Former J&K Governor criticises PDP, national media

Former J&K Governor SK Sinha has accused the Peoples Democratic Party of playing an anti-national role and disturbing the communal harmony and peace in the state. He also accused the media of misrepresenting fact and figures and misinforming the people on the issue.
Sinha said that PDP patron Mufti Mohd Sayeed was always opposed to his endeavours towards streamlining the Amarnath yatra and he continuously put roadblocks in the work.

The Governor was speaking at a seminar on "Shri Amarnath Land Transfer -- Implications of Revocation" organised in Chandigarh by the Forum on Integrated National Security.

Accusing the national press of misleading public opinion, the governor opined that it was sad that national media was not reporting the facts but misleading the people.
He further said that separatists were trying to whip up communal frenzy by projecting the land transfer as something which could change demography of the valley.
