PDP patron alleges Cong made Guru a scapegoat to stop BJP

PDP patron Mufti Mohammad Sayeed on Wednesday alleged that former Congress-led UPA government at the Centre used Parliament attack convict Afzal Guru as a scapegoat in its failed bid to stop the rise of BJP at the national level.

“Congress played a counter-communal card in its failed bid to stop the rise of BJP at the national level and they used Afzal Guru as a scapegoat,” Sayeed said while addressing an election rally in Dooru assembly segment of south Kashmir.

The Peoples Democratic Party leader said Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, who owed his “survival” in 2010 and 2011 to Congress, readily agreed to hanging Guru out of turn in a manner that does not do any good to the image of the country as a secular democracy where rule of law is supreme.
