Early Times Report
SRINAGAR, July 10: Peoples' Democratic Party (PDP) said today that while the state faced huge governance and development deficit things could not be fixed without finding a resolution of political problems."
The political instability has only helped keep accountability and democratic competition out of the system which impacted many generations in J&K and helped vested interests represented and cultivated by National Conference" she told well attended workers meetings at Pattan, Sopore and Baramulla today. Senior leader Maulvi Iftikhar Hussein Ansari and general secretary Mohammad Dilawar Mir also attended the meetings convened to focus on civic problems of these towns.
Mehbooba said resolution of Kashmir and restoration of trust between the state and rest of the country should get priority to achieve over all development and prosperity of Jammu and Kashmir. She said the mistrust was a result of the U turns and flip flop of state's premier political force, the National Conference." They set up different counters at different times to suit the family interests of party's leadership. Soon after independence the party broke ranks with its allies to lead a 22 year struggle for plebiscite in which two generations of Kashmiris got consumed without achieving any thing" she said.
But in 1975, Mehbooba said they did a complete volte face to get power and propounded the ominous 'wavelength with centre' theory to seal the sell out of rivers and power projects.
Soon after losing power the party launched another emotional exploitation enterprise to call for autonomy and restoration of pre 1953 position only to be forgotten once back in power, Mehbooba recalled.She said the rigging in 1987 elections following the power sharing arrangement with Congress proved the proverbial straw on camel's back and people of the state found themselves literally against the wall after they found all democratic options closed on them.
"While this resulted in huge destruction of the state NC made a reappearance as the permanent power brokers convincing the security establishment that while Kashmiris were not worth the country's trust or a democratic system this party alone could keep them leashed with force, POTA and task force etc".
