| BJP rejects interlocutors report at NE meet | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, May 24: BJP today while rejecting the interlocutors report on J&K said has been deliberately released 36 hours after the Parliament was adjourned,sine die. This has been done in order to avoid parliamentary accountability of the report.
The Party National Executrive meet which is in session at Mumbai said the BJP will react in detail after examining the report at length . The party, however, on a preliminary examination of the report expresses its disappointment on the same. The report is a verbose document written in denial about certain basic realities, it in a statement issued to press later added.
It said Pakistan has not reconciled to Jammu & Kashmir being integral part of India and it is not likely to cooperate in terms of resolution of the political issues.
The key problem confronting the state is terrorism, both cross- border and local, which is engineered either from Pakistan or local separatist groups. The report offers no solution to this problem other than suggesting dilution of anti-terrorism steps, it added.
It said the future of secularism and coexistence in the Kashmir valley where Kashmiri Pandits & Sikhs have been tortured, threatened , killed & compelled to leave the valley. The report offers no response to their rehabilitation.
The report weakens the Indian position so stated in the 1994 resolution of the Indian Parliament that PoK is an Integral part of India. This report proceeds on the basis that PoK is and will be Pakistan Administered and refers to POK as PAJK( Pakistan Administered Jammu & Kashmir), it added.
The BJP said the report fails to consider that within the state there is huge discrimination against Ladakh and Jammu regions in terms of development , education , public employment , expenditure and number of elected representatives.
The report fails to recognize that article 370 has been a psychological barrier between the state and the rest of the country. It has prevented investment & integration. It has weakened the constitutional link between the state and the rest of India. Rather than recommending the abolition of such a provision, the report recommends that it be made permanent by suggesting the replacement of word "temporary " with the word " special ". It holds a hope for the future for recreating the offices of "Wazir-e-Azam" and "Sadar-e-Riyasat", it added.
The party said the report recommends the nomination of the Governor to be initiated by the state Assembly. It recommends the review of all post - 1952 laws and their application to the state of Jammu & Kashmir. This is a disastrous step since several laws made applicable to the state after the martyrdom of Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukharjee in 1953 and the Indira-shaikh accord in 1975 will be reconsidered, it added.
It said there are several areas of reservation that the BJP has on this report. ``Our founder Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee sacrificed his life to prevent " two vidhans, two Pradhans and two Nishans " in one country. This report tends to recreate what we have always opposed. The BJP rejects all these aspects of report in their entirety'', it added. |
