SRINAGAR, Aug 27: Senior vice president of Jammu and Kashmir Peoples Conference and former minister Abdul Gani Vakil today lashed out at the NC and PDP leadership for their “double speak” which is aimed to mislead the people of Jammu and Kashmir for their political gains which has been their history.
Addressing various gatherings in different villages of Rafiabad, Vakil asked people to remain cautious of these people who say one thing in Srinagar and another thing in Delhi.
“It has been history of these politicians and parties. Their political history is based on deception, lies and dual policy and they can go to any extreme of lies for political gains” he said.
Coming down heavily on the NC and PDP leadership, Vakil said the leadership got exposed when they failed to speak even a word on the revocation of Article 370 during the Opposition Parties meeting in Delhi presided by Congress president Sonia Gandhi. They missed a golden opportunity to convince opposition parties that abrogation of Article 370 was a big mistake by the Central Government as it had distanced the people to large extent from the mainstream.
Vakil stressed on NC and PDP leadership to come clear on their stand on Article 370. “They can’t lie to the people of J&K and then fail to deliver in New Delhi,” he said.
Speaking on Article 370 in Delhi is more fruitful and valuable rather to speak in Gupkar which is simply to exploit and deceive the people of J&K. This has exposed their double policy otherwise it was a good platform for the NC and PDP leadership to speak about Articles 370 and 35-A but unfortunately, they couldn’t speak a word and failed to deliver.” Vakil added.
Besides others, who spoke in the meetings include- block president Tariq Ahmad Mir, general secretary Abdul Salam Naikoo, Chairman Mohammad Muzzaffar Naikoo and several others.
