J-K govt will resign if charges of diverting sugar are proved:

Jammu and Kashmir Agriculture Minister G N Lone today said the state government would resign if opposition Congress was able to prove its allegation that sugar meant for public distribution in the Valley was diverted to poll-bound Anantnag.
As soon as the Assembly met, Congress MLA Nawang Rigzin Jora informed the Speaker that there were allegations that sugar meant for public distribution through CAPD outlets has been diverted to Anantnag Assembly constituency.
Anantnag Assembly constituency is going to bypoll on June 22 and Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti is seeking election from the seat represented by her father Mufti Mohammad Sayeed.

At this point, the Agriculture Minister intervened.
"If he can prove it (charge), this government will resign. You are levelling baseless charges," Lone said.
Jora said he was raising the issue in the House as it had been reported in a newspaper.

He was supported by National Conference MLA Ali Mohammad Sagar who said it was the job of the government to prove the allegations wrong.
"Whether the report is true or not, it is your job to prove it," Sagar said.
The issue had been raised by NC MLA from Homshalibugh, Abdul Majeed Larmi on Wednesday in the House.

"We want to know from the government whether it has diverted the sugar meant for distribution in other constituencies of Anantang district to the Assembly segment where the Chief Minister is a candidate," Larmi had said.
