| Cong demands statehood but maintains silence on Art 370 | | | Early Times Report
jammu, Dec 10: Congress on Thursday reiterated demand of the restoration of statehood to UT but party leadership preferred to maintain silence on bringing back Article 370 and 35-A.
Interacting with media persons at Jammu after campaigning, first time, for party candidates during the on-going District Development Councils (DDCs) elections, AICC incharge J&K, Rajni Patil reiterated the demand of restoring statehood to J&K.
She questioned BJP and the Central Govt. to tell the people when the statehood is being restored to J&K besides securing jobs and land rights to the people which is a universal demand of the people of Jammu and Kashmir. The Congress party shall struggle for securing these rights to the people of J&K.
Patil predicted that Congress will form its government in J&K and the party will bring back statehood.
Interestingly Congress leadership is vociferously demanding statehood for J&K but the party leaders could not muster the guts to raise the demand of restoration of Article 370 and 35-A. Congress leadership is very much aware that demanding restoration of Article 370 would be proved counterproductive in other parts of the country.
She also expressed great concern over the denial of adequate security to the Congress, especially to the senior leaders and prominent office bearers of the national party. She termed the matter as serious and said that this is being done with a view to dissuade the Congress leaders from aggressive campaigning during these elections. The policy of pick and choose in the matter of security is wrong and unfortunate, the senior AICC leader said. |
