Bharatiya Janata Party on Friday accused Telugu Desam Party president and Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu of being anti-national and said his comments against Prime Minister Narendra Modi in connection with the terrorist attack on Indian soldiers at Pulwama in Kashmir amounted to sedition.
BJP leaders led by former chief secretary I Y R Krishna Rao complained to Governor E S L Narasimhan against Naidu and demanded that a suo motto case be filed against the TDP supremo.
Soon after the Pulwama attack, Naidu commented that there were doubts on the attack due to the timing before elections. His party demanded an SC-monitored inquiry into the terror attack.
“We want to know the facts behind it and the nation wants to know why the attack happened. It is intelligence and Modi government’s failure,” Naidu said.
Taking objection to Naidu’s remarks against Modi in the wake of the Pulwama terror attack, the BJP leaders demanded an apology from Naidu to the nation.
“It is objectionable that Naidu, who is holding an important constitutional position, made baseless anti-nationalistic remarks and allegations against Modi,” he said.
He said Naidu’s remarks were nothing short of sedition and an attempt to disintegrate the sovereignty of the country.
“The remarks and allegations made by Naidu are not just politically motivated. Unfortunately, such remarks and allegations at this crucicial juncture are highly unwarranted and anti-nationalistic,” Krishna Rao said.
