“The Government of India brought the refugees here. We did not bring them. They have settled them here, and as long as they are here, it is our duty to provide them with water and electricity. This is our responsibility”, Abdullah told reporters during a visit to Kathua.
His remarks come a day after the BJP termed the settlement of Rohingyas and Bangladeshis in Jammu city a major “political conspiracy” and demanded a CBI probe to identify those involved in facilitating it.
