“Do you want BJP to win?” Akbar Lone asks militants

SRINAGAR — National Conference leader Akbar Lone has said that militants should not harass or threaten his party workers unless they want BJP or ‘anti-Kashmir’ forces to win the Parliamentary elections.

“Do you want a BJP man or somebody who is against Kashmir cause to represent Kashmir in the Parliament? Then why harass or threaten our workers,” he said at a rally.

Lone had recently stirred up a controversy by raising pro-Pakistan slogans during an election rally.
