| NC not to support Army's operation All out is a vote catching device | | | The National Conference leadership is against the Army's operation All-out against the militants in Kashmir. This statement from President of NC is aimed at strengthening its vote bank. Once the NC is back to power it will not tolerate incidents of militancy related violence. National Conference (NC) president Farooq Abdullah has said if voted to power, his party would not support the Army's Operation All-out against the militants in Kashmir. The NC patron said this on the sidelines of a workers' meeting at Dak Bungalow in Anantnag town. "How can we support something where there is suppression," Farooq said when asked whether his party would support the Operation All-out. The Operation All-out was conceived in June 2017 to flush out militants from the Valley. Security agencies had prepared a list of over 250 militants from various outfits who were to be eliminated.
Most of the militants on the list have been killed by security forces in the Kashmir valley. Farooq said his party did not want the people to suffer. "It's not a question of the Operation All-out. We do not want our people to suffer. We don't want our people to be beaten up in their homes. That has never been a part of the NC policy," Farooq said.
He said his party was not going to support any violence or "violation of human rights". Knowing that the vote bank of the PDP in South Kashmir has weakened and that is the reason for choosing Anantnag, part of south Kashmir, to convene a meeting of NC workers. Later, Farooq invited the media persons for an interaction. On being asked whether his party would order a probe into the civilian killings of 2016 if voted to power, Farooq said: "Omar (Abdullah) has already stated that there should be a reconciliation commission." More than 100 civilians were killed and thousands were injured in violence following the killing of Hizbul Mujahideen commander Burhan Wani in July 2016. Farooq said his party would announce a "truth and reconciliation commission" the day it was sworn to power.
This is all for the case of regaining power. When he was the Chief Minister between 1996 and 2002 the current policy against militants continued. Because Farooq as head of the Government wanted derailed peace to be back on the rails. About 11,000 lives were lost under the NC regime in 1990 Pakistan sponsored insurgency was exported to Kashmir and that time Farooq, as Chief Minister, had resigned so whatever happened was not his Government's responsibility. Still scores of militants were killed and several hundred civilians were killed and injured. Your cannot expect end to terrorism by not killing terrorists and by killing terrorists peace is sure to return to Kashmir. And during the Farooq regime there was no trend of crowds surface during the encounter sites and at the time of burial of slain militants that has given the advantage of containing killing of civilians. |
