Watching ‘Kashmir Files’ More Important For BJP MLAs Than Attending Assembly: Maha Min

Mumbai: Maharashtra Minister Jayant Patil alleged that the BJP MLAs attended a screening of ‘The Kashmir Files‘ film while the Assembly was discussing matters during its Budget session.
The Water Resources Minister alleged in the Assembly that it seems that watching the recently released film is more important for BJP MLAs than discussing issues related to the development of the state.
He was apparently referring to a special show of the much-loved Hindi film based on the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from the Valley in 1990, organized by BJP leader Kripashankar Singh here on Tuesday evening.
The NCP minister made the remarks while replying to a discussion on the demand for grants of six departments.
At the end of his reply, Patil said only two opposition MLAs were present in the assembly, which was in the budget session.
“There are no members on the opposite benches except two. Hence, one would notice the faith the opposition has in these departments,” Patil said.
“The Kashmir Files was more important and the issues concerning the state’s development are not that important is what I have realised,” he alleged.
“So, I congratulate these two (MLAs who were present) for making the sacrifice by not watching ‘The Kashmir Files’,” he added.
