"Farooq Abdullah is instigating youth in Kashmir (by his remarks). He should lead the younger generation of militants," said BJP's state spokesperson Virender Gupta.
He was referring to Farooq's Friday statement that dubbed the present turmoil in the Valley as new generation militants' “fight for freedom”.
Gupta lashed out at Farooq, lamenting that such a provocative statement has been made by a person who has been the chief minister of the state and a Union minister too.
The BJP spokesperson said the NC president is speaking out of “sheer frustration” as his party and his son Omar Abdullah were dethroned by the people "because of their malpractices, corrupt administration and anti-people policies."
He said Farooq's outburst is aimed at recovering the lost ground to contest the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections.
He added that after the 1974-75 Accord between Indira Gandhi and Sheikh Abdullah that installed National Conference in power, the fight for Azadi and Farooq Abdullahs support to it becomes absurd.
BJP state General Secretary Narinder Singh, meanwhile, said the Jammu-based NC leaders should clear their stand on what their president has said.
