Srinagar Aug 8: Terming BJP MP and Kashmir Committee Chairman, Ram Jethmalani, a “broker” between Mufti and separatists, National Conference, on Wednesday said that PDP and BJP are the two faces of the same coin.
 “Jethmalani’s mask of credibility has slipped and it is now clear that his mission is to drum up support for Mufti” the NC Spokesman Tanvir Sadiq said in a statement.
 “Now it is proven beyond doubt that this BJP MP has no love for the Kashmiri people or their cause, he is here for the furtherance of their agenda to abolish article 370 with the help of Mufti,” added Tanvir.
 “Our Additional General Secretary Dr Mustafa Kamal stands vindicated when he says that Mufti and PDP are the creation of BJP, RSS and other communal forces,” he said.
 “The fact that a BJP MP had come all the way from Delhi to garner support for the PDP shows where their loyalties lay and how anti-Kashmiri the PDP, BJP and now their new found friends are,” said Tanvir.
 “These unfolding of events exposes Mufti’s desperation in the face of the government’s continued success at all fronts that he has to get a BJP MP and other people to lobby for support from the APHC,” said Tanvir.
 “These events and the recent Pakistani flag shows indicate how desperate and worried he is,” he added.
 The NC spokesman lashed out at the separatist camp saying, “It is shameful that they (separatists) interacted with a broker like Jethlmalani whose sole aim is to get Mufti on the power saddle.”
 “The people have a right to know whether they have rendered sacrificed to strike a deal between Mufti and APHC. Their discreet silence is proving as such,” Tanvir remarked 
  “The separatists and the so called proponents of Azadi should come clean on the reported deal between them and Mufti,” said Tanvir.
 “We demand that all the people who have met BJP MP and others who according to news reports have come here to strike a deal between the APHC and PDP should come clean on this and let the people know if they have sold their conscience” he added.
