Excelsior Correspondent
SRINAGAR, Apr 18: Maintaining that the creation of PDP was done to dilute the Autonomy resolution passed by the State Assembly, Minister for Rural Development and Panchayats and senior National Conference leader, Ali Mohammad Sagar, today said the party is trying to mislead the people by spreading false propaganda for their ulterior motives.
Sagar comments came while addressing huge gatherings at different places in the old city, Srinagar, here today. Senior leaders of the party and other prominent persons from different fields of life were also present on the occasion.
The Rural Development Minister said that the self-rule document was drafted to push the Autonomy resolution to the back burner by the PDP at behest of their political masters and now they are maintaining that NC traded Autonomy to power.
“These speak a lot about their hypocrisy and double speak as the patron of the party is known for floating obnoxious ideas and telling lies”, he added and maintained that the people are wise enough to understand their mechanizations and would give befitting reply to them.
He further added that the people of the State are well aware of the fact that the patron of the PDP during his tenure as the Union Home Minister was instrumental for the enactment of provisions of certain draconian Acts and presiding over several massacres which took place across the Valley, besides ensuring that the people are subjected to miseries and hardships.
Appealing the people to vote en-mass for Dr Farooq Abdullah, Sagar said that PDP is targeting NC by launching vicious propaganda against it, as they are in a habit of doing so since long and have always been defeated in their nefarious designs by the masses.
