| Omar asks PDP to enforce AoA, Mian Altaf bats for dialogue with Pak, Hurriyat | | NC's dubious role in Assembly | | Early times Report
JAMMU, June 23: The main opposition NC has been leaving no stone unturned to convert J&K Legislative Assembly into a house of break-India activities. On the eve of the budget session, the NC submitted a resolution that wanted the state government to ask the Union Government to implement its seditious autonomy committee report, but, fortunately, the said resolution will not come up for discussion because of some technical reasons.
In fact, ever since May 25, when the budget session of the state legislature commenced, the NC tried its level best to corner Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti by raking up some highly divisive and emotive issues. And on Wednesday, the NC raked up Pakistan and Hurriyat in the Assembly and also demanded implementation of the PDP-BJP agenda of alliance (AoA).
Leader of Opposition and NC working president Omar Abdullah - apart from attacking the Mehbooba government's policy towards those who hoist Pakistan and ISIS flags on everyFriday in Srinagar and other places and accusing her of not booking the Jammu youths who lodged a strong protest against the police in the aftermath of terror attack on a religious place in Jammu - asked the Chief Minister if she would or she would not implement the PDP-BJP agenda of alliance. As a matter of fact, he insisted on implementation of the agenda of alliance.
"I raise question over the delay on its (AoA) implementation. Don't try to justify the delay by saying that your (Mehbooba) government is only two months old. Your party is in power for more than a year now and we will seek answer from you," he said in the Assembly.
What has Omar Abdullah to do with the AoA? It was an arrangement between the PDP and the BJP and it is for them to work or not to work on the AoA. AoA is not a government document. Nor does it form part of the constitutional and political arrangement in the state. By insisting on its implementation, Omar Abdullah is only exposing his intellectual bankruptcy and establishing that he and the NC do not have any agenda of their own.
It was not only Omar Abdullah who spoke out of context. Former controversial forest minister Mian Altaf also exposed himself. He batted for a trilateral dialogue between India, Pakistan and Hurriyat.
"The situation wouldn't improve in J&K until talks are held with Hurriyat and those who are fighting in the state. If you (Government of India) wouldn't hold talks with Hurriyat and others (in this case obviously Pakistan, which terms J&K an unfinished agenda of partition), situation wouldn't improve in the state," Mian Altaf said while speaking in the Assembly on grants of the departments under Mehbooba Mufti.
What Mian Altaf and Omar Abdullah said on the floor of the Assembly was nothing but a desperate attempt on their part to remain somewhat relevant in Kashmir politics. It was also an attempt to remain in the news and nothing else. |
