Rahul blames Pak, NDA government's politics for Uri terror attack

Mati (Kanpur rural): Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi on Monday accused Pakistan of being responsible for the Uri terror attack while apportioning blame on the NDA government's "politics" for it.

"The first responsibility is on Pakistan and the government's politics," he told reporters referring to the attack on the brigade headquarters near the Line of Control in Uri in which 18 soldiers were killed.

The Congress vice president said while the UPA government spent nine years fighting terrorism and curbing it, the BJP-PDP alliance has "opened space" for terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir.
