Jammu | May 18
State unit of the BJP has said emphatic ‘no’ to the proposed decision of the state government to establish headquarters of the Chenab valley corporation in Kashmir
Addressing a press conference here in Jammu on Sunday state BJP Vice President and chief spokesman Prof Hari Om said that , “moves are afoot, it appears, to enable Kashmiri leadership to establish control over the Jammu’s Chenab waters and establish Greater Kashmir comprising Kashmir and the Muslim-majority areas of Jammu and Ladakh provinces.Prof Hari Om said that if it is untrue that how else should one interpret the reported decision of the Congress-led ruling coalition in the state to create Chenab Valley Corporation with its propose dheadquarter sin Kashmir for the joint exploration and exploitation of hydroelectric potential with NHPC?
In a stern warning to the congress led coalition government Prof Hari Om said “people of Jammu will not accept Chenab Valley Corpration unless its composition and framework ensure complete control of Jammu region over the project. BJP would see to it that its headquarters are in Jammu.
Seeking clarification from the union power minister the state BJP leader said BJP is in dark whether the state government has accepted the Union Power Ministry’s recommendation to install a 1000MW thermal power plant in Jammu to meet the power needs of the state. It also wants to know whether the representatives of the state government have opposed the proposal of thermal power plant or not. As for the BJP, it has the information that the state government has opposed the Union Power Ministry’s proposal because it benefits the people. It is for the state government to clear its position.
Pointing fingers towards PDP leadership the BJP leader said the whole campaign which is being spearheaded by the PDP focuses on control of the hydroelectric potential is basically part of a broader strategy evolved to divide Jammu province along the Chenab River. In a situation, where both the NC and the PDP have been relentlessly trying to divide Jammu on communal lines, the creation of Chenab Valley Corporation is the first step towards the creation of Greater Kashmir. |
