Rahul playing politics over my invitation: J-&K Guv
India TodayJammu and Kashmir Governor Satya Pal Malik on Monday accused Rahul Gandhi of playing politics over his invitation to visit the Valley, saying he just wanted to refrain him from making "baseless statements". "I want to make it clear that when I had invited Rahul Gandhi to Jammu and Kashmir, my intention was that he will refrain from making baseless statements about Kashmir by having the first-hand appraisal of the situation," the governor said in a statement here. Accusing Rahul Gandhi of playing politics over the issue, Malik said he arrived here along with a host of opposition leaders and said he would meet all detained leaders and interact with mediapersons. Malik said he wanted to urge Gandhi that he should keep national interest on top, rather than using the sensitive issue for his "cheap politics".
