JAMMU, Apr 24: Former Minister Abdul Gani Vakil today described the screaming and passing of Autonomy resolution by National Conference in its Working Committee as political opportunism and said everybody knows that by-elections are to be held in the State in near future therefore, NC has started to change its colors like a chameleon and started singing Autonomy song once again.
In a press statement here former Social Welfare Minister said that for the lust of power NC never raised its voice or resisted humiliating rejection of Autonomy report by the NDA Government during Vajpayee’s tenure but it preferred to remain silent for the fear of losing power. Moreover, PDP allied with BJP which it declared untouchable during last Assembly elections and put in dust bin its much hyped self rule formula.
Mr Vakil appealed everyone to introspect and recall befooling and exploitation at the hands of NC and PDP for cheap political gains and not to become victims of so called autonomy and self- rule politics. He said that the moment NC or PDP gain power, they forget and relegate all issues particularly Autonomy or Self Rule for grabbing it.
Vakil reminded PDP and NC that people of the State are now wise enough to understand political gimmicks and can’t be befooled anymore. Former Minister said that occurrence of incidents at NIT Srinagar, Handwara, Rajouri and now Aligarh Muslim University must be eye opener for PDP, therefore, it is imperative upon its leadership to remain vigilant and not let the situation go out of control here because the ideology of BJP is disharmonious and communal which reflects in tackling of NIT Srinagar issue by BJP through Union HRD Ministry.
