Reacting to Omar Abdullah's statement on Afzal Guru, BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad questioned the Congress party's silence on the matter.
He said, "Who was Afzal Guru? Was he involved in terrorist activities or not? Were innocent people killed or not? ... Why is the Congress party silent on it?... I want to tell Congress that Kashmir has changed. Tricolor flutters at Lal Chowk... There is development in J&K... The public knows that they were looted in the name of terrorism."
