Early Times Report
Kishtwar, May 20: The row over Kishtwar youth Congress election has deepened with the Azad loyalists threatening resignation from the party.
Pertinent to mention the two rival factions led by Professor Soz and Ghulam Nabi Azad are at war over `controversial' youth Congress elections scheduled to be held last week. The elections were postponed when Azad loyalists objected to the voter list.
The Azad loyalists have threatened mass resignation incase the voter list was not amended. A statement gave details of a meeting held today with Mohammad Iqbal Keen, Ex Youth Congress president Kishtwar in chair.
The meeting alleged large scale bunglings in Youth Congress election in 51 Kishtwar Assembly Segments. The statement blamed LRO Udhampur Rana Harvinder Singh for misplacing 580 membership forms submitted by Azad loyalists.
The meeting demanded a probe into the irregularity. "Some vested interests within the party are hatching conspiracy to defame the party for self interests. The present voter list contains the names of only few persons from Kishtwar town while the other areas are unrepresented. If the election is held as per present voter list, the Youth Congress activists of Marwah, Nagsini, Warwan, Dachhan, Trigham, Paddar and other areas of Kishtwar will not be eligible to participate."
Among the prominent who threatened to resign include Suman Thakur, Vikrant Sharma (Dachhan), Khurshid Ahmed (Palmar), Abid Hussain (Marwah), Mohammad Imran (Kishtwar), Seri Chand (Nagsini), Randeep Thakur (Ex. VP NSUI Kishtwar) and Vikram Bhandari (Ex. State Secretary Youth Congress). When tried to contact ARO Karamjeet Singh for his comment, his mobile phone was found switched off.
It is worth mentioning that Youth Congress activists of Soz group blame MLA Inderwal Ghulam Mohammad Saroori and his brother for creating trouble in poll process of Youth Congress which was later denied by Saroori's supporters.
