The people cannot be misled by these parties, as they have tested them for decades together. “Allegations by opposition that BJP Ministers are enjoying in Srinagar, are false because the ministers are attending the assembly session and not there on picnic”, Shamsher said and added that infact majority of the leaders of opposition have fled Jammu but entire leadership of State BJP is in winter capital.
