Wani, a former JKPCC chief, launched a scathing attack on the NC during his election rally, saying“NC's flag is red because it is stained with the blood of Kashmiris, especially the people of Banihal”.
However, Karra said the Congress disassociates itself from such statements and condemns the use of such language.
“We have great respect for late Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah and Farooq Abdullah, who is one of the most senior and respected political leaders of J&K.
