| BJP happy over intellectual rebuff to liberals | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, Sept 19: Coming down heavily on NC, PDP and Congress for their unambiguous stand on Jammu and Kashmir and for their militant-friendly policies, State BJP president Ashok Khajuria has hailed the initiative of the renowned Delhi-based intellectuals, including former diplomats, senior editors, and ex-top ranking military officials, to neutralize the baneful influence of those in the country who have virtually joined the Kashmiri-separatists and demanded independence for Kashmir from India.
Intensifying the party activities, BJP State President Ashok Khajuria, along with former Union Minister Prof. Chaman Lal Gupta, Member National Executive Dr. Nirmal Singh, former State President Daya Krishan Kotwal and State Vice-president Chander Parkash Ganga, were addressing massive Swabhimaan Rallies at Vijaypur and Samba.
Khajuria said the manner in which they have put things in proper prospective must make the authorities in New Delhi to adopt a clear cut stand on Jammu and Kashmir, which acceded to India as per the law on the subject. He declared that the BJP would never allow the separation of Kashmir from India.
Taking the successive governments in the state and the Congress and National Conference to task for pursuing anti-Jammu policies, Khajuria said the prevailing discontent and disaffection in Jammu province is the fall-out of their bias against itAddressing the rallies, Prof. Chaman Lal Gupta drew the attention of the people to the miserable plight and all-round degeneration and said all this establishes that those who ruled the state since 1947 have consistently excluded the people of Jammu province from all walks of life. Dr. Nirmal Singh exposed the anti-Jammu approach of the Congress and said that the collapse of the Ghulam Nabi Azad-led government was a good riddance. He said it was this government which created more districts in Kashmir ignoring the legitimate claim of the people of Jammu. He said Jammu should have been given 8 additional districts, as compared to Kashmir’s four because Jammu is far more superior in terms of land areas and voters.
Addressing the rallies, Daya Krishan Kotwal informed the audience that the situation in Jammu and Kashmir is deteriorating by each passing day and that it is incumbent on the people of Jammu province to get ready for a full scale campaign against forces inimical to India and those who have been deliberately pursuing anti-Jammu policies, he said the BJP is not opposed to Kashmir but added that it wants a dispensation which is fair and impartial. |
