Congress leadership committed several betrayals on J&K issue: RSS leader

India Today  

Senior RSS leader Arun Kumar on Wednesday said the top Congress leadership committed a series "betrayals" on the Kashmir issue in the early years of independence. When Maharaja Hari Singh said that Pakistan was planning to attack and he was running out of weapons, then home minister Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel called a meeting of the cabinet committee on defence on October 2, 1947, and a proposal was passed to immediately send weapons to the Maharaja, the RSS leader said. After the accession of J&K, the Maharaja who had agreed to merge with India was "sent away from the state", the RSS leader alleged. "The greatest betrayal in Jammu and Kashmir happened with Maharaja Hari Singh when he was exiled from J&K," he said.
