Concerted effort being made to change history of Jammu and Kashmir: Omar Abdullah
Srinagar, July 13, KNT: National Conference Vice President Omar Abdullah Thursday said that in a situation where attempts are being made to rewrite history of India, distorting the history of Jammu and Kashmir is not a big deal.
“There is an attempt to distort the history of India why would they not try to distort the history of Jammu and Kashmir? Look at the way entire textbooks are being changed, look at the way entire chapters are being deleted. The authors of those textbooks are now refusing to acknowledge that those books have anything to do with them, they want their names to be withdrawn from those textbooks because they don’t want to be associated with those books,” Omar Abdullah as per the news agency Kashmir News Trust said.
While talking to reporters he said that there is a concerted effort being made to rewrite the history of the Union and in that obviously, there is an attempt to re-write the history of Jammu and Kashmir as well. [KNT]
