PDP decides to take on Govt Army funding to Kashmiri leaders 9/29/2013 10:46:28 PM EARLY TIMES REPORT Srinagar, Sept 29 : Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) legislature party today decided take on the government on the recent expose on army funding and unabated killings in the state in the upcoming autumn session of the state legislature. The decision was taken today at a meeting of the party legislators held here under the chairmanship of the party president and leader Mehbooba Mufti. It was also 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. The meeting felt that 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. 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. The meeting observed that the sanctity of the legislature itself was at stake unless the people knew all the facts about what has been happening behind the scene in the state. 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. The meeting also discussed the numerous incidents of killings by unknown gunmen, the recent attacks in Jammu and expressed worry at the worsening situation. These issues, the meeting decided will be taken up forcefully in both houses of the legislature apart from the general lack of governance and corruption   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
