The solely approach you may give a convincing response to his insensitivity is by accumulating more cash and connecting with extra folks from Kashmir…He was crude, insensitive and he didn’t take into consideration the lakhs of Kashmir Hindus who have been thrown out of their very own houses, the ladies raped and other people murdered. The folks behind him have been laughing and it was shameless. That was additionally occurring within the state meeting…If he needs to have a political drawback with the Prime Minister or the BJP, he ought to have simply spoken about that.

But this film has gone beyond tax-free, it’s a movement. To rub salts on wounds of people who have suffered for the last 32 years is unbecoming of a chief minister.
