| Mufti calls for broader political consensus to resolve Kashmir | | | Early Times Report
Baramulla, Apr 29: Calling for a political will and broader national consensus to address the Kashmir issue, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) patron Mufti Mohammad Sayeed today said Kashmir has suffered too much and for too long to be turned into a slanging match for electoral gains.
Instead of indulging in histrionics and rhetoric for votes, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah and his Union Minister father, Farooq Abdullah should tell the people what they have done for Jammu and Kashmir while in power all these years, Mr Sayeed said while addressing a series of election rallies in Sangrama Assembly segment of Baramulla Parliamentary constituency.
Having lost the ground, NC leaders are ironically now trying to exploit Kashmir's pain for political gains by indulging in absurd theatrics.
While people in every nook and corner of J&K are suffering immensely because of the complete collapse of governance, NC leaders have reverted back to the outdated tactics of emotional blackmail to exploit the public sentiment, he said. The reign of repression let loose by the NC-Congress coalition regime on the hapless youth is pushing the state towards another phase of instability and strife.
As the people were trying to recoup with the tragedies of turmoil, unfortunately, NC leaders have started pushing Kashmir back into a turbulent situation, as it suits the party's political interests, Sayeed said adding that there seems to be complete anarchy in the state at present with repression and alienation going up dangerously.
Sayeed said although New Delhi has never given such unflinching support to any Chief Minister in J&K as was given to Mr Abdullah, but unfortunately five years down the line, he (Omar) instead of using this support for public good has presided over the complete collapse of governance in J&K.
He said when the present government will be voted out by the people towards the end of this year, if anything, it would be remembered as the darkest era for J&K for recurrence of killings by unidentified gunmen, wanton arrests and mounting sense of insecurity.
