| BJP finally speaks, says Mehbooba Government was anti-Jammu | | SPOs: Kashmir's share 9,000; Jammu's only 1,000 | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Oct 29: The under-attack BJP has finally spoken and tore into the Mehbooba Mufti-led coalition government. It has said that the PDP-led government was essentially Kashmir-centric and it hardly dispensed justice to the people of Jammu province.
In effect, the BJP on Sunday admitted that the PDP with which it shared power for more than three years failed to hand down a government to the people of the state which believed in the principle of justice and equity and which failed to treat all the three regions of the state equally at all levels and in all spheres.
So much so, the BJP claimed that one of the factors which were responsible for the fall of the Mehbooba Mufti government was its discriminatory policies and anti-Jammu attitude and approach. It was none other the J&K BJP general secretary (organization) Ashok Koul who took on Mehbooba Mufti and justified the BJP's decision to withdraw support to her government on June 19.
"The BJP broke the alliance with PDP because of regional disparity. The PDP did not give us (BJP and people of Jammu) the required share. We broke the alliance," Ashok Koul was quoted as saying. To make his point, Ashok Koul also said: "During PDP-BJP rule, 10,000 special police officials were recruited. In Jammu, only 1000 were given jobs, while as in Kashmir 9000 were appointed".
In the meantime, the rattled BJP has demanded a thorough probe into the Governor Satya Pal Malik's disclosures about recruitments made in different departments previously as well as J&K Bank. "Besides allegedly shady health insurance scheme, appointments and inductions into different services, inquiries must be held in other cases also," the BJP has said, adding that those involved should be punished. "We will also punish persons from our party if they were found involved," the BJP on Sunday said.
On Saturday, Governor Malik had exposed many scamps in the state allegedly committed during the previous PDP-BJP government saying "a complete selection list of 582 candidates in J&K Bank was set aside to appoint political workers in their place" and had had also raised a question mark on the working the J&KPSC saying "a youth was selected for KAS even without appearing in the competitive examination". |
