| Seek an opportunity out of current crisis, PDP to PM | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
SRINAGAR, July 24: Peoples Democratic Party has said even as the present scenario in Kashmir looked extremely dark it could still be turned around through positive and purposeful intervention. This view emerged at a meeting of party legislators, senior leaders and office bearers held here today under the president ship of party patron Mufti Mohammad Sayeed.
Party president Mehbooba Mufti and General Secretary Dilawar Mir spoke at the meeting. According to a spokesman of the party it was the general feeling among the participants during the discussion that the situation in the state had shown a steady drift and deterioration over the past one and a half years. Even as voices of caution and concern were raised no attention was paid to these in a display of arrogance and ignorance. But the party felt that even though feelings were deeply hurt, tempers ran high, governments at the centre and state had failed to respond with compassion to a highly painful situation. The situation calls immediate intervention at the level of the prime minister which could be perceived as a dignified and serious by the people in order to defuse the tension on ground. Any further delay in reaching out to the people and understanding their sentiment could make retrieval that much more difficult, it was felt.
Party leaders, according to spokesman shared the view that the people of the state and especially Kashmir valley had become victims of a callous administration that had failed to handle the situation with any empathy or compassion. The administration had been cautioned by no less a person than the prime minister himself during his June visit about its failures in addressing even the basic people's problems. Having failed in performing its duties, the government used brute force to douse the anger among masses that were forced to come out on streets. Not knowing how to respond to this crisis, the government began by discovering imaginary enemies and instead of putting its act together used more force to silence protests which led to the worst human rights disaster resulting in scores of teenage deaths even as cases of fake encounters, disappearances, killings by 'unknown gunmen' and random atrocities kept stalking the land.
