| Mehbooba cautions Jammuites against divisive agenda of BJP | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Mar 23: Cautioning people against the divisive and dangerous politics of the ruling BJP, former chief minister and president of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Mehbooba Mufti on Wednesday regretted that instead of solving basic problems of the masses the BJP is brazenly indulged in creating an atmosphere of hatred and division across the country.
"Atmosphere of hate suits BJP to consolidate its vote bases. Since 2014 we are watching how the BJP is reaping political benefits of the divisive rhetoric", Mehbooba said while addressing a one-day convention of PDP workers here today.
"Except hoodwinking the gullible masses by raking up emotive issues BJP has done nothing to solve basic problems of the people", she said and pointed out every section of the society be it youth, women, working-class, weaker sections, and minorities are bearing brunt of the wrong policies of BJP.
Blasting the BJP for inciting religious hatred and engaging in divisive politics, the former chief minister asked the people of Jammu to remain vigilant against such evil designs of BJP.
PDP president further said that J&K has been plunged into unprecedented crisis after the abrogation of Article 370 and downgrading of the erstwhile state into two Union Territories (UTs).
"While as the whole J&K has suffered immensely on the economic front due to devastating steps taken by Centre and the J&K administration, Jammu region is the worst victim of the government's policies", she pointed out. "During the four years, democratic institutions have brazenly been subverted in J&K and there is no freedom of speech", she observed and warned that policies being pursued by the Union Government would be proved disastrous for the people of J&K as every section of the society has suffered badly due to ill-advised steps taken by the government.
Pointing towards the flourishing of liquor and mining mafia in the Jammu region, controlled by outsiders, the PDP president said that it appears that the present dispensation in J&K is hell-bent to render people of this region jobless.
Speaking on the occasion, Mehboob Beg, Organizational General Secretary of PDP, recalled people of Jammu had celebrated the unconstitutional decision taken by the Union Government on August 5, 2019. "Now the Jammu is the worst victim of the policies being pursued by the Centre and J&K government", he said and regretted that the present regime has no plans to get rid of the problem of growing unemployment among the youths.
Abdul Hamid Choudhary, vice president, Amreek Singh Reen, general secretary, Rashid Malik, additional general secretary, Balbir Singh and others also spoke on the occasion. |
