"What does he want to solve?" BJP's Kavinder Gupta hits out at Omar Abdullah's remarks on Afzal Guru

Srinagar (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], September 7 (ANI): Reacting to Omar Abdullah's remarks on Afzal Guru, BJP leader Kavinder Gupta asked, "what does Omar Abdullah want to solve."
Gupta further accused Abdullah of seeking support from terrorists.
Former Deputy CM of Jammu and Kashmir and BJP leader Kavinder Gupta said, "After all, what does Omar Abdullah want to solve? If anti-national elements who hatched a conspiracy against India are given the death penalty, why do they object to this? They want to create a situation by taking support from terrorists. They are taking support from terrorists; that is why he is speaking such language."
Earlier, regarding the execution of Afzal Guru, Omar Abdullah clarified that the Jammu and Kashmir government had no involvement in the process. He stated that if state approval had been required, it would not have been granted.
"The unfortunate thing was that the J-K government had nothing to do with Afzal Guru's execution. Otherwise, you would have had to do it with the permission of the state government, which I can tell you in no uncertain terms would not have been forthcoming. We wouldn't have done it. I don't believe that any purpose was served by executing him," Abdullah said.
Notably, these developments have come ahead of the assembly polls in Jammu and Kashmir.
Assembly polls in the territory will be held in three phases on September 18, 25 and October 1.
There are a total number of 90 assembly constituencies in Jammu and Kashmir, out of which 7 seats are reserved for SCs and 9 seats are reserved for STs.
According to the Election Commission of India, Jammu and Kashmir has 88.06 lakh eligible electors. These are the first assembly elections to be held in Kashmir after the abrogation of Article 370. (ANI)
