Sunil Sharma claims PM Modi ensured equality in J&K

In a recent session of the Jammu and Kashmir legislative assembly, opposition leader Sunil Sharma sparked strong reactions from the ruling party members. During a discussion about budgets for various departments, Sharma emphasized the oath taken by members post-Independence, calling it a significant step towards equality after the revocation of Article 370. Sharma criticized the budget presented by Chief Minister, claiming it failed to address the needs of youth and the poor. He labeled the budget as a betrayal and a disappointment for citizens hoping for change. His comments praising Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP were met with disapproval from the treasury benches, leading to tensions in the assembly. As Sharma continued his speech, calls for order were ignored, and the session became chaotic. Legislators from the National Conference (NC) and the Congress engaged in heated exchanges with BJP members. AAP MLA Mehraj Malik contributed to the uproar, resulting in confrontations between members of different parties. Chairman Mubarak Gul attempted to restore order but struggled to manage the rising tensions. Meanwhile, BJP members approached Malik aggressively as marshals tried to intervene. The situation highlighted the deep divisions and passionate debates within the assembly over the new budget and political policies.
