Early Times Report
Jammu, Nov 9: The NC and the Congress denounce each other on a daily basis and holds each responsible for their declining popularity. Only a few days ago, both Ghulam Nani Azad and Saif-ud-Din Soz lambasted the NC and said the Congress is paying the price of unpopularity because it shared power with the NC. "The State Government has lost the people's confidence. The Congress is suffering because it didn't insist on the 2002 power-sharing formula," said Azad, adding that had the Congress led the Government after Omar Abdullah completed three years in office in 2013, the plight of the Congress today would not have been that miserable. As for Soz, he only the other day told reporters that "the experience of the Congress with the NC was not good". Azad, in addition, on Saturday said that the possibility of the Congress forging post-poll alliance with the PDP cannot be overruled. And he made this statement when the Congress and the NC together are still ruling or misruling the state.
It was the outgoing Chief Minister and NC working president Omar Abdullah who was the first to rebut the allegations leveled by Azad and said that the Congress couldn't repeat its 2002 performance in 2008, when the Congress was at the helm of affairs till July 2008. And the other day, it was his uncle and the bitter critic of the Congress Mustafa Kamaal, who came forward with a proposal that the NC could team with the Congress after the Assembly elections are over. "With all the differences we have, we also have areas where we have a meeting ground. We do have permanent areas of discord, but for the sake of democracy, if at all it comes to that, we will ask for help from the Congress and I am sure we will have enough numbers to dictate the things," Kamaal was quoted as saying. At the same time, he said that "the nearly six-year-old coalition between the two parties never worked smoothly". The Congress was never sincere towards the NC, he also said.
What is all this? How could the Congress and the NC abuse each other and still talk about post-poll alliance? How could the Congress first remove the PDP from power and then express the view that it would work with the PDP in case of need? How could the Congress and the NC take the people of Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh for a ride and play dubious power games? The people of the state are not fool. They are politically very mature and they understand what the NC and the Congress leadership did for power and failed them during all these six years. They will not trust them any more. They appear determined to teach them a befitting lesson for the dirty politics and dirty tricks they played to enjoy the loaves and fishes of office at their cost. It would be proper to say that the time of the Congress and the NC in J&K is up. |
