The Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers Party (JKNPP) today accused the Mehbooba Mufti-led PDP-BJP government of failing to conduct a fair and transparent investigation into the rape and murder case of a minor girl in Kathua district, saying the "unholy alliance" was fomenting trouble to score political gains.
While it asked the BJP ministers to resign from the state cabinet, the JKNPP also hit out at the ruling alliance for "failing to deliver good governance" and flaring up tension with a design to polarise electorate.
"The BJP-PDP government has failed in conducting fair and transparent investigation in Rasana child homicide case. The BJP has double standards over this rape and murder case," JKNPP Chairman Harshdev Singh told reporters here.
Singh lambasted the saffron brigade for "colluding with the PDP in persisting the crime branch probe in one hand and on the other, pressing upon its second line of leaders to protest against the move."
