Attacking the BJP, the Kerala Congress said that Kashmiri Pandits left the Valley en masse and the governor at that time was Jagmohan, who was associated with the RSS. The exodus began under the BJP-backed VP Singh government. The tweet said that the BJP-backed VP Singh government came to power in December 1989. The exodus of Pandits began the following month in January 1990. The BJP did nothing and continued to support VP Singh till November 1990.

Responses

a- Responding to Congress’s tweet, many Twitter users have fired sharp questions .A user named Pallavi CT has written that you are behaving as if Kashmir was a paradise before 1990. Can you deny that Governor Jagmohan had been warning Rajiv Gandhi’s government of the mobilization of terrorists in Kashmir from the beginning of 1988.

b- Vijay told that Jagmohan had written to the central government that you and the people around you had neither the time, nor the interest nor the vision to see these signs. He further wrote that Jagmohan was so forthright that ignoring him was historically a crime.

c- Sumit Bhasin shared a picture of Yasin Malik with former Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh and wrote that Congress should give some clarification on this. A user named Kumar4018 wrote that such things do not happen in a day. Rajiv Gandhi was the Prime Minister till mid-December 1989. The Kashmir riots started in 1986. Then there was the government of Rajiv Gandhi.
