JAMMU, Dec 14: Golf and politics are the two major hobbies of high profile politicians in Jammu and Kashmir. Like golf, the one who hits the hardest and with accurate planning wins in local politics as well.
The only difference is that politics like golf has become a highly priced and very costly affair which only the rich and the famous or those who have connections in high places can afford.
The hero of golf politics in the State has always been the flamboyant Dr. Farooq Abdullah who perhaps loves the game more than he loves politics. Whenever matters of immediate concern and attention were brought to the notice of the NC patron when he was the CM of the State, such matters had to wait because the Boss was busy either on a green or in a trench on the course.
In a State that has burning issues to address, Dr. Farooq Abdullah and CM Omar Abdullah are busy inaugurating golf courses or inviting Bollywood celebrities to shoot and party in J&K. That is the seriousness attached to people's problems by those who have been ruling the State over different periods of time for the last over half a century. |
