Coalition holds people to ransom by arbitrary imposition of internet ban: Harsh | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Sept 27: Lambasting the BJP-PDP coalition for its failure to uphold the rule of law in the state, Harsh Dev Singh Chairman JKNPP and former Minister today observed that the incumbent govt. has lost all moral authority to continue in office. He said that the imposition of internet ban has been perceived as an unequivocal admission on the part of coalition government that it is incapable of reining in the mischief mongers, saboteurs and offenders of law who had a free play during the course of the said ban. He deplored that while the offenders in Kashmir valley openly defied law, violated High Court orders on beef ban, unfurled Pakistan and ISIS flags, the BJP-PDP govt. remained content merely by blocking the internet services. He said that rather than apprehending the culprits, the BJP partnered govt. chose to shut its eyes and blocked the communication channels so that the sacrilegious acts were concealed from the view of the world at large. He said that while the government spokesman stated that internet ban had been imposed to check its misuse by reckless elements, the BJP Ministers came out with their often parroted statement that they were not consulted thus making a mockery of themselves. He said that BJP Ministers had once again rendered themselves as objects of ridicule by making such fatuous and idiotic statements in a situation where people of the state felt hostage and more especially when the permission for internet ban had been given by MHA headed by a BJP Minister. He further said that under the garb of misuse of internet by anti nationals, the incumbent govt. misused its powers to cover up its own incompetence and its failures to control violations of law and High Court orders. He said that while PM Modi during his tour abroad was propagating social media as a potent weapon of social change, his colleagues in J&K were a party to the obnoxious ban imposed on internet and social media. Flaying the highly reprobate decision of the govt., Singh said that it had conveyed a very misleading massage to the outside world about the security scenario in the state whose economy was largely dependent upon tourist pilgrimage. Singh further maintained that the willful withholding of information by the govt. by imposing internet ban and the admitted failure of the government to uphold the rule of law, to control the illegal, contemptuous and anti-national activities in Kashmir valley are sufficient to constitute what is termed as 'Failure of constitutional machinery in the state' as envisaged in Sec 92 of the constitution of the state. |
