Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers (JKNPP) Party today accused BJP of indulging in "unscrupulous practices to lure" PDP for forming a government in the state.
"The BJP seemed to be desperate for cobbling up once again with its ex-ally by hook or by crook without realizing the trauma which the people of Jammu were going through," JKNPP Chairman Harshdev Singh told reporters here.
"The saffron party has indulged in unscrupulous practices to lure' PDP for forming a government in the state," Singh said.
He charged that "returning to power" was the only objective of the BJP as it was conscious of its eroding mass base in the region due to persistent acts of "betrayal, treachery and subterfuge".
Singh said since the PDP was reluctant and had expressed its antipathy to form the government, BJP was allegedly resorting to horse trading, offering allurements and other corrupt practices to woo its former partner.
