Reports of Horse trading create panic among pol parties: Harsh | | | Early Times Report Jammu, July 4: Referring to the political impasse created in the state in the wake of suspension of Assembly pursuant to breakdown of BJP-PDP govt, Harsh Dev Singh JKNPP Chairman and Former Minister today expressed concern over the reported attempts of various political parties wooing the rival legislators in a bid to form govt by hook or crook. There were reports of floor crossing amidst allurements and enticements held out to legislators of other parties, he said. Having become jittery, the political parties were trying hard to keep their flock together and to rescue their members from falling prey to the enchantants and charms of the opponents, said Singh. Accusing the BJP in particular of trying to engineer defections in other parties through support of central agencies, Harsh Dev Singh said that such bizarre machinations did not auger well for the state and could result in further alienation. And while BJP was trying to break other parties, some of its own members were in touch with congress as per authentic sources, he said. These opportunist MLAs included those who had jettisoned congress on the eve of previous elections to bask in the reflected glory of Narendra Modi at the said time but had now realized that BJP was a sinking ship and were desperate to abandon it, divulged Singh. Maintaining that suspension of Assembly was supposed to be a transitory period under the constitution in which the Governor has to decide its fate, Singh said that its prolongation was violative of law besides prevalent practices and precedents. If no political party or combination of parties was in a position to form the govt, the only option was to dissolve the Assembly so as to prevent defections, horse trading and unfair means in the formation of the govt, said Harsh. He said that with almost all political parties except BJP having conveyed their unwillingness to form govt and the reports of defections and unethical practices doing rounds each day, the dissolution of Assembly was inevitable and required immediate attention of the Governor and president of India. With BJP known for its manipulative skills and machiavellian strategies of forming govts through unethical means, the political parties in state had become jittery and rather panicky which was not good for a sensitive state like J&K, said Singh. He appealed for the indulgence of the President of India so that all speculations were set at rest and the dissolution of suspended assembly ensured at the earliest. |
