srinagar, Aug 24: Veteran National Conference leader and top rank Minister in present regime today reiterated that National Conference will never compromise on its key political agenda and it (NC) was committed to Autonomy of the State.
"We are committed to Autonomy of the State, for which a resolution has been passed by the State Assembly. No one can reject the resolution and we will never compromise on it", the said NC Minister told a local news agency here today.
Regarding differences between members of the two coalition parties over Justice Sagheer Working Group (WG) Recommendations, he said the Cabinet Sub Committee (CSC) studying the Justice Sagheer report is yet to submit its final report to the State Cabinet.
"It is a sensitive matter. The final report is yet to be submitted to the State Cabinet, however, autonomy is our agenda and we will stick to it", he underlined not leaving the dream project of NC i.e. the 'autonomy.'
Regarding the differences between members of the CSC, he said "everyone is entitled to his point of view and the CSC members have the right to have their own opinion", adding if anyone calls autonomy a closed chapter, it is his personal opinion.
"Sagheer Committee is an eight member committee and accommodates members from all regions of the State", he added.
Dispelling reports of dispute within the coalition Government, the NC leader pin pointed that the Government is running in a cordial atmosphere.
To substantiate he promptly added that all coalition coordination committee meetings were held in a cordial atmosphere. "Wherever there were differences, a healthy discussion was held and matters were resolved," he, however, added.
Regarding growing dissatisfaction among Congress workers, he said, "everything is fine in the coalition, however, they can raise matters within their own party".
Replying a query about the growing discontent among people regarding Governance, the senior NC leader said it is not possible for the Government to fulfill all desires of people. "In every democracy, there are expectations, however, the Government's resources are limited and requirements are huge", he said adding the governance in the State over the past three years has been exemplary.
The NC stalwart, also said unemployment was a huge challenge not only to J&K but to the whole of India and Government cannot absorb everyone.
"For last 3 years, the Government has appointed 40000 youth and surveys tell us that 6 lakh youth are unemployed in the State. Since 1947 the State has employed only 4 and a half lakh youth, how can we provide Government jobs to 6 lakh youths in 6 years", he added.
The seasoned politician expressed surprise over attacks against his own person from different quarters.
I fail to understand why I have been personally attacked during past three years", he said further adding, "some vested interests were hell bent upon maligning his image."
"No body has been able to prove anything against me, he said categorically and with sheer confidence, adding, " even opposition leaders too leveled allegations against me but had to apologize later.'
