Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Friday slammed the Chief Mehboba Mufti of the People’s Democratic Party on his comment on the Tulbul Navigation Barrage Project, accused of “pleasing” some people across the border.
In response to a post by Mehboba Mufti on X, CM Omar said that the Indus Water Treaty (IWT) has been one of the biggest historical betrayal of the interests of the people of J&K. “I have always opposed the treaty and I will continue to do so,” Omar said.
“What really unfortunate is to try to score cheap promotion with your blind lust and some people sitting across the border, you refuse to accept that IWT J&K has been one of the biggest historical betrayal of the interests of the people of J&K,” he said.
