JKNPP fast filling political vacuum in Jammu region: Harsh | | | Early Times Report
Ramnagar, Jan 20: While BJP assisted Mehbooba Mufti in implementing a significant part of her agenda during the aborted coalition rule, it hopelessly failed to deliver on even a single promise made by it with its own electorates, said Harsh Dev Singh, JKNPP chairman and former minister. He was addressing a mammoth convention of Young Panthers organized by youth wing of the party in Ramnagar town today. The erstwhile rule witnessed the complete eclipse of Jammu related issues with both state and central govt desperately wooing Mehbooba Mufti and her Kashmir centric agenda, said Harsh. "The release of a record number of stone-pelters besides other notorious elements in Kashmir was ordered at the behest of Mehbooba Mufti as a part of her political agenda. Likewise, the declaration of unilateral ceasefire which was initially opposed by Army as well as Defence Minister was also ordered in a bid to appease Mehbooba and to promote her political agenda. Similarly, it was in the BJP-PDP government that a highly communal order with regard to the tribal settlements was issued with the saffron Ministers acting as mute spectators. Again the BJP had to eat a humble pie when PDP leadership prevailed in Rasana case refusing to honour the demand of Jammu people for CBI probe. And whereas the PDP leadership refused to budge even an inch with respect to its core philosophy, it was the BJP which made one surrender after the other and compromising eventually even the self respect and pride of Dogras", regretted Singh. Harsh Dev Singh regretted that slogan of the abrogation of Article 370 which earlier remained the major poll plank of BJP for several decades, was sacrificed immediately after the elections at the altar of power politics. And when Article 35-A was challenged, the saffron flavoured government of J&K hired five advocates in the court to defend the same, rued Harsh. He maintained that the educated youth of Jammu bore the severest brunt of unethical alliance when their routine share in employment also went the Kashmir way. |
