"The alliance between PDP and BJP in Jammu and Kashmir is unholy and this is going to finish the whole of BJP in the country. It will benefit Congress in the long run," Kaul told PTI here.
The writer, who was displaced from Kashmir long back has penned a number of books including "Kashmir ka Jihadi Aatank: Sampurna Bhart par Prabhav" (Jehadi Terrorism in Kashmir: Its impact on India) arrived here to take part in a seminar "Jammu Kashmir: Kal, Aaj aur Kal" jointly organised by Dhrampal Shodhpeeth and Spandan.
"The situation in Jammu has worsened further. Earlier we used to get water three days in a week, but now only once. Besides we used to get power for nearly 10 hours but now just four hours. The roads are full of potholes and none is bothered about it," she alleged.
Kaul also alleged that the BJP leaders who are in power in the state don't listen to the people.
"There is no Forum left where we can raise our voice or be heard," she said.
"Fact is that it can be abrogated by the President simply by passing an ordinance," she claimed.
