Bishnah | Jan 5
ccusing the ruling coalition alliance of insulting the political values and standards, National Conference president Omar Abdullah today said that some political parties were having a habit of exciting desires and expectations of common masses by deceitful promises which was taking its tool in Jammu and Kashmir.
Addressing a mammoth public meeting at Bishna, in the outskirts of Jammu, here today, the NC president alleged that both Congress and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) lacks ideology and were now racking up issues only to hoodwink the aspirations of people to meet their political ends.
"We have seen nothing but slogans rising and hollow promises", Omar said adding, "The ruling parties were just exciting desires of the people without delivering anything at the ground level".
Without naming anyone, Mr Omar said that some people were degrading the political system by making phony claims and promises and `thanks' to them the political values and modesty have taken a beating in the state.
"We have seen what the coalition partners can do to remain in power", he said adding, "The manner in which the coalition partners made allegations against each other to quench their thirst for power has created a state of anarchy".
The NC president came down heavily upon the critics of National Conference by saying that the rally organised by the party in Jammu today is the eye-opener for such elements which were raising fingers at the party's ideology.
The NC, he said, is the only party acceptable to all the three regions of the state. "Today a renowned Congress family has joined hands with us, which is indication to the fact that even die hard Congressmen have realized that NC is the only party where they can serve people better".
"The myth that NC is the party dominated and acceptable in Kashmir region only is broken and people in large number are joining hands with us, which has turned the party bigger and stronger", he added.
"I am not here to seek your votes but you should count the achievements and failures of coalition government", he said adding, "The government is answerable to people for its deeds and misdeed during its tenure".
He asked the people to strengthen the party at the gross root level so that NC is voted back to power. "People have understood the political ill will of the coalition alliance and it is certain that the era of corruption, nepotism and favoritism is at its near end".
Vikas Dutt, grandson of Pandit Trilochan Dutt, joined National Conference on the occasion along with thousands of his supports. He was welcomed in the party by Party patron Dr Farooq Abdullah and president Omar Abdullah.
Speaking on the occasion, Dutt said that anti-people policies of Congress forced him to quit the party. "I am joining National Conference, which is the only party with secular ideology in the state, to serve my people and state", he added.
The rally was also addressed by Provincial president Ajay Sadhotra, Dr Kamal Arora, Bunty Singh and Surinder Singh Tony. Besides them the meeting was attended by large number of NC leaders including former education minister Muhammad Shafi Uri, Aslam Goni and MLC Davinder Singh Rana. |
