- 5 years ago
Raking up a controversy which has potential of dividing Jammu and Kashmir on religious and regional lines ahead of the Assembly elections, a senior Congress minister in Omar Abdullah’s coalition government Wednesday asked why there cannot be a Hindu chief minister in the state.
“Where in the Constitution it has been written that a Hindu from Jammu cannot become chief minister of the state?’’ Minister for Public Health Engineering Sham Lal Sharma asked while addressing Congress youth workers at a rally in Akhnoor, organised on the occasion of birth anniversary of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi.
Raising the Hindu card in the Muslim majority state of Jammu and Kashmir, he asked why a Hindu cannot become chief minister here “when A R Antulay can become chief minister of Maharashtra which has only 2 per cent Muslim population”.
