Mr Sagar said that PDP is playing a negative role over revocation of AFSPA. "In Delhi, they oppose the sincere move of Omar Abdullah to revoke AFSPA. In Kashmir they are giving an impression to people that they are advocating revocation of AFSPA. We several times advised all the parties particular PDP not to do politics over AFSPA, but they are trying to politicize the issue," he said.
