Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday termed the People’s Alliance for Gupkar Declaration, a conglomerate of political parties in Jammu and Kashmir, an “unholy global alliance” and alleged that along with the Congress, it wants to take Jammu and Kashmir back to the era of terror and turmoil. Shah said Jammu and Kashmir has been, is and will always remain an integral part of India and the people of the country will no longer tolerate an unholy ‘global gathbandhan’ against India’s national interest. Kashmir parties slam Shah Former Jammu and Kashmir chief ministers Mehbooba Mufti and Omar Abdullah hit back at Amit Shah over his ‘Gupkar Gang’ remarks. Alleging that the BJP government is playing divisive politics, Mehbooba said the “BJP’s stale tactic of dividing India by projecting themselves as saviours and political opponents as internal and imagined enemies is far too predictable now.” “Love jihad, tukde tukde and now Gupkar Gang dominates the political discourse instead of like rising unemployment and inflation,” she said.
