Jan Sangh founder was illegally detained, murdered in Kashmir: Amit Shah | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, June 23: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday said that the founder of Bharatiya Jan Sangh Dr. Shayma Parshad Mookherjee was illegally arrested and murdered in Srinagar jail. Paying tributes to the founder of Bharatiya Jan Sangh (BJS), Dr Shayma Prassad Mookherjee on his death anniversary, Shah said that Dr. Mukherjee was illegally arrested in 1953 for entering into J&K without a permit. Amit Shah was addressing a rally at Jammu. Dr. Mookerjee, founder of the Jana Sangh, and the forerunner of the BJP passed away in a prison cell in Jammu and Kashmir after he was detained for forcibly entering the state, defying the then law making it mandatory for an Indian to furnish a permit to enter Kashmir. More than five decades after its founder Shyama Prasad Mookerjee gave the clarion call for not allowing two Constitutions, two Prime Ministers and two flags in one nation, in reference to Jammu and Kashmir, the Bharatiya Janata Party has ticked that box. “It was ironic that a former Union Minister was arrested for entering one of the states of India without a permit. Why need a permit for entering one’s own country? he asked and added that the founder of BJP was jailed and later assassinated. Shah said, adding that today the “soul of Dr. Mookherjee will be resting in peace as his mission and vision of Ek Vidhan, Ek Nishan, and Ek Pradhan stands fulfilled with the abrogation of Article 370. The Home Minister said that Dr. Mookherjee was the first to oppose the inclusion of Article 370 into the Indian constitution on the pretext that “one nation can’t have two flags, two constitutions, and two heads.” “On August 5, 2019, Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a big step and abrogated Article 370 forever and fulfilled the vision of Dr. Mookherjee,” Shah said, adding that if West Bengal is with India today, it was due to the vision of Dr. Mookherjee. |
