JAMMU, Oct 13: Concerned over the fast deteriorating situation in J&K and failure of BJP-PDP coalition to restore law and order, NPP chairman Harsh Dev Singh sought imposition of Governor Rule in the State without any further delay.
While briefing media persons here today, Singh also announced NPP’s reconstituted Secretariat and Executive body.
Expressing serious concern over the breakdown of administrative and constitutional machinery in the State which had witnessed glorification of secessionists, frequent terror attacks on security and defense personnel, intensified cease fire violation from across the border, assault on Amar Nath Ji pilgrims, civil unrest, clashes, public attacks on police stations and security forces in Kashmir, Harsh Dev said that the Ministers who ought to have come out of their hiding and made them-selves available to the civil society had deliriously shun their responsibility thus allowing the situation to further deteriorate.
Regretting that the separatists, subversives and anti nationals had virtually taken control of the situation in the valley, he deplored the portrayal of Asiya Andrabi, Chairperson of DeM as woman achiever along with the women legends of the country and the State in the banner of “Beti Padhao, Beti Bachao” during an official function in Anantnag recently. He said that only last year during the tourism festival in Kashmir, the name of “Hari Parbhat” was shown as “Kohi-maran”.
He said that the incumbent BJP-PDP Government had to accept the responsibility for such obnoxious moves that had whipped up passions not only in the state but all across the country.
Meanwhile, Harsh Dev Singh also announced JKNPP’s reconstituted Secretariat and Executive body which comprised Bansi Lal Sharma Advisor, P K Ganju senior vice president, Masood Andrabi, Mohd Iqbal Choudhary- vice presidents; Anita Thakur, Yash Paul Kundal, Manju Singh, Basharat Ali, Sukhdev Singh, Maqbool Malik- general secretaries; Rajinder Singh, Jagdev Singh, Gagan Pratap Singh, Shiv Charan Singh, Romesh Khajuria, Vilakshan Singh, Shanker Singh Chib, Balwan Singh, Sudesh Kumar Sharma, Shyam Gorkha, Ajay Singh, Dhani Ram Attri, Zorawar Singh, Mushtaq Ahmad Choudhary- secretaries; Kesar Parveen, Bashir-u-din, Khajoor Singh, Capt Narotam Singh, Desh Ratan Pandita- joint secretaries; Rajesh Padgotra (provincial president Jammu Pradesh), Farooq Ahmad Dar (Provincial president Kashmir Valley); Provincial general secretaries (Jammu)- Shiv Dev Singh, Kewal Krishan Sharma, Naresh Chib and Rakesh Gupta.
