Omar Abdullah 'missing' for 10 days, BJP slams CM's foreign trip

The BJP has launched a poster campaign against J&K CM Omar Abdullah, alleging he has been 'missing' for 10 days on a foreign vacation. Leader of Opposition Sunil Sharma slammed the CM's absence amid a severe water and power crisis in the state.

Amid BJP's poster campaign against Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, BJP leader and Leader of Opposition in the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly Sunil Sharma on Saturday alleged that the people here are struggling with a water crisis and power outages, and "CM Sahab is enjoying a vacation abroad".

The BJP leader further alleged that there has been no news of CM Omar Abdullah for the last ten days. "I am going to say something serious without involving politics. The people of J&K are worried about where their CM is. If a CM visits anywhere, the public and media generally have an idea about it... We have not seen our CM for 10 days now. There are so many problems here to be solved, and the CM is nowhere to be found... We have decided to file a missing report if he still does not appear in 1-2 days," Sharma, the BJP MLA told ANI.

BJP's Poster Campaign

This comes after the BJP on Friday shared missing posters of Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, while pointing out his absence from the state in the last ten days.

"The people of Jammu and Kashmir are searching for their Chief Minister, who has been missing for the past 10 days.
