Early Times Report
Jammu, Nov 30: While all parties are demanding granting to statehood to Jammu and Kashmir, BJP general secretary (organization) Ashok Koul made it clear that this demand will be fulfilled provided there will be no selective killing in Kashmir Valley.
Ashok Koul this statement is a clear indication that the Union Government is not going to grant statehood to J&K as early as Kashmir centric parties are thinking.
Highly placed sources said that Union Government is working on a plan to completely eradicate terrorism from J&K and statehood would be granted only after completion of the task to make the Kashmir Valley free from bloodshed and destruction.
Sources further revealed that during his recent visit to Jammu and Kashmir, Union Home Minister Amit Shah had given clear directions to the security agencies to make Kashmir Valley free from terrorism.
“Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah have assured on the floor of the Parliament that statehood would be granted to Jammu and Kashmir”, Ashok Koul on Monday said but hastened to add that it will be restored only after the situation gets normal in Jammu and Kashmir and selective killings of innocent will be stopped.
Interacting with media persons at Bandipora Ashok Koul said that statehood would be restored provided sustainable peace will be established in every nook and corner of J&K.
When a common man feels safe and lives without fear in J&K, then definitely statehood would be granted, he said and added that BJP has always supported this demand.
During his visit to Jammu and Kashmir in October, the Union Home Minister, Amit Shah had reiterated that the assembly elections will be held in the union territory after delimitation and restoration of statehood will follow.
Shah said he has made a promise in Parliament that the statehood of J&K would be restored and it would be done after the assembly elections.
Elections will happen. Politicians from Kashmir want that the delimitation to be stopped. Why? Because it hurts their politics. Now, such things will not stop in Kashmir,” he had asserted.
“The youth of Kashmir will get opportunities, so a right delimitation will be done, which will be followed assembly elections, and then the status of the statehood will be restored. I have said this in the country's Parliament and this is the roadmap,” he had stated. |
