Early Times Report
Jammu, May 21: Reacting to the statements of NC & PDP Party leaders, the killers of constitutional Institutions like Panchayati Raj Act 1989, Art 370 , Art 35-A & Accountability Commission Act. 2002 etc. Ram Singh Chauhan & Kuldeep Kumar Rao the active members of Movement for Peace, Equality & Justice, in a joint statement issued here expressed great surprise & wonder over the chest beating of National Conference, who ruled the State for over 35 years, over the crutches of Congress as also the BJP never thought of giving powers to the people down at grass roots when in power and now out of power, they want safe guards of Art.370 & 35-A of Indian constitution.
It was during NC rule when Panchyati Raj Act breathed its lost, the constituting of De- Limitation Commission was thrown beyond 2031- the biggest ever injustice to people of Jammu region & denial of voting rights to the lakhs of refugees of 1947,1961 & 1971 wars fought with Pakistan and murder of several other constitutional Institutions. The BJP on the other hand, is also party to jeopardizing the de-limitation, when they remained mum in the year 2002 in J&K Assembly when NC managed amendment No: 29 in state constitution prolonging the constitution of De-limitation Commission beyond 2031, which they promised to the people in 2014 Assembly Elections.
They were also mute spectators to the statement of Ms Mehbooba Mufti when She said that there will be no body in the valley to lift/ shoulder the dead remains of National Flag " Tringa" in case special status of Art. 370 or 35-A is disturbed or done away with forgetting the fact that BJP since its coming into being has remained staunch supporter of abrogation of Art. 370. |
