Former chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir and People's Democratic Party chief, Mehbooba Mufti, said on Sunday that embracing Taliban-ruled Afghanistan while targeting Muslims of India is a stark reminder of the internal hypocrisy of the BJP-ruled Centre.
Mufti's remarks were made in the wake of the visit of Afghanistan foreign minister Amir Khan Muttaqi and the Centre's initiatives to normalise ties with Kabul.
"In the name of 'love jihad', 'land jihad', 'vote jihad' and 'cow jihad', BJP has repeatedly targeted its own Muslim population, propagating narratives that demonise them. At the same time, India, the mother of democracy, under the BJP has decided to embrace Taliban, the harbinger of jihad," Mufti wrote on X.
She said India has chosen to extend all kinds of aid to rebuild Afghanistan, including offering educational scholarships to Afghan students.
