| Dudha thanks supporters, blames negative politics for defeat | | | et plus report
Jammu, 7: Thanking BJP, PDP and National Panthers Party for encouraging and supporting him in the MLC elections, independent Kashmiri Pandit candidate ShibanDudha, a CA by profession, blamed the vicious negative politics prevailing in state for his defeat.
Dudha said by his contesting in the MLC elections, his attempt was to bring the politically ignored Kashmiri Pandit community on political map of Jammu and Kashmir and the electoral contest was a small step to strengthen the vanishing and eroding democratic and secular institutions of the state.
It was disappointing to find Shri ChamanLal Gupta led break away group of BJP and independent candidate abstain from Voting.
Had theyvoted I would have won, Dudha said. By abstaining and defeating me they have lost the moral authority to claim themselves as well wishers of displaced Kashmiri Pandits. The people of Jammu and Kashmir in particular and country in general, who are believers in secular and pluralistic inclusive politics must take a serious notice of it.
Their abstaining has also bulldozed the expectations of one million Kashmiri Pandits living worldwide. Dudha however wished those who abstained also well. Taking a dig at the ruling alliance, Dudha said it was responsibility of the Government to impart in KPs' a sense of belonging to state but unfortunately, we are asked to assert and crave for it. What kind of democracy we have in our state, Dudha wondered. |
