the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly during a special session.
At one point, when some members started tapping the benches to praise the Chief Minister’s speech, he stopped them. "Not today, we will tap the benches some other day."
