JKNPP protests, burns effigies of SSP, DC Udhampur | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Aug 6: Alleging continued victimization of the Panthers Party leaders and workers by the District administration Udhampur, a huge contingent of JKNPP led by Yash Paul Kundal State President Young Panthers besides other leaders held a protest at Exhibition Ground near Press Club Jammu seeking personal indulgence of the Governor. The protestors raised slogans against SSP Udhampur Rayees Mohd Bhat and DC Udhampur and torched their effigies. Speaking on the occasion, Yash Paul Kundal strongly condemned the brazen display of authoritarianism by SSP and DC Udhampur who were harassing, intimidating and victimizing the NPP leaders in utter abuse of their position and authority. He said that NPP leaders and activists who had exposed the massive irregularities in the functioning of District administration Udhampur besides highlighting their acts of omissions and commissions were being bullied, threatened and implicated in false cases. He pointed out that majority of the prominent NPP leaders and workers had been booked in frivolous cases by a highly prejudiced and avengeful administration as a part of personal vendetta and vindictive approach of the said officers. The NPP activists who had a clean and unblemished record were being summoned to Police stations on day to day basis so as to torture them psychologically and eventually create demoralization among the rank and file of the party as a part of a political conspiracy, said Kundal. "And whereas the NPP workers were being targeted for political reasons, the vandals and marauders owing allegiance to BJP had been given open space to execute their criminal and nefarious designs against Panthers workers. It was an extremely deplorable state of affairs wherein victims were being blamed and criminals absolved by the SSP Udhampur and which called for immediate personal intervention of the Governor. Not only that the SSP had been openly threatening to settle scores with JKNPP Chairman Harsh Dev Singh for having filed complaints against the delinquent officer which further needed due cognizance of Governor", said Kundal. Manju Singh General Secretary JKNPP admonished the DC Udhampur for his statement in the local media that he is going to ban the entry of Panthers Party in his office. "The said DC must know that the office he is occupying is not his personal fiefdom but a public office in which all political parties have a right of access. Who gave him the power and authority to close the doors of a public office for a political party which is duly recognized as a state party by the Election Commission of India", questioned Manju Singh. Urging upon the Governor to revamp the district administration, she said that such District heads of civil and Police administration posted by the previous BJP-PDP regime still continued to operate under their shadow to the prejudice of other political parties especially the opposition. She reiterated her demand for registration of FIR against SSP Rayees Mohd Bhat for threats, criminal intimidation, abuse of authority and assault on female activists of NPP inside the DC Office Udhampur. |
