| Sharma discusses BJP’s party position in Kashmir | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT Jammu, May 5: BJP State General Secretary Sat Sharma , who is on 3-day tour of Kashmir, chaired a meeting of district presidents, district incharges and block presidents at Rajbagh office of the party. Sat Sharma discussed the present situation of the party in Kashmir. He said the NC-Congress coalition government has totally failed to come upto the expectations of the people of the state. High claims of development and welfare of the masses are being made but the ground realities are entirely different. Not even a single day passes when there are reports of protests, dharna, agitation, hunger strikes, police lathicharge. People are seen on roads protesting against irregular supply of drinking water, imposition of long power cuts, non availability of water for irrigational purpose, Women, employees, unemployed youth, pensioners are on dharnas for fulfilment of what they deserve and have been deprived by the government. Sharma said that it is unfortunate that the coalition government headed by Omar Abdullah is working as per the wishes of Hurriyat Chairman Syed Ali Shah Geelani and it seems as the government is run by separatists and not by the elected representatives. Cancellation of Dogra Certificate is the glaring example of pro-separatist and appeasement policy of the state as well as Congress-led UPA government. It is injustice with the Dogra youth of Jammu province. We have launched state-wide protests on the issue and warn the state government to desist from surrendering before the people like Geelani and treat all the religions and regions equal, he said. Sharma further said that the people of Kashmir in general have rejected the ideology of separatists and are not in favour of stone pelting, hartals,bandhs etc. at the call of separatist leaders who take the people of valley for granted. He said record turn out in Panchayat elections in Kashmir prove that the youths of Kashmir want development and employment. The meeting was also addressed by Dr. Ali, Altaf Thakur, Sheikh Bashir, Mohd. Tahir, Mohd. Ashraf Reshi, Manzoor Ahmad Kulgami and M.M War.
