| 'Indira-Sheikh Accord' damaged India, harmed Jammu, Ladakh: Prof Hari Om | | |
Early Times Report
Jammu, Dec 27 : Expressing concern over senior Congress leader's remarks saying 'Congress considers the 1975 Indira-Sheikh Accord as the ultimate solution to the so-called Kashmir issue', Political Advisor to State BJP President Prof Hari Om today rejected out-of-hand his formulation saying the Accord was communally-motivated and was imposed on the State against the will of an overwhelming majority of the state population.
"The 1975 Accord accorded legitimacy to the politics of autonomy. It strengthened separatist tendencies in Kashmir. It was not based on the will of the people of the state, he said further adding, "it was an attempt of Prime Minister Indira Gandhi to enable Kashmir to further perpetuate the domination of votaries of greater autonomy in Kashmir on state polity and jeopardize the political and economic interests of the already suffering people of Jammu province and Ladakh region."
Prof Hari Om said while the people of Jammu and Ladakh had opposed the Accord tooth and nail and forced Sheikh Abdullah government not only to give up his demand for greater autonomy but also to adopt more Central laws so that the state could be brought at par with other states of the Union, ironically the bulk of the Congress leadership in the state had through subverted the polity caused immense harm to Jammu and Ladakh by pursuing divisive and anti-Jammu and anti-Ladakh policies. Political Advisor to State BJP President said that the BJP will accept only that change that brings J&K closer to New Delhi than ever before and empower the neglected and marginalized regions and ignored social groups and minorities in the state. He also had asked Congress leaders not to walk trap of Kashmiri leadership which has consistently played foul politics and blackmailed New Delhi to promote its own selfish interests. |
