Karachi, Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge has openly criticized the Indian government under Prime Minister Narendra Modi for betraying the people of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir. This accusation highlights ongoing political tensions and concerns regarding the region’s administration and security.

According to Kashmir Media Service, Kharge, in a statement on social media platform X, condemned the Modi government’s actions in occupied Jammu and Kashmir. He asserted that the government had consistently failed the people of the territory, implying a breach of trust and neglect of their needs and rights.

Kharge also touched upon the broader implications of these policies on national security and strategic interests, especially in the wake of the Galwan clash. This incident, which occurred in June 2020, saw a violent confrontation between Indian and Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley of the Ladakh region, resulting in the death of at least 20 Indian soldiers and injuries to over 70.

His comments reflect the complex and multi-layered nature of the issues facing the region, linking internal governance challenges with broader geopolitical concerns. The statement underscores the contentious political discourse surrounding the administration of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir and its implications for regional stability.
