Early Times Report

Jammu, Mar 15: Although the session of the Parliament is going on, opposition parties of J&K failed to finalize a date to approach national leaders.
During the all-party meeting held on March 11, it was decided to approach national leaders to mount pressure on the Union Government to conduct assembly elections in J&K.
Sources said that except announcement nothing concrete has been done in this regard due to a lack of consensus among all opposition parties.
“Being a national party, Congress will take permission from high command before giving consent to become part of the opposition group”, sources said and added that Peoples’ Democratic Party is not ready to become second fiddle to the National Conference as far as approach national parties are concerned.
Opposition parties announced after the all-party meeting that they will reach out to the national opposition leadership and approach the Election Commission of India (ECI) to press for elections in the union territory.
An all-party meeting was held at the residence of National Conference (NC) president Dr. Farooq Abdullah in Jammu’s Banthindi which was attended by several regional opposition parties including Congress, People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Communist Party of India (Marxist), and others.
The former chief minister in a press conference held after the meeting told reporters that the issues concerning the region including the property tax, encroachment drive, students’ protest against blacklisted Aptech, and the current political situation of J&K were discussed.
“Everyone put forward their point of view to bring the region out of the problems. We witnessed how the strike called by the traders in Jammu has emerged explaining how bad our situation is,” Dr. Abdullah said.
The NC president added that the parties have decided to go to Delhi to meet national leaders to inform them about the problems faced by the people of the region.
“Both the Prime Minister and the Home Minister claim that there is normalcy in Jammu and Kashmir and there are preparations going on for G20 meeting then why can’t let the elections be held,” Abdullah said.
Dr. Farooq Abdullah added that they will also go before the election commission with the support from national leaders to advocate for elections.
