JAMMU, Mar 21: Prof Bhim Singh, chief patron NPP, today accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Government of trying to repeat emergency days of 1975 which is evident from the latest unconstitutional adventure in Uttrakhand.
Addressing a Panthers Party workers rally at Suchetgarh, Bhim Singh alleged that BJP in Uttrakhand was plucking Congress Legislators from the Party and using them as guinea pigs in the Assembly to topple an elected Government by fraud and in utter violation of the mandate of the Constitution. “The MLAs who voluntarily defected from the Congress stand expelled and therefore they have no legal right to continue as MLAs. This is the law of the land and Modi or his Amit Shah cannot act as dictators,” he said.
Prof Singh also accused the BJP of playing fraud with the people of J&K by joining hands with those who do not salute India nor accept J&K as integral part of the India.
He said PM Modi and his advisors have no idea about the situation prevailing in J&K nor they have any information on the historical background vis-a-vis the Accession of the State with the rest of the country.
He asked, “Does PM know the intriguing language used in Article 370? Does he know that the Article 370 collapsed on August 20, 1952 when so called State Constituent Assembly abolished monarchy in the State? Does he know that J&K was not merged in the Union of India when all States joined the Union of India by 26th January 1950? Does PM know that the Parliament has no jurisdiction to make any law vis-a-vis Jammu and Kashmir?”
Bhim Singh said that the Prime Minister and his team should find out the answers to these questions before he finally takes a dig in the politics of Jammu and Kashmir.
Others who addressed the rally included Anita Thakur, Ashok Randawa, Sham Gorkha and Advocate Kesar Parveen.
