JAMMU, Dec 19: Dr Mahesh Kaul’s book titled Jammu and Kashmir Breaking Subversion Web and A Way Forward hits the stands today.
The book was released by BJP State president Ravinder Raina at a simple but impressive function held at Press Club here this afternoon which was attended by a galaxy of intellectuals and prominent citizens.
Addressing the gathering BJP president Ravinder Raina said “The Book is a comprehensive document that challenges the false narrative on Jammu and Kashmir to give illegitimate space to the subversives who were being patronized by the State and allowed to wreck the Indian nation from the State. The truth about the nationalist people of J&K was never told’’, he added.
He said “What we witnessed in 1990 in terms of the religious cleansing of Kashmiri Pandits is clear case of genocide. The selective killings of nationalist leaders like Tika Lal Taploo, Prem Nath Bhat besides the inhuman murder of innocent people like Sarla Bhat exposes the communal and anti national agenda of Jehadis and their mentors in Pakistan’’, he added.
Sham Lal Sharma former Minister who was guest of honur said “ We have witnessed tremendous onslaught on the nationalist forces in J&K and this was being done by the forces inimical to the unity and integrity of India’’,
Ajay Bharti former MLC in his speech said “ This book is an apt instrument to defeat the false narrative on Jammu and Kashmir. The persecutor is being projected as the persecuted as lies are being repeated as truths when it comes to J&K’’, he added.
PK chairman Dr Ajay Chrungoo in his address dwelt at length on subjects of the book and said neutralization of 370, scrapping of 35 A and CAB will generate a new discourse of India for its renaissance and strengthen the cultural and civilizational India.
Dr S D S Jamwal, Director S K Police Academy said first time the book has been written that delves at length with the problem of insurgency in J&K while author Mahesh Kaul said J&K is the frontline of Indian nation that has stood as the bulwark against the fissiparous tendencies in dismantling of the Northern Frontier of India.
