Early Times Report
JAMMU, Jan 25: Speculations about assembly polls would be held along with parliamentary elections in Jammu and Kashmir have reportedly pressed the panic button in the camp of Peoples Democratic Party.
PDP is struggling hard to put its house in order as most of its leaders who were the potential candidates from different constituencies in the state have already said goodbye to the party and few have been expelled. "The PDP president and former chief minister Mehbooba Mufti is trying her best to save the party from the eminent disaster but she has not succeeded," said an analyst.
He said that the ones who have left the party have already announced that Mehbooba failed as a leader and couldn't keep her party intact. "Ones who are still with Mehbooba are just second rung leaders and have no locus standing. The party which won 28 assembly seats in 2014 assembly elections may not even get 10 seats in the forthcoming polls," the analyst added.
Many people are of the opinion that if the assembly elections are held in Jammu and Kashmir along with the parliamentary polls PDP would be the biggest loser. "In order to regain its lost ground the PDP has taken refuge in communal politics. Recently Mehbooba Mufti tried to stoke up the communal passions in Jammu region by alleging that members of the Gujjar and Bakerwal community are being targeted by the members of a particular community," said a politician.
He said just a few days after Mehbooba targeted the people of Jammu her close aide and former minister Naeem Akther trained his guns at the BJP national president Amit Shah. He alleged that Shah and his party want to turn India into "Hindu Rashtra" and want Muslims to leave the country. "PDP leaders spitting venom against a particular community is a ploy to create a wedge between the two communities to garner votes and to tell the separatists that PDP is carrying forward their agenda," the politician added.
He said that PDP knows it very well that if the assembly elections are held along with the parliamentary polls in the state it would end up on the losing side. "The PDP leaders would try their best to get the assembly polls postponed so that they get some more time to rebuild the party and project themselves as the saviours of the people. But the fact is that PDP presidents is playing a dirty politics and is not ready to take the responsibility for the debacle of her party," the politician added.
