| NC gripped by panic of its imminent defeat : Baig | | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, Apr 9 : Senior Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) leader and former deputy chief minister, Muzzafar Hussain Baig on Wednesday said the National Conference is resorting to provocative statements as it not satisfied with mere boycott call given by the separatists.
Addressing various workers meetings at Tilgam and Kongumdara in Pattan segment of Baramulla parliamentary constituency, Baig said the NC is now actually so much gripped by panic of its imminent defeat that it seems to be aiming at increase in violence to ensure that boycott appeal is enforced.
He said the statements issued by Mustafa Kamal and other leaders of the ruling party are a clear indication that NC is not expecting anybody to vote for it and is trying to drive the situation into boycott mode. He said people understand well the tricks of NC which have kept it in power for decades in spite of the fact that it has only damaged the cause of Kashmir and hurt the interests of people of the state.
Baig, who is the PDP's parliamentary candidate for Baramulla constituency, said the NC leadership has only increased its personal wealth, built estates within the state, in Delhi and even in some foreign countries with the money that they siphoned off the state exchequer.
He said the huge funds received for development purposes are nowhere visible in roads, power, hospitals or educational institutions but can be traced even without any investigation to the ruling politicians. This has resulted in an ironical situation where the state has become poor and is not able to pay salaries while the politicians without having ever done a job are rolling in crores. Appealing the people to vote for him in Baramula constituency and other candidates of the party Baig said the present elections provide a unique opportunity to the people of the state to throw out the corrupt and dishonest politicians.
He said the PDP has changed the political discourse in the state by making it more accommodative and representative and now the party is going to the national level to seek a new institutionalized and serious Kashmir policy.
Baig said NC MPs have never raised the issues facing the people of the state in the parliament and their only concern was to seek employment for the members of the Abdullah family but the PDP will involve the political leadership both in and outside the parliament to build a broad based consensus on Kashmir.
Addressing the meetings senior party leader Molvi Iftikhar Hussain Ansari said a big movement is building up against NC- Congress coalition ahead of the Lok Sabha polls. He said all the indicators suggest that the people of the state have decided to get rid of the corrupt and opportunistic coalition headed by Omar Abdullah.
He said there is a wave of anger against the ruling government and he expects a record turnout this time around because everybody is now aware about the policies of NC that how it has been taking over the reins of the state.
Molvi said the NC focused only on personal luxury and positions of power and never stood up for the rights either of the people who voted them. |
