SRINAGAR, May 29: National Conference lashed out at PDP and Chief Minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed for lying on the issue of allocation of land for separate composite townships for Kashmiri Pandits as Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh in his statement said that the State Government had been directed to identify land for this purpose.
During a district convention of the party held at Dak Bungalow, Baramulla, senior party leaders said PDP’s dual speak on this issue was dangerous and concealed an obvious sell-out to BJP on this very sensitive issue.
Addressing party delegates, office bearers and workers at the convention, senior NC leaders including general secretary Ali Mohammad Sagar, Mohammad Akbar Lone, Mohammad Shafi Uri, Provincial President Nasir Aslam Wani, Showkat Ahmed Mir, Javaid Ahmed Dar, Ghulam Hassan Rahi, Mohammad Ashraf Ganai, Shahid Ali Shah, Ghulam Rasool Naaz, Mohammad Yaqoob Wani asked PDP to clarify its position on the issue of allocation of land for composite townships.
Lashing out at PDP, Ali Mohammad Sagar said Chief Minister should come clean on Rajnath Singh’s statement where Singh has said that the State Government is in the process of identifying land for the composite townships.
“He (Mufti) has sold one blank cheque after another and handed it over to BJP. Be it the issue of Article 370, the issue of West Pakistan Refugees, the issue of Power Projects or the issue of ‘Battle of Ideas’ with the Separatist leaders–PDP has effortlessly surrendered on every key and sensitive issue. Every week there is a new expose or a revelation about PDP’s sell-out to BJP”, Sagar said.
NC Provincial President Nasir Aslam Wani said PDP should stop hiding behind its theatrics and smokescreens and come clean on its sell-outs to the BJP. There is virtually no Government in the State. People are without salaries, contractors without funds, and flood victims haven’t seen an iota of the compensation and relief that PDP had promised before elections. The State is rudderless”, he added.
The NC leaders asked the party delegates and cadre to reach out to the people and work with them in holding this Government accountable for the promises it made before elections.
