In a surprising turn of events, National Conference leader and former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister, Farooq Abdullah, sparked debate by invoking “Jai Siya Ram” during a press conference, revealing that he had not received an invitation to the upcoming Ram Temple consecration ceremony in Ayodhya on January 22.

Abdullah’s comment, “BJP will come to you during elections and say ‘Jai Siya Ram’, but they haven’t built the temple. It happened due to God’s will,” has added a new layer to the ongoing political narrative surrounding the grand inauguration.
The revelation comes amid broader discussions during the press conference, where Abdullah expressed his support for the Supreme Court’s recent verdict on the Bilkis Bano gang-rape and murder case. He voiced hope that the Gujarat government would promptly act to bring the convicts to justice.

Reflecting on historical aspects, Abdullah credited his father, Sheikh Abdullah, for Jammu and Kashmir’s integration into India. He boldly stated, “If Sheikh Abdullah wasn’t there, Jammu and Kashmir would never have become a part of India.”

Looking towards potential governance, Abdullah outlined his party’s commitments, promising access to drinking water for every household and emphasizing job creation for local youth.
Refuting allegations of collusion with terrorists, Abdullah asserted, “We are Indians and will die as Indians. We didn’t join Pakistan.” He highlighted the sacrifices made by his party, citing numerous worker assassinations and even an attempt on his own life.

Concluding on a note of justice, Farooq Abdullah reiterated his support for the Supreme Court’s verdict on the Bilkis Bano case, expressing the hope that the Gujarat government would swiftly act to bring the perpetrators to justice in the wake of the court’s decision. The call for justice in the high-profile case added a poignant touch to the multifaceted discussion during the press conference.
