NAGROTA, Mar 31: Political Advisor to the Chief Minister, Devender Singh Rana today said that PDP and its leadership is the fountain head of divisive politics and has a history of dividing people in the name of religion, region, sub-region, ethnicity, caste and creed.
“The PDP has left deep scars on the minds of the people of by inflicting on them the miseries of 2008 row and rather than being repentful, they are still indulging in politics of deceit and trying to create communal disharmony and fissures between the different regions and sub-regions of the state”, he said, adding all such moves of the PDP will be resisted tooth and nail by the National Conference and the party will expose their nefarious designs.
Addressing a public meeting at Panchayat Aithem in Nagrota constituency, Mr Rana said that the PDP leadership’s only aim is to grab power and for that they can adopt any means howsoever dubious they may be. He said they (PDP) have no ideology and speak one language in Kashmir another in Jammu and an absolutely different language in Delhi.
He said that the innovative, befitting and historical initiatives taken by Omar Abdullah-led coalition government for the overall development of the state itself speak of their efficacy as these have been recognized throughout the country and the PDP’s propaganda cannot eclipse these glowing initiatives taken by the Omar-led Government to empower the common man at the grass root.
Addressing the public meeting, Rattan Lal Gupta, Provincial President National Conference listed the achievements of present government.
He said that holding of panchayat elections after a period of over 30 years is a historic event in itself and empowerment of these democratic institutions is yet another historic decision.

He said that the enactment of Public Service Guarantee Act and its implementation in the State bringing 6 departments of Housing, Transport, CAPD, PHE, Revenue and Power under its ambit is yet another historic and innovative decision of Omar Abdullah-led Government.
