Srinagar: Jammu and Kashmir National Conference MLA and chief spokesperson Tanvir Sadiq has hit out at the Bharatiya Janata Party, saying the party must explain the delay in restoring statehood to Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, Sadiq questioned the \u201cdrama and theatrics\u201d while people were still waiting for their constitutional rights.<\/p>\n
