When he felt that the incumbent government then (Congress) was playing appeasement politics then he resigned from his post and founded the Bharatiya Jana Sangh. He opposed all such policies which were harmful to the unity of the country and national integrity.”
CM Yogi further said, “He played an important role in Kashmir and opposed the policies which Congress adopted in Kashmir like the permit system, and giving separate recognition to CM of Jammu and Kashmir and gave the slogan that in one country two head, two legislation won’t be accepted. His sacrifice and fight to save Kashmir and the integrity of the nation are still remembered today.”
