JAMMU, Aug 9: It was on this day in 1953 that the then Wazir-e-Azam of J&K Sheikh Abdullah was dethroned and arrested. The charge against him was that he had flirted with the United States with a view to getting Kashmir separated from India and converting it into "Switzerland-type independent Kashmir".
JL Nehru got removed this Kashmiri leader from the political scene when convinced that he had become a threat to national unity. This was the Congress of those days.
Today's Congress is not that Congress. In fact, it cannot be termed Indian National Congress; it should be called Sonia-Rahul Congress as they play all the shots and all others follow their diktats faithfully believing that if they questioned any of the action of their bosses, they would be shown the door.
That today's Congress is not the Congress of 1953 or that today's Congress is an altogether a new outfit professing a perverted ideology could be seen from the fact that Congress leader and Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad has been consistently saying that what has been happening in Kashmir is not a law and order issue and that the Government of India has to consider Kashmir as a political problem and act accordingly. This exactly is what Geelani, Mirwaiz, Malik and others of their ilk have been saying since decades now. By political solution to the political problem they mean the Government of India should recognize J&K as a disputed region and when they say political resolution, they actually ask India to quit not just Kashmir but the entire state.
Azad is not a leader of a regional or sub-regional party. He is leader of the Congress party, which claims that it is a national organization. His approach should have been different; not separatist-like or Omar Abdullah-like.
It appears that he has been directed by the party high command to advocate the line he has been asked to advocate in and outside the parliament and through his letters, including his latest letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Kashmir situation and Kashmir solution.
He is not alone who has been speaking the language of separatists or the language of Omar Abdullah. There are other parties as well which have been saying the same thing. Some of them include CPI of D Raja, CPI-M of Sitaram Yechury and Nationalist Congress Party of Shard Pawar. All of them are speaking in one voice; they are talking Kashmir, Kashmir and Kashmir. They have no place for Jammu and Ladakh in their scheme of things. It's unfortunate that we have a political class in the country which sides with the seditionists and humiliates the nationalists. |
