Angry Omar calls former CS, Singh 'deadwood' | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Nov 8 : Targeting politicians who are leaving the party ahead of the 2014 Assembly polls angry Chief Minister Omar Abdullah on Saturday dubbed senior NC leader and former Chief Secretary of the state Sheikh GhulamRasool and younger son of Dr Karan Singh, AjatShatru Singh as "dead wood" and as "opportunists." Reacting to the media reports and adverse propaganda that Omar is fast losing its grip over the party machinery Omar late evening tweeted: "Never stops amazing me that opportunists like Ghulam Rasool & Ajat (Ajatshatru Singh) only find fault with NC & its leadership when their terms R (are) finishing." Singh, son of former 'Sadar-i-Riyasat' of Jammu and Kashmir Karan Singh, is reportedly also deserting the party and joining BJP. The chief minister said he was happy that the "deadwood" accumulated in the party by his father and NC president Farooq Abdullah was "clearing itself out". "Thank goodness some of this deadwood my father had accumulated is clearing itself out. My only regret - two wasted MLC seats for 6 years," he said. Sheikh Ghulam Rasool, former chief secretary of the State and a resident of Ganderbal, resigned from the basic membership and from the central working committee of the party on Wednesday citing "deteriorating" party affairs in his native constituency. |
