BJP’s reckless experimentation with JK resulted in re-emergence of militancy: Harsh

Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, Dec 29: Strongly flaying the present dispensation for its failure to curb militancy and cross border terror being exported to J&K from across the border by the hostile neighbour, Harsh Dev Singh (former minister and chairman AAP J&K SCC) said that mere condemnation of Pakistan could no longer satisfy the people of erstwhile state.
“It was shocking that a hitherto peaceful Jammu region had also become vulnerable during BJP’s proxy rule in the UT. Not only was yesterday’s incident at Sidhra Jammu an eye opener for the Government and security agencies but the earlier militant attacks in Udhampur, Katra, Rajouri and elsewhere in Jammu province had punctured the tall claims of helmsmen of having restored normalcy in the UT,” Harsh Dev Singh said while addressing a press conference, here today.
Holding the BJP regime responsible for the present crisis in J&K, Harsh Dev said that its imprudence and flawed policies had resulted in unabated bloodshed and mayhem claiming precious lives of innocents as well as security personnel. He said that militancy had almost died down in J&K during the popular Governments but the reckless experimentation of the present rulers resulted in gradual deterioration of the security scenario creating early 90’s situation in the erstwhile state.
Accusing the BJP Government of deflecting the blame on Pakistan every day and for every act of violence, Singh questioned the locus of the BJP for continuing in power. “You can’t abdicate your responsibility by merely cursing Pakistan. It is your primary duty and constitutional obligation to protect the lives of the citizens on which count you have miserably failed”, asserted Singh.
Charging the BJP Government with treating J&K as a workshop and conducting weird experimentation over it during the last few years, Harsh Dev said that such a flawed approach of the Centre had led to massive complications with an all-round disenchantment prevailing in the new UT as a consequence thereof.
