Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) chief Ghulam Ahmed Mir and spokesperson Ravinder Sharma have been kept under house arrest by Police. The incident has evoked a strong reaction from Congress President Rahul Gandhi as he asked when this ‘madness’ is going to end.
“I strongly condemn the arrest of our J&K PCC Chief, Shri Ghulam Ahmed Mir & spokesperson, Shri Ravinder Sharma in Jammu today. With this unprovoked action against a national political party, the Govt has delivered democracy another body blow. When will this madness end?” Gandhi said in a tweet.
Congress Leader of Opposition in Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad also condemned the state government’s action of arresting Ravindra Sharma.
On one side the State and Central Govt are asserting that Jammu is normal and people are celebrating, while at the same time the leaders of opposition parties are not even allowed to address the press conferences,” Azad said in a statement.
