Jammu, June 22

Former J&K minister and senior BJP leader Choudhary Lal Singh on Friday said the previous Mehbooba Mufti government was the “worst-ever” dispensation in the state and more damage would have been caused had his party not pulled out of it.

He said the “unilateral ceasefire” announced in view of the holy month of Ramzan was the “biggest mistake” as it had allowed terrorists to regroup to dent the morale of security forces.

“It’s not good to impose Governor rule in a democratic set-up. But when the situation is deteriorating by the day, it’s the only option left. This (PDP-BJP) government was the worst the state has ever seen,” Singh told reporters. He hailed BJP president Amit Shah for taking the “right albeit late decision”.— PTI
