Early Times Report Jammu, Apr 2: After maintaining silence over anti-slogans raised by leaders of coalition partner National Conference and undeclared partner PDP, Congress in its election manifesto has tried to appease separatist and anti-national forces. In its manifesto released this morning by senior leaders Congress ignored issues pertaining to Jammu and Ladakh regions. Congress's manifesto is confined only to appease anti-national elements. Instead of promising to take effective steps to curb terrorism in J&K, Congress, in its manifesto has rather pledged to review the Armed Forces Special Powers (AFSPA) and rework troop deployment in Jammu and Kashmir, besides abolishing the provision of sedition in the IPC, easing rules for bail, and limit the powers of the probe agencies to search, seize and arrest.
