| NC colluding with BJP to keep PDP out of power in J&K: Mehbooba Mufti | | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, Nov 18 : Accusing the National Conference (NC) of colluding with BharatiyaJanata Party (BJP) to keep her party out of power in Jammu and Kashmir, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) President Mehbooba Mufti urged people to stop the saffron party's invasion of Jammu and Kashmir in connivance with its allies. "Seeing a mass wave building in favour of the PDP across Jammu and Kashmir, NC leaders have started conniving with everybody including BJP and RSS to keep us out of power," the PDP President said while addressing a series of election rallies in the north Kashmr district of Kupwara. Referring to former Member of Parliament (MP) MehboobBeg's decision to resign from NC and provide unconditional support to PDP, Mehbooba said even some right-thinking NC veterans have of late realised that only a seasoned leader like PDP patron Mufti Mohammad Sayeed has the capability and political wherewithal to face-up to the dangerous divisive designs of BJP in Kashmir. Mehbooba said the people of the state have resolved not only to reject NC but the pocket-sized politicians as well.
"That is why most of the NC veterans have started rallying behind the PDP's pro-J&K agenda aimed at safeguarding the state's distinct political and constitutional status," she said. She said the people of the state have resolved not only to reject NC but the pocket-sized politicians as well, who are being propped up in selective constituencies for fragmentation of votes.
Taking a jibe at NC over Chief Minister Omar Abdullah's decision to quit Ganderbal, Mehbooba said NC has already conceded defeat as its chief ministerial candidate fled from his family political bastion. Mehbooba said PDP has been able to inspire confidence among people in all the regions of the state about its ability to solve multiple problems faced by Jammu and Kashmir on political, economic, administrative and financial fronts.
"With a decisive mandate in upcoming elections, PDP will carry forward its agenda of political resolution, good governance and employment generation and convert Jammu and Kashmir into a real welfare state," the PDP President said. "It is being widely acknowledged today that the party had, under the leadership of Sayeed, pioneered revolutionary political, economic and developmental initiatives during its brief stint in the government between 2002 and 2005, the signposts of which are visible in every nook and corner of the state," she said.
Accusing the NC leaders of using slogans like 'Azadi', 'Raishumari' and 'Autonomy' in the past with good results for itself and trying to bank on rhetorical catchwords of 'Article-370' and 'AFSPA' in their latest avatar, Mehbooba said, "We can with great modesty say that the successive NC governments for the past more than four decades have not been able to achieve an iota of what our government did in that brief stint of three years." Mehbooba alleged that the NC destroyed the dignity, authority and self respect of the state and its highest elected institution when it pocketed the insult of the autonomy resolution being thrown virtually into the dustbin by its allies in Delhi. "FarooqSahab and Omar continued to serve on the proverbial 'same salary'," she added. |
