Early Times Report

Jammu, Feb 22: Within days after airing apprehensions that the Union Government will give a truncated statehood after polls, former Chief Minister and National Conference president Dr. Farooq Abdullah appeared to have lost hope of getting statehood back.
“I do not think that the Union Government will restore statehood to Jammu and Kashmir”, Dr Abdullah said and added that the Centre was just befooling people on this issue.
Lok Sabha member from Srinagar Dr. Farooq Abdullah charged the BJP-led government of the centre of playing a gimmick with the people on the issue of the restoration of statehood to Jammu and Kashmir.
“Centre doesn’t want to restore statehood. It is all a gimmick to mislead us and the world. They won’t give it,” he said.
Earlier on February 15, Dr. Farooq Abdullah aired apprehensions that the Union Government will give a truncated statehood after polls.
Dr. Abdullah was reacting to the statement of Union Home Minister Amit Shah who stated on February 14 that the restoration of statehood to Jammu and Kashmir will come up after assembly polls and that a call on the timing of elections will be taken by the Election Commission.
“I had clearly stated that statehood will be restored in Jammu and Kashmir after elections”, he said.
Reacting to Home Minister's statement, Dr. Farooq Abdullah said, “I think Union Government do not want to give us statehood. They will give truncated state after the elections.
