| After losing power NC want to be kingmaker: PDP | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Jan 14: Peoples Democratic Party on Wednesday out rightly rejected the offer of support to form the state govt from National Conference and even went to label it 'power hungry' despite shown the exit door by the electorate in the 2014 Assembly polls.
Without wasting any time National Conference too decided to hit back terming the PDP a party which has taken too many u-turns to cling on to the power.
PDP, which has emerged as the single largest party with 28 seats in the House of 87 members, made it clear that the offer of support was not acceptable to it.
"The people have voted against the National Conference in the elections and with just 15 seats, they (NC) cannot decide on the Government formation," PDP Chief Spokesperson Naeem Akhtar told reporters in Srinagar.
He said people have voted for change in Jammu and Kashmir and an alliance with the National Conference would amount to disrespecting their desire.
Attacking NC, he said, "Having realized that they cannot be the King, they (NC) want to be the Kingmaker now."
NC, in turn, said its offer was limited to outside support and attacked PDP, saying it was "ready to make every possible compromise and U-turn to come to power".
NC general secretary Ali Mohammad Sagar pointedly targeted PDP patron Mufti Mohammad Sayeed, accusing him of "lording over countless massacres and being the architect of repression in the state".
Insisting that NC was not interested in being a part of government, Sagar said that "unlike" PDP, his party is "guided by principles and a political ideology that is rooted in the aspirations and sentiments of the people."
While slamming PDP, Sagar said, "We have put our ideology over the lure of power, something that quite understandably seems inconceivable for a party like the PDP which is ready to make every possible compromise and U-turn to come to power in the State. |
