| | Leave 'fixer' political worker, Omar's administration spares none | Think about this! | | Syed Junaid Hashmi
Jammu, Oct 4: Chief Minister Omar Abdullah's recent threat to file defamation suit against leader of People's Democratic Party (PDP) Mehbooba Mufti amply not only describes the image consciousness of a man embroiled by avoidable controversies but raises question on his political maturity and wisdom.
His mantra is "Either you are with me or against". Omar does not like to be dictated and seemingly hates criticism. His politics has mostly revolved around taking the opponents to task. Leave aside the high profile National Conference (NC) worker Mohammed Yousuf Shah, Omar has in the recent past spared none.
To begin with, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah's administration wheth... | |

| | Congress NC's B-team, losing its credibility | Yousuf's Death | | Rustam
JAMMU, Oct 4: The Congress party about which objective and serious commentators are writing its obituaries has been playing a dubious role in the sensitive State of Jammu and Kashmir. It is generally believed that it is the Congress which is responsible for the troubles the country has been facing in the state since 1947. In other words, the general perception in the country is that the Congress is responsible for the "Kashmir problem". The perception is not based on heresy. It is based on hard facts. No need to refer to here those hard facts, as everything is in public domain.
But it is desirable to reflect on what the Congress has done in the state between January 2009 and till d... | |
| | Should tainted get painted on the floor of house? | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Oct 4: Tainted MLAs should not be allowed to speak in the Legislative Assembly at least for three sittings. This is what concerned quarters feel after yesterday's `extra-legislative' activities of the members on the floor of the house. But is it possible? And, who can take the initiative? The questions merit special consideration.
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) president, Mahbooba Mufti gave a `soft' scolding to former works minister G.M. Saroori when he tried to make a point when the leader of opposition was delivering her fiery speech. According to a local newspaper, Mahbooba told him: "You are the one who lost his ministerial berth for a mistake."

| | Congress causing more harm to Jammu | | | Neha
Jammu, Oct 4: The Congress had held out a categorical assurance that it, if voted to power, would not only amend the state constitution to federalize the state polity and establish regional council for Jammu, but would also appoint a delimitation commission to delimit the assembly constituencies afresh and ensure that Jammu got due representation in the assembly, which discusses and decides questions of supreme importance. In 2002 as well, the Congress had made a similar commitment. The only difference was that time it promised to establish in Jammu a development council.
The Congress did come to power in 2002, but it did nothing whatever to fulfill any of these solemn promises on th... | |
