Jammu and Kashmir is placed under Governor's rule | | | If any organization is happy over the growing rift between the state unit of the BJP and the PDP, which has posed a new challenge for the coalition Government's survival, it is the Congress. The Congress plans to work out a plan for forming a grand alliance with the regional parties. The experiment which had proved successful in preventing the BJP from forming the Government in Karnataka. It is not yet certain whether the PDP will join the grand alliance. Though the PDP had shared power with the Congress in 2002 but it had not shaken its hands with the National Conference. The PDP and the NC are old political foes and hence the ties between the NC and the PDP seem to be remote National Conference vice president, Omar Abdullah, has rejected the possibility of sharing power with the PDP. He has turned down the demand for forging an alliance with the PDP. But PDP may not feel unwilling if it joins the grand alliance simply to punish the BJP, which has ditched the PDP. The BJP has ended its alliance with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pulled out of the PDP-led Jammu and Kashmir government. General Secretary Ram Madhav said: "It has become untenable for the BJP to continue in the alliance government in Jammu and Kashmir." "Under such circumstances, the BJP was left with no other option, but to pull out of the alliance," he has stated Madhav said there was a growing sense of discrimination within the other two regions of the state The BJP and the PDP have not been able to bury their inherent political differences because essentially the BJP is Jammu centric against the PDP which is Kashmir centric. The latest differences surfaced after the PDP leadership came to know that the state unit of the BJP leaders had conveyed their displeasure over the possible plan of the centre to extend unilateral ceasefire. This opposition to the extension of ceasefire was the result of BJP leaders' feeling that during the ceasefire the incidents of violence had peaked. And the killing of a Rifleman Aurangzeb and the assassination of a senior journalist, Shujaat Bukhari, were cited by the state unit of BJP leaders to impress the central party leadership about the need for saying no to extension of the ceasefire. And in all the state of Jammu and Kashmir has been placed under Governor's rule. |
