BJP is uniting Kashmir but these three families had a role to play in the torture that Kashmiri Hindus had faced: Modi in Srinagar

"...The three families think that it is their birthright to capture power by any means and then loot you all. Their political agenda has been to deprive the people of Jammu and Kashmir of their legitimate rights. They have given only fear and anarchy to Jammu and Kashmir but now Jammu and Kashmir will no longer be in the grip of these three families...Now our youth here is challenging them. The youth whom they did not allow to progress have come out against them. The suffering that the youth of J&K have faced in the rule of these three families, is often not able to come out. Today, many of the youth of the valley who are 20-30 years old, have remained deprived of education. There are many who took more years than the rest of the students of the country to reach 10th, 12th or college.
