| Jairam Ramesh dubs DPAP as “Disappearing Azad Party” | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Aug 7: Within minutes after two staunch supporters of Ghulam Nabi Azad rejoined the Congress party, general Secretary in-charge Communications of Congress party Jairam Ramesh mocked his former party colleague by calling his party a "Disappearing Azad Party".
Jairam Ramesh again dubbed Azad’s party as “Disappearing Azad Party”
“Earlier this morning, 21 J&K leaders from DAP (Disappearing Azad Party) rejoined the Congress, including one who filed a defamation case against me on behalf of Ghulam Nabi Azad.
Meanwhile, Mr. GNA himself gives new evidence of his DNA mutation by saying "Those opposing Article 370 abrogation ignorant of the situation on the ground". This is from a man who led the charge against the abrogation in the Rajya Sabha on Aug 5, 2019!”, he posted on social media.
“I suppose he needs to justify the very generous extension given to him to continue staying in his sprawling bungalow in New Delhi, long after he has exited Parliament”, Ramesh added.
Important to mention here that three former legislators namely Naresh K Gupta from Bhaderwah, Sham Lal Bhagat from Doda, and Haji Abdul Rashid Dar, from Sopore Kashmir, returned to the Congress fold after quitting DPAP.
The ex-lawmakers claimed themselves as staunch supporters of Ghulam Nabi Azad. It was all due to the efforts of Ghulam Nabi Azad that both Gupta and Bhagat were elected as members of the Legislative Council of the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir.
Abdul Rashid Dar, who had won the assembly election in 2014 from the Sopore constituency of north Kashmir's Baramulla district on a Congress ticket, was among the founding members of the DPAP which was formed by former chief minister Ghulam Nabi Azad in September last year after ending his five-decade-long association with the grand old party.
Other DPAP leaders namely Saima Jan, Shahjehan Dar, Santosh Majotra, Rajni Sharma, Nirmal Singh Mehta, Maheshvar Vishwakarma, and Jung Bahadur Sharma returned to the Congress party. |
