| PAGD constituents ‘ditch’ Mehbooba; PDP boycotts Delimitation Commission | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, July 6: Notwithstanding claims of the leadership of the People’s Alliance for Gupkar Declaration (PAGD) to remain united on all issues, the decision of most of the constituents of the amalgam has apparently ditched Mehbooba Mufti.
Ignored by the other parties of PAGD on the issue of meeting Delimitation Commission, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) announced to boycott the panel.
Instead of meeting the visiting panel, PDP general secretary and former minister Ghulam Nabi Lone Hanjura wrote a letter to the Delimitation Commission to express his party’s viewpoint.
Till late Monday evening, all constituents of the PAGD were undecided on the issue of meeting the Delimitation Commission. In the official handout issued by the PAGD on Monday morning, not a single word was mentioned about the visit of the Delimitation Commission. On late Monday evening, the main constituent of PAGD, National Conference announced to meet the panel by constituting two teams - one for Kashmir and another for Jammu.
Other constituents of the amalgam-CPI, CPM, and Awami National Conference have also given their consent to meet the Delimitation Commission at Srinagar. As per the itinerary of the visiting panel, meetings slots of other constituents of PAGD have already been fixed for their meeting with members on Tuesday evening.
After main constituents of the PAGD gave their consent to meet the visiting panel, PDP this morning announced to boycott the Delimitation Commission.
Announcing its decision not to meet the Delimitation Commission, PDP described the whole exercise as “pre-planned” to favor of a particular party and “aimed to further hurt the interests of people of J&K”.
“On 5th of August 2019, the constitutional and democratic values of our country were trampled upon with the people of Jammu & Kashmir being robbed of their legitimate constitutional and democratic rights by means of abrogation of Article 370 and 35 (A) of the Indian constitution, illegally and unconstitutionally,” the PDP letter reads.
The party further said, “There are apprehensions that the delimitation exercise is part of the overall process of political disempowerment of the people of J&K that the Government of India has embarked on.”
“There are apprehensions that the process is aimed at realizing the political vision of a particular political party in J&K wherein, like other things, the views and wishes of the people of J&K would be considered the least”, the party observed. |
