Lend a hand to restore peace instead of scoring political points: Dr Beg to NC Says Farooq Abdullah lost 'golden opportunity' in 1996 8/25/2016 10:52:58 PM Early Times Report Srinagar, Aug 25: Strongly reacting to the Opposition's reaction on the Joint press conference addressed by the Union Home Minister and Chief Minister, Mehbooba Mufti, PDP chief spokesperson, Dr Mehboob Beg asserted that it is really unfortunate to see the principal opposition party seems to have a one point agenda, just to attack chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti instead extending a hand to restore peace. PDP chief spokesperson, Dr Mehboob Beg said, "This is a sensitive situation that Kashmir and one expects a more mature and understanding opposition at such a juncture." "Analyzing the Chief Minister's body language and making personal remarks against her only underlines the lack of sensitivity and respect that they have for the situation," said Dr Beg, while adding, "the behavior of the Opposition is painful as it shows utter disregard for the situation as well as the prevailing sentiment in the valley." "It should be everyone's endeavor to find an amicable resolution to the painful situation, keeping in view the sentiments of the people and if the Opposition has a genuine 'overnight' solution, the PDP will not come in their way," he said. Recalling from past, PDP spokesperson said, "The former Chief Minister Dr Farooq Abdullah had a golden opportunity in 1996 as it had a resounding mandate and the then Prime Minister also remarked that the Government of India would grant 'anything' short of Azaadi, what did we get out of it? "The mishandling of the 2010 situation has been acknowledged and admitted by those who were at the helm then and to indulge in mere personal attacks at a vulnerable and sensitive time like this does not look graceful," he added. Urging the opposition parties to look to contribute in a constructive manner instead of indulging in personal remarks at such a sensitive juncture, Dr Beg appealed to all Opposition parties to come-out with practical and viable feedback and to desist from settling political scores against the Chief Minister.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
