| Govt’s work is not to suppress people: Farooq Abdullah | | Asks where are promised jobs for J&K youth | |  Early Times Report
Srinagar, Oct 20: National Conference President Farooq Abdullah on Wednesday stated that the People of Jammu and Kashmir cannot be subdued by the strong-armed measures, a generous reach-out to the people is the only way out to address their concerns. Addressing a workers convention in Banihal, Abdullah said this while questioning the projected dawn of a new era in Jammu and Kashmir post August 5, 2019 when article 390 and 35A was abrogated.
“Weren’t we told that August 5, 2019 decisions would bring lasting peace? Where is it then? Where is the much touted new dawn to bring job extravaganza for your educated and skilled youth? Where are those jobs? Abdullah asked.
He said the claims of the BJP government that the abrogation of Articles 370 and 35A paved the way for job creation, decreased violence, nurturing democracy, eradicating corruption have fallen flat.
The projected Naya Kashmir by the ruling dispensation in New Delhi has proved to be a doomsday scenario for the people living on either side of Chenab and Pir Panjal ranges,” he asked.
Abdullah said the claims of Government of India on Jammu and Kashmir are far from reality. “There has been a systematic disempowerment of the people of Jammu and Kashmir, particularly its youth”.
He stated that consultations are better than coercion. He said that the corrective measures initiated by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi were a good start but the need of the hour calls for carrying it forward. |
