Sajad Lone Slams NC Over Parliamentary Performance, Offers Support on Waqf Legislation

Srinagar, Apr 4, KNT: Peoples Conference (PC) chairman Sajad Lone has launched a scathing attack on the National Conference (NC), questioning its effectiveness in Parliament while extending full support for any proposed legislation on Waqf matters in the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly.

In a post on X, Lone assured unconditional backing for any Waqf-related bill introduced in the Assembly. “If NC has any such intentions, we will support it,” he wrote.

However, he did not shy away from criticizing NC’s role in Parliament, calling its performance weak and submissive. “Can they answer one simple question? Why was their delivery in Parliament so lacklustre and apologetically servile?” he asked.

Lone further stressed that Jammu and Kashmir, as the only Muslim-majority region in India, needed stronger representation at the national level. He lamented that NC’s parliamentarians failed to raise their voice effectively, stating, “They should have roared like lions, not meowed like cats.”
