| Jammu agitation aimed at electoral gains: Karra | | | Early Times Reporter
Chadoora | July 29
Expressing his concern about the mounting tension in Jammu region, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) senior leader Tariq Hamid Qarra today alleged that the sick minded communal forces, who are hell bent to divide the State on communal lines, are providing grist to the mill. The state have always rejected the fascist forces as they religiously believe in communal harmony and brotherhood, he added.
Addressing a public meeting at Bogam in Chadoora, Qarra said that the communal forces spread communal tension in the city of temples through their irresponsible utterances. He added that fearing a political debacle in the ensuing assembly elections and an outright public rejection, there could not be a better occasion for parties like BJP to harp on misinformed Amarnath Shrine Board land diversion issue.
Qarra said that his party is not against Yatra and this misnomer spread by fascist elements who vehemently argued that there was a conspiracy going on to stop the annual Yatra is absolutely baseless. "This is like kick starting the countrywide campaign to gain sympathy out of the issue and look for the political dividends for the forthcoming assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir," Qarra said and added that people of the State have always rejected the fascist forces as they religiously believe in communal harmony and brotherhood.
The former minister said that it was his party which withdrew its support to respect the sentiments of people and come what may it will never compromise on the public interests. "As the assembly elections draw nearer, the communal voices are becoming louder in Jammu. The enemies of peace have started flexing their muscles and have redoubled the hate propaganda to reap a rich electoral harvest in the forth coming elections. But let me tell you that people would never allow them to succeed in their sinister designs," Qarra said.
Appealing the people of Jammu to maintain calm and peace, Qarra cautioned them to remain vigilant against communal elements who want to label the recent crisis in communal colour for their petty electoral interests. "Jammuties should understand that these elements want to destroy Jammu's economy by adding fuel to fire. People of Jammu should take cognizance of these conspiracies," he observed further.
He said that flourishing economy of Jammu has come to a stand still and the fascist forces are responsible for the same. Qarra said that people of Jammu should understand that their business, work, and security have been hit hardly by the continuing agitation. "The sooner the Jammuties would understand plans of fascist forces the better it would be for their life, liberty and economy," he remarked further.
PDP senior leader Javed Mustafa Mir also addressed the meeting. |
