| Much trumped `actions’ of Govt. invisible on ground: Mufti | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Mar31- Accusing the National Conference-Congress coalition of betraying its unwillingness to act even when situations warranted swift action, Peoples Democratic Party patron and former chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir Mufti Muhammad Sayeed has said that the much trumped `actions’ of the government have not been able to inspire confidence of the people of the state.
“Hue and cry was being raised that the government believes in action rather than words”, Mufti said adding that the actions were completely invisible on the ground. “People’s problem where multiplying and there was hardly any government to be seen at the eminent places like Jammu and Srinagar, not to speak of far-flung areas of this vast state”.
The PDP Patron was speaking at a function to welcome a prominent youth political and social worker Mohammed Ashraf of Atwajan Pulwama and A R Wani of Gool-Gulabgarh, who joined the party with their supporters, here today. Party president Mehbooba Mufti and other senior party leaders including Muzaffar Hussian Beig, Abdul Aziz Zargar, Molvi Iftikar Hussian Ansari, Dilawar Mir, A R Veri, Nizam-u-din Bhat and Altaf Bukhari were also present on the occasion
Mufti said that his government had taken many economic and political measures, despite ideological incoherence and several internal contradictions in its composition.
“We reflected our policies and programmes through the Common Minimum Programme (CMP) and our intentions to work for the betterment of the people were made clear to the general masses”.
The coalition government, he said, can not befool the people with the statements that it believes in maximum rather than minimum. “The government has to take concrete measures so as to strengthen the confidence of the people over the democratic setup”.
He said that much talked about action by the coalition government seems to be only on papers as situation across the state is worsening since the new coalition government came into existence. “The previous coalition had initiated mega developmental projects across the state but most of them were getting delayed due to any people- policy of present coalition”, he said
Asserting that his party was not here for power but to work for the betterment of the people, the former chief minister said that the mandate of the people to the party has strengthen the party at its gross root level and the leadership will not allow the anti-people forces to repeat what has been done in the past.
Welcoming the new leaders into the party fold the PDP patron said that people have voted in large number in favour of the party during the recently held elections and now more and more people are joining the party which itself speaks about the confidence and trust of the common masses on the party”.
Speaking on the occasion AR Wani and Ashraf said that they were inspired by the programs and polices of the PDP party which is the only political party in the state representing the aspirations of the people”, they added.
In the meanwhile political affair committee of the party met here this evening under the chairmanship of party patron Mufti Muhammad Sayeed. Senior Party leaders across the state were present in the meeting. The meeting held a detailed deliberation on the names party candidates to be fielded for the six parliamentary constituencies of the state.
