| No boycott, no walkout, will expose government on floor: PDP | | | Bashir Assad SRINAGAR, Sept 29: The Autumn Session of the state assembly commencing from Wednesday is set to begin on a stormy note with main opposition PDP planning to corner the government on Shopian and Gool killings, Kishtwar communal riots, Kathua and Samba killings and General VK Singh's revelations. Interstingly the PDP legislature party which met here today decided not to stage any walkout during the brief session but to raise the issues with force to corner the government. "There are many issues which need to be discussed in the coming session of the assembly with Shopian killings, deteriorating law and order situation, General V.K Singh's remarks and miss-governance being on top of the agenda" senior PDP leader and MLA Lolab, Abdul Haq Khan told Early Times. Khan said the legislature party has devised a strategy to raise the issues in a planned manner and avoid staging walkouts in protest. "We will raise the various issues of miss-governance and deteriorating law and order situation in a proper and planed manner so that the government is exposed for its misdeeds" said Khan. Another senior leader of the party and MLA Shangus, Peerzada Mansur Husain said that there are number of issues including Shopian Killings, Gool Killings, General Singh's remarks, corruption which PDP will raise vociferously to expose the government. Meanwhile a PDP statement today said that the PDP legislature party decided to raise the issues concerning the governance paralysis and issues like the victimization of youth, back door entries in the government, confrontation with the employees and the shortage of ration and corruption in the assembly. The statement said the report of the government of India on the working of army in the state has exposed the extra constitutional methods adopted in Jammu & Kashmir to subvert democracy and political system, while the impact of the expose had hit severely the image of the entire political spectrum. PDP Chief Spokesperson Naeem Akhtar said the meeting felt that the matter must be discussed threadbare in the legislature so as to assert the democratic rights of the people and expose the real culprits who have brought bad name to the system. He said the meeting observed that the sanctity of the legislature it self was at stake unless the people knew all the facts about what has been happening behind the scene in the state. Akhtar said the meeting expressed serious concern at the unabated killings in different parts of the state at the hands of government forces. The legislators felt that the government had failed in securing the life and dignity of the ordinary people and the recent massacres at Shopian, Gool and Markundal indicated that the situation has gone completely out of control of the government. They felt that the atmosphere of impunity prevailing under Omar Abdullah government made everybody in the state unsafe and insecure.
