Budgam, July 2: Chief Minister and Working President National Conference, Omar Abdullah today asked the people to teach a befitting lesson to the ‘amalgam of opportunists’ hatching conspiracy against the State and its people to grab power.
“They have converged yet again to confuse the people by unleashing false and baseless propaganda against National Conference and the Government to attempt at power grabbing”, he said and added that people are well-versed to read between the lines and understand the only agenda of these elements to seek power at any cost.
Addressing National Conference Workers meetings in Khan Sahib, Budgam and other areas today, Omar Abdullah said that falsehood is always short lived and it cannot defeat the sincerity and truthfulness.
Amid thunderous applause by hundreds of NC workers, Omar Abdullah recited the famous couplet “Batil Say Dabnay Walay Ay Aasman Nahi Hum; Sobar Kar Chuka Ha Tu Imtihan Hamara” (The Cosmos is witness that we have never succumbed before negative forces. Our trait has been tested hundreds of times by the World”. He referred to the history of sacrifices and struggle rendered by National Conference, its leadership and brave workers during the difficult and challenging times.
Omar Abdullah said that NC belongs to common people. “It represents the aspirations of all shades of people. It has proved its mettle time and again. Its fountain head of strength is commoners. It has withstood onslaughts of conspirators always with the highest support of masses emerging victorious”, he maintained and expressed confidence over the workers of National Conference that they will steer the party once again through tumult waters to achieve the cherished goal of ‘Naya Kashmir’.
“Your detractors are out to put all hurdles in your way. They want to damage National Conference. This has been their long desire but like in the past you teach them a lesson again and put down their castle of ill designs to the ground”, he said asking NC rank and file to make the opponents bite the dust in forthcoming elections by handing over people’s overwhelming verdict against them.
The Working President National Conference castigated PDP for its bizarre behaviour of making the party safe castle for the elements having corruption charges and bad reputation. He said that this has punctured the balloon of falsehood of PDP crying hoarse against corruption. He said by inducting elements with charges of corruption in the party fold and allotting tickets to them speaks volumes about the lust of the party to grab power by hook or crock. He said they cannot fool people who know everything what is being cooked to divide them for power politics.
Omar Abdullah also mentioned the measures of e-tendering, e-procurement and 3rd party independent monitoring of development projects besides making formulation of Results Framework Document essential for every department so that at the end of the year the performance of these departments could be ascertained as per their own set gauge.
The Chief Minister mentioned the stupendous task undertaken by the Government during the last over five years on road communication sector and referred to the construction of over 450 road projects and 265 bridges. He also mentioned construction of 10000 kilometres of new roads and upgrading and blacktopping of 19000 kilometres during the last over five years. He said that linking remote and far-flung areas with main highways received focused attention during his Government, adding that over 700 schemes have been completed under PMGSY during this period.
Omar Abdullah also listed achievements of the Government in the other development fields and urged National Conference workers to disseminate the information about these to the grass roots.
Party General Secretary Ali Mohammad Sagar and Provincial President National Conference, Kashmir, Nasir Aslam Wani also addressed the meetings.
