JAMMU: In a fiery press conference at the BJP headquarters in Trikuta Nagar, Jammu, BJP spokesperson Dr. Abhijeet Singh Jasrotia launched a blistering attack on the INDI Alliance MLAs for creating chaos in the J&K Assembly over the Waqf Amendment Act. Flanked by Dr. Pardeep Mahotra, Media Incharge J&K BJP, and party leader Amit George, Dr. Jasrotia accused the alliance of deceiving the very people who voted them to power.
"Since this Gath Bandhan government has failed to deliver in the past six months, they are resorting to diversion tactics to avoid accountability on core issues," Dr. Jasrotia asserted. He described the uproar in the Assembly as a "planned conspiracy" to distract the masses from matters of public importance.
Citing Article 252 Clause 2, he defended the Waqf Amendment Act passed by Parliament, saying the matter is currently sub judice and that disrupting Assembly proceedings over it is a blatant misuse of taxpayers' money. “This is a betrayal of public trust. These MLAs are wasting time and resources instead of addressing real issues faced by people,” he added.
Dr. Jasrotia questioned the silence of these parties’ MPs during the Parliamentary debate on the Act and condemned their theatrical protests in the J&K Assembly as attempts to misguide the public. “Why didn’t they raise objections in Parliament? This drama is meant to cover up their failures,” he said.
He also accused the alliance of harming the interests of Pashmanda Muslims, who rely heavily on the ongoing tourist season. “Do they want to snatch away the livelihoods of those operating Shikaras and Rehris?” he asked, challenging opposition leaders to highlight any real welfare measures taken for marginalized Muslim communities.
Targeting parties like the NC, Dr. Jasrotia reminded them of the unfulfilled promises made in their election manifesto. “For seventy years, they fooled the people with empty slogans. The same is being repeated now,” he said.
He further called for legal action against those disrupting the Assembly and questioned the effectiveness of the Waqf Board in terms of delivering on educational and healthcare infrastructure, scholarships, and pensions.
Referring to the *Sachar* Committee report, he said it exposed the hollow claims of these parties regarding Muslim welfare. “Just like they misled the nation on CAA and NRC, they are doing the same now,” he added, naming even a former Deputy Speaker among those “fooling voters.”
Dr. Jasrotia concluded by accusing the INDI Alliance of double standards, pointing out that the same *Act is proposed to be adopted in Kerala*, where they are in power. “These parties mold laws to suit their vote-bank politics,” he said.
