| Congress regrets over non-inclusion to other mainstream political parties | | Raises questions over the complete cancellation of Shri Amarnath Yatra | | Early Times Report
Jammu, June 23: Congress today regretted the non-invitation & non-inclusion to other mainstream recognized political parties especially from Jammu region, as the BJP does not want others to highlight their (BJP) failures and hollowness of claims and it is against the spirit of democracy and process of dialogue.
JKPCC Chief Spokesperson Ravinder Sharma flanked by Farmer Minister & Vice President JKPCC Raman Bhalla also raised questions over the complete cancellation of Shri Amarnath Yatra, when covid situation has improved and Vaishno Devi Yatra is going on.
Sharma questioned the non- invitation & non-inclusion to other mainstream political parties and other social groups especially having their voice in Jammu & Kashmir, who had been earlier too invited and participated in the round table conferences on J&K during UPA Govt. headed by Manmohan Singh.
Sharma questioned why those parties who had been in electoral politics for long time and had their representatives in the past in the state legislature besides other socio-political groups representing various sections and groups have not been invited. Why selective approach when these groups have been part of earlier deliberations during UPA.
Probably BJP does not want any other political party to exist in Jammu Region and it fears exposures of its hollow claims post August 2019 in Jammu region too.
He regretted that BJP UT Unit yesterday even failed to say that it would demand statehood back, so what are expectations from BJP leaders representing J&K in dialogue process.
The Congress party which is a national party having its base in all regions of Jammu and Kashmir will represent the voice and aspirations of all such sections but it could have been more meaningful if it had been more broad based with participation of other genuine political shades of opinion. Various sections are dismayed, as they were promised by BJP, in the past.
Bhalla and Sharma strongly criticized the complete cancellation of Shri Amarnath Yatra when Covid situation has improved a lot for time being and Holy Vaishno Devi Yatra is going on besides normal business activities have been restored.
The Govt. has double standards on this aspect. Limited number of yatries and holy yatra should have been allowed and if at all the Covid situation worsens again, the Yatra could have been stopped like BJP Govt. did in August 2019, for disbanding the state.
This is unfortunate on the part of Govt. and Shrine Board especially the silence of BJP on this sensitive issue of great religious sanctity, apart from great set back to the economy of the Jammu and Kashmir. Highest number of Amarnath pilgrimage was witnessed during NC-Congress regime crossing 6.35 Lac mark but it declined continuously during BJP Govt. |
