PDP trying to fill separatists’ shoes? | Party back in its original avatar, out to vitiate the fragile peace | | Early Times Report
Jammu, July 21: As Jammu and Kashmir is limping back to normalcy, PDP is back in its original avatar, declaring government’s developmental agenda a “mere eye-wash”. The statement that PDP spokesman issued on Tuesday brought to fore how the party has finally decided to break lull and make its vicious stand public. The statement was instigative in nature, spilling beans about how much PDP is hellbent to vitiate the already fragile peace in Jammu and Kashmir. “The urgency with which the administration has gone for illegal, undemocratic and unconstitutional lawmaking like that of domicile and the recent one of designating areas as strategic is reflective of its only priority in Jammu & Kashmir,” the statement said. The party which otherwise is in doldrums due to being deserted by its senior most leaders is making every possible attempt to hog headlines by resorting to such underhand means. The rhetoric which the party seems to have adopted is reflective of the strategy it is going to adopt in order to hoodwink people and toe the separatist line. “The party is trying to fill in the space left by the separatists in Kashmir who are silent and have their lips sealed. Sensing opportunity, the PDP is trying to fill that gap,” said a scribe based Srinagar and working for a New Delhi based newspaper. On October 30, 2018 then Jammu and Kashmir Governor admitted that when Mehbooba Mufti was the chief minister of the J&K, the recruitment of militants witnessed a spike and stone-pelters also found it easy to attack the security forces. “I have not gone to Jammu and Kashmir with the BJP’s band wagon. I will work as per the constitution and as far as the previous government in the State is concerned, there must have been some reason that the support from the PDP was withdrawn. And I admit the fact that while Mehbooba Mufti was the chief minister the militant recruitment increased and stone pelters too got away easily. And what we are reaping at present is what the coalition did in J&K but at that time the ones who were sharing power should have objected. Today, I am not answerable to their wrongs,” the then J&K Governor Satya Pal Malik had said in an interview. |
