Early Times Report
srinagar, Jan 8: Peoples Democratic Party has said that Chief Minister Omar Abdullah is responding with juvenile pranks to a crisis in Kashmir Valley that is result of mal-functioning of his government.
Commenting on the complete breakdown of facilities in the Kashmir Valley, president of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Mehbooba Mufti said that Kashmir has gone back to stone age thanks to collapse of government under Omar Abdullah. Taking a dig at Chief Minister for his pronouncements, she said that electricity supply system in Valley has collapsed and there is black out everywhere causing serious dislocations in life.
Pointing towards miseries being faced by people of Kashmir Valley, she said that water supply is out of gear, hospitals are not able to cope up with their works and the telecommunication system has broken down. Kashmir Valley has got cut off from rest of the world. PDP president said that recent snowfall has exposed tall claims of government- which has failed to minimize miseries of common masses at the time of crises.
She said that two inches of snowfall in Srinagar and other parts of the Valley are proving more disastrous to services provided by government than any Tsunami could have caused. She regretted that instead of taking some concerted efforts to provide some relief to the people living in sub-zero temperature without electricity, cooking gas and fuel, the Chief Minister is trying to generate news stories and tweets.
Instead of taking some effective steps, Chief Minister has been brazenly indulging in photo sessions for cheap publicity, she said and added that announcement of Chief Minister to postpone restoration of electricity to VIP areas of Srinagar is meaningless as all VIPs including ministers and top bureaucrats are in Jammu. This announcement, she said, is no compensation for trouble being faced by people because of the failure of Omar Abdullah as Chief Minister as well as Power Minister because he has presided over a sharp deteriorating power scenario during the last three years.
"While Kashmiris were hoping to get uninterrupted power supply, National Conference led regime has taken Valley back to uninterrupted darkness which the people of Kashmir used to under earlier National Conference dispensations", she said. Mehbooba Mufti further said that people of the Valley have been pushed to the wall as they are not allowed to protest against this unprecedented crisis in the shape of blackout and against inability of the government to supply even meager power supply.
While pointing towards the recent gruesome killing of Altaf Ahmed, a class 12th student at Boniyar in Uri area, who was killed during protest against power shortage, she said protests are met with force. Killing of Altaf remain another blot on the face of this regime, she said. |
