Maverick Jethmalani does it again | | | Early Times Report Jammu, Aug 6: Ram Jethmalani, known for his maverick mannerism and without credible political grooming, makes a statement in line with the character: extreme position by both India and separatists for Kashmir solution should be abandoned. Ram Jethmalani by making this statement has forgotten that he is BJP MP and owes his political standing to the party, which has till now not changed its stand that Kashmir is integral part of the country and has been vocal against separatism in the Kashmir. Jethmalani has maverick record. He regularly posted 10 questions to former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi, he questioned the credibility of another former Prime Minister Chandershekhar and was attacked also. He even had the temerity to contest against former Prime Minister AB Vajpayee, though lost, the party which made him a Union Minister. He had spoken openly not only against the party but also against Vajpayee. The statement from a person with such colorful past reflects his oscillating ideology can't be taken seriously. His meeting with separatist doesn't do any good for him but it does provide some credence to the separatists who are now finding them on fringes of political landscape. Jethmalani, who was sacked by Vajpayee for entering into debate and controversy with former Chief Justice AS Anand, should have gone through his brief before making this statement. He is not in a position to dictate terms to Centre on Kashmir which has already made the report of interlocutors public and has in the past send all party delegation to Kashmir. The man who fought the case of top terrorist Afzal Guru should have either kept his visit a secret, which in any way he is doing for his brownie points, or he shouldn't have stepped out of his brief. The man who is now at the fag end of his life, could have done this much service to the nation, which allowed him to bloom, by not showing disrespect to the national sentiment. |
