Reacting over Ram Madhav’s statement regarding the reasons behind breaking an alliance with PDP, Omar said, “if BJP is giving such kind of reasons then they both (PDP and BJP) are responsible for the current deteriorating situation in Kashmir.”
Saying that he was expecting the fallout of the dispensation later this year, Omar said, “I am not surprised over the fallout of the government but as I was expecting it later in the year. The only thing that is beyond my expectations is that it happened soon.”
Refusing to talk over the reasons behind the fallout of the dispensation, Omar said that “I can’t speculate it is BJP who can comment over it.”
He said that four years of alliance was only lust of power. (KNS)
