| Congress election manifesto is misleading: Prof Gupta | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Apr 5: Raising eyebrows over the provisions of Congress Election Manifesto, especially with regard to pledges about security related matters in troubled Kashmir, the former Union Minister of State for Defence, Prof. Chaman Lal Gupta said that such promises cannot be expected from a body claiming to be a national level organization.
He described it was surprising to talk about the reduction in forces as also the reviewing of the special powers of the forces and doing away with sedition laws, particularly when the men in khaki are engaged in fighting proxy war launched by the hostile neighbor because of which a complex situation has been created requiring firm step to curb the menace of separatism and enemy design across the border.
In a statement, Prof. Gupta alleged that what was sad happenings over the decades now in Kashmir, is the result of follies and blunders committed by the leaders of the parties whose decedents are trying to act as doctors without learning any lesson from their past wrongs.
The commitment to retain the obnoxious Article 370 as also the discriminatory 35-A, is ridiculous as the founding fathers of the Constitution were promised by the Prime Minister, Jawahar Lal Nehru that this was just a temporary provision and would wither away with the passage of time but it sounds strange the family ruled the roost over the decades is still pledging to retain it even after expiry of about seven decades.
And thus, providing opportunity to question the very validity of the Accession of the State to Indian Union. what can be more seditious , Prof. Gupta questioned and observed that this is the reason perhaps the Congress is aiming at do away with sedition law.
But this would further encourage the fissiparous tendencies and anti national slogans as also treacherous moves he warned and asked patriotic people to take a serious note of the election planks. Such moves of its allies who have been changing colors harming the interest of the people, moreso of the country by masquerading as secular but in practice always acting as parochial and sectarian. |
