| DISRESPECT TO NATIONAL SONG: PDP MINISTER,RAJYA SABHA MP CAUGHT NAPPING | | |
Jammu, October 4: A piquant situation was created on Wednesday at the venue of the PDP rally in Bisnah as PDP minister Manjeet Singh, Rajya Sabha MP TS Bajwa along with several other PDP leaders failed to accord due respect to the National Anthem and remained seated.
The entire episode which lasted barely one minute happened minutes before the arrival of the Mehbooba Mufti Sayeed and Finance Minister Tariq Hamid Qarra at the venue of the party rally.
It was learnt that while technicians were checking the mike system they played a music cassette of National Anthem taking everyone including PDP minister present on the dais by surprise.
The incident created flutter among media men as they noticed none of the PDP leader was standing even as National Anthem was played on.
Not only senior PDP leaders failed to respond but several others assembled to listen to the party leaders, also remained glued to the chairs and the ground.
Later during the rally when Finance Minister was addressing the public suddenly power went off and the mike system in the absence of back up power supply went blank. At this point of time several women, gathered since morning, started shouting slogans and vent their ire against steep price hike and poor infrastructure facilities in their area.The PDP workers and other senior leaders did their best to pacify the crowd but the tamasha continued for some time much to the discomfort of PDP leaders. Minutes later when PDP Chief was addressing the rally, mike system once again went off and Mehbooba reacted sharply, ‘yeh kya tamasha hai’. The organizers managed to plug the snag allowing Mehbooba Mufti to continue with her speech. |
