NC projects itself as only alternative to handle Kashmir Centre pays no heed, says no to Governor's rule in JK 9/17/2016 11:34:35 PM Early Times Report Jammu, Sept 17: Despite working overtime to project itself as the only alternative to handle Kashmir, the opposition National Conference has not succeeded in convincing the Centre to impose Governor's rule in Jammu and Kashmir. Sources told Early Times that NC has intensified the campaign to ensure that present JK government led by PDP is dismissed and Governor's rule is imposed in J&K. "A few NC leaders were seen hobnobbing with BJP leaders in Delhi a few days ago and were trying to convey it to them that National Conference is the only party which can rule Jammu and Kashmir," said a source. He said that a few NC leaders have got it conveyed to the central BJP leadership that NC knows how to deal with people of Kashmir. "In 2010 when NC was in power it crushed a bigger uprising than the present one by tracking and arresting the separatists who were behind the unrest that time. This time around the PDP led government is clueless about who is calling the shots and who are the people issuing the calendars and orchestrating the street protests," a source quoted NC leader as having conveyed to the BJP leaders in New Delhi. Insiders revealed that BJP central leadership has not paid much heed towards the noises being made by the National Conference. "The BJP leadership has assured the Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti that she has got full support of the central government, and there is no such proposal to impose Governor's rule in Jammu and Kashmir," they added. Sources claimed that besides NC, Congress and Panthers Party too are pitching for imposition of Governor's rule in the state. "A few Congress leaders have urged the Prime Minister Narendra Modi to explore the options vis-à-vis restoring peace in Kashmir." It is in place to mention here that JKNPP activists, led by their chairman Harshdev Singh had staged a protest at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi, a few days ago, the protesters were demanding that central government should impose Governor's rule in JK. Sources said that a few political parties are getting stories planted in the section of the media about Centre mulling to impose the Governor's rule in JK. "This is being done to create confusion in the minds of people and to create rift between the PDP and BJP, two coalition partners in Jammu and Kashmir," they added. A politician said, "At present the priority of the central government is to restore peace in Kashmir Valley. People sitting in New Delhi know it very well that NC is desperate to somehow become relevant again and the other parties which are demanding the imposition of Governor's rule in JK have no locus standi in JK and are indulging in mere rhetoric. There is no possibility about Centre imposing Governor's rule in JK."   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
