| JKNPP demands dissolution of JK Assembly, fresh polls | | |  Early Times Report
Jammu, Jan 21: Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers Party (JKNPP) leaders and workers today staged a protest here demanding dissolution of the Legislative Assembly and holding of fresh elections in the state.
Led by JKNPP Chairman Harsh Dev Singh, scores of party workers assembled at Exhibition Ground and torched an effigy of the central government while raising slogans against BJP.
Describing the present political situation in the state as "ripe" for dissolution of the Assembly, Singh claimed only BJP appeared to be interested in forming the government as PDP has shown its "reluctance" by not responding to any of the communiques from the Governor's House.
Even National Conference and Congress have conveyed their respective stands in the media, he added.
"There seems to be no possibility of government formation in the state. Governor's rule cannot be continued only for the reason that the political parties are indecisive with regard to the formation of government.
"If no plausible combination of political parties or alliance was coming forth to form government, the only alternative left with the Governor is to recommend dissolution of the Assembly so as to pave way for fresh polls," he said. |
