JAMMU: In another controversial statement, former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah on Sunday claimed that both India and Pakistan are equally “involved” in each other’s “tragedies”.
Raking up the past, Abdullah said that India did not divide Pakistan by taking Bangladesh.
“Our neighbour has its own hates. They think we have divided Pakistan by taking Bangladesh. We were not dividers. The tragedy was in the country itself. It was not our creation. That is the tragedy we still face,” said Abdullah.
He went on to say, “And don’t say we are not involved in their tragedy. As much as they are involved in our tragedy, we are also involved in their tragedies. It’s not one-sided.”
