PM Modi, Mufti used threat of nuclear annihilation as some sort of PUBG game: Omar

National Conference vice-president Omar Abdullah on Monday said the threat of nuclear annihilation was not like a PUBG game where one can hit the reset button to restore normal life.

He criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi and PDP presidentMehbooba Mufti for their remarks. Omar was reacting to Modi’s speech at anelection rally Sunday in which he had said that India’s nuclear bombs were notkept for Diwali.

   

Responding to PM Modi’s statement, the PDP presidentMehbooba Mufti earlier Monday said Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal were not for EId.”Whether Diwali or Eid, both PM Modi & Ms Mufti have used the threatof nuclear annihilation as some sort of PUBG type game where they can just hitthe reset button & life will carry on. Both of them would be well served toremember #Hiroshima & #Nagasaki when issuing such threats,” Omar saidin a tweet.

The PM Modi Sunday said, “India has stopped gettingscared of Pakistan’s threats. I did right, didn’t I? Else every other day, theyused to say ‘we have nuclear button’, our newspapers would also say the same,then what do we have? Have we kept it (nuclear button) for Diwali?”

Reacting to it, Mehbooba said in a tweet, “If Indiahasn’t kept nuclear bomb for Diwali, it’s obvious Pakistan’s not kept theirs forEid either. Don’t know why PM Modi must stoop so low & reduce politicaldiscourse to this.”

Responding to online criticism of her statement, the PDP president said it was disturbing that Mahatma Gandhi’s India was baying for blood. “To be trolled for it by RW (right-wing) is amusing & baffling. Does one have to be enthusiastic about nuclear war to earn the credentials of a true patriot? Disturbing that Gandhi’s India is baying for blood,” she said.
