| Omar has put J&K in reverse gear: Beig | | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, Nov 21: Continuing its campaign against corruption, mis-governance, lack of development, price rise and human rights abuses, Peoples Democratic Party Monday held protest demonstration at all district headquarters in the Kashmir valley.
A large number of party workers led by their senior leaders hit the street in large protest demonstrations taken out in Srinagar Anantnag, Kulgam, Shopian, Pulwama, Budgam, Baramulla, Ganderbal, Bandipora and Kupwara.
In Srinagar the protest rally started at PDP office and was led by Senior PDP leaders Muzaffer Hussain Beig, Moulvi Iftikar Ansari, Tariq Qarra and distict president Mohammad Ashraf Mir.
Led by their senior party leaders the protestors raising slogans and placards highlighting common mans woes, rampant corruption and failures of the present coalition took to the streets of summer capital of state today.
Addressing the rally Muzaffer Hussain Beig said the Omer Abdullah led government had put the state in a reverse gear at all fronts. "While other states of the country are marching forward, Omer Abdullah, busy in political gimmicks, has put a virtual stop on the growth and development of the state leading to miseries for people, rampant corruption, unemployment and runaway price rise", he said.
Beig accused the NC led coalition of trying to deflect attention from the corruption in Abdullah family that was exposed by the suspicious death of their close confidante Haji Yousuf and resorted to hollow rhetoric on AFSPA.
He also accused the NC led government of failing to protect peoples rights, life and honor. "This government did not even prosecute a single official accused of killing 120 innocent boys last year," he said.
He said the NC would have to account for every penny of the loot they indulged in and every drop of blood they shed of innocent Kashmiris and PDP would work for public accountability of all political parties.
He said the present government is incapable of doing anything let alone removing AFSPA from the state. The removal of APSPA from Budgam and Srinagar, where it is not applicable, is only a political gimmick. "It will have to go from all areas from Kupwara to Poonch where this law actually is a source of trouble and not merely Srinagar and Jammu as a cosmetic exercise planned by Omar" he said.
Beig said it was the PDP in 2007 that first proposed the removal of AFSPA. "It was in 2007, when Mufti Sahab wrote a letter to Prime Minister saying there was no need of APSPA in the state. The PM had then Set-up a working group to look into the matter." Subsequently the working group led by the vice president Hamid Ansari recommended scrapping of this law, a development that has been frittered away by
Omar Abdullah through his shoddy handling of the issue in panic reaction to exposure of his family's corruption.
He accused the CM of holding the centre hostage by beating the AFSPA drum for holding on to his CM chair. He questioned "why Omer Abdullah raised the pitch on AFSPA at a time when voices in congress were raised for the rotational CM?"
Beig said the last three year governance of National Conference led coalition government has only brought down the quality of governance to a level that common mans trust has eroded from democratic institutions.
In Anantnag, the demonstration was led by Abdur Rehman Veeri, Peerzada Mansoor, Mohd Rafi Mir, including Zonal presidents. The rally was attended by thousands of people and workers who demanded for improved living standard.
In Ganderbal, the protest demonstration was led by Qazi Mohd Afzal and others. In Kulgam the rally was led by Deputy Speaker Mohd Sartaj Madni, Sofi Abdul Gaffar and district president Nazir Ahmed Laway.
In Shopian, the protest demonstration was led by Senior leader and MLC Murtaza Khan and others leaders.
In Pulwama the rally was led by Mohd Khaleel Bandh and others. In Baramulla the demonstration was led by Mohd Dilawar Mir, Syed Basharat Bukhari and others. In Kupwara the rally was led by Abdulhaq Khan and others. In Bandipora the protest demonstrations was led by Nizam-ud-Din Bhat and district president Yasir Reshi. In Budgam the rally was led by district president MlA Javed Mustafa Mir, MLA Mohd
Shafi Wani, Agha Syed Mehmood , Ghulam Nabi Hanjoora and Nazir Ahmed Yatoo.
