BJP leaders protest, seek apology<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jammu, Feb 10: Chief Minister Omar Abdullah\u2019s remarks in the Jammu & Kashmir Assembly on Tuesday triggered protests from opposition BJP legislators, who demanded an apology for what they termed \u201cobjectionable words.\u201d<\/p>\n

Winding up the discussion in the Legislative Assembly on the budget, as per news agency\u2014Kashmir News Observer (KNO), Chief Minister Omar Abdullah said the Indo-US trade deal was detrimental to the interests of the people of J&K.<\/p>\n

\u201cHere, a few of my friends talked about the Indo-US trade deal, although it is not part of the budget. I am unable to understand how it is beneficial to the people of J&K. You may have protected seafood from Kerala and some other products. You have allowed the entry of tree nuts-walnuts and almonds-which are products of Jammu & Kashmir, at zero duty. You have also put dry fruit on the list at zero duty. You have told America to send fruit at zero duty, and we will purchase it. You made a deal on walnuts and almonds, but you should have at least protected apples,\u201d the CM said.<\/p>\n

The Leader of Opposition objected to the remarks, triggering an exchange of heated arguments between the two sides.<\/p>\n

The CM said, \u201cThey themselves call it the Indo-US trade deal. If you translate it, \u2018deal\u2019 means \u2018souda.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

As BJP legislators continued with protests, the CM said their attitude has changed and it seems \u201cInka Home Minister Ke Aate Atte Joote Pade.\u201d<\/p>\n

The remarks triggered fierce protests from BJP legislators, who demanded that the Chief Minister apologise for his comments.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is unparliamentary language. He should apologise for these remarks,\u201d the BJP legislators shouted.<\/p>\n

The Chief Minister continued his speech while BJP legislators tried to disrupt him with slogans.<\/p>\n

Unfazed by the protests, the CM went on with his speech and concluded it. (KNO)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
