BJP chief Amit Shah on Saturday justified the party's decision to walk out of Mehbooba Mufti government and accused the PDP of ignoring the interests of Jammu and Ladakh.

"PM Modi sent crores of rupees for the development of J&K, but the PDP government ignored the interests of Jammu and Ladakh. So we decided to quit the government," the BJP chief said, adding, "for us development of Jammu and Ladakh is the top-most priority." "There was a need for balanced development of the three regions in the state," he said.
