| Azad takes dig at NC leaders on Art 370 issue | | | 
Early Times Report
Jammu, Dec 3: Notwithstanding criticism by National Conference vice president Omar Abdullah, ex-leader of opposition in the Rajya Sabha Ghulam Nabi Azad on Friday said that issue of the Article 370 is sub-judice so there is no need to raise this demand.
“Unlike other leaders, I will not take up this issue when the matter is sub-judice”, Azad said at Rajouri, adding, “either we have to wait for the decision of the Court or we will bring a bill in the Parliament”.
Azad, however, added, “We don't have even 10 percent of the total strength required to bring a bill in the Parliament”.
On Monday, Omar Abdullah had lambasted Azad for his statement on Article 370.
“I am disappointed by the statement given by Ghulam Nabi Azad as he is a senior leader and former chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir”, Omar said while reacting to Congress leader's statement.
“If Article 370 is our heritage, it is also your party's legacy more than ours. It was first prime minister Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru of the Congress who brought Article 370 and today Congressmen are not willing to safeguard their legacy. So, how can one expect it to save the people,” he reminded Azad.
Earlier Azad on Sunday stated that there was no point in raising the Article 370 issue. "Our demand is the restoration of statehood and the conduct of elections in J&K without any delay, there is no point in talking of any other issue such as 370 which we have already discussed in the Parliament", Azad said while addressing a rally in Kashmir Valley on Sunday. |
