PDP pushing J&K into development inertia: NC

28/03/2017

Srinagar, Mar 27: Opposition National Conference today attacked the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), accusing it of betrayal, vitiating the atmosphere and pushing Jammu and Kashmir into development inertia.
"There are numerous instances of betrayal perpetrated by the PDP leadership in different avatars. It came to power in 2015 with those (BJP) it vehemently opposed during 2014 electioneering," senior NC leader Abdul Rahim Rather said addressing election meetings in Chrar-e-Sharief assembly segment in central Kashmir's Budgam district.
"The PDP will have to explain to people why it became instrumental in bringing BJP and RSS into Kashmir," he said.
The former minister blamed the PDP-BJP coalition for pushing Jammu and Kashmir into developmental inertia with utility services in disarray as a result of which the people are suffering on account of power and drinking water.
"The mis-governance has taken toll on every sector and the people are suffering on account of basic minimum needs," he said.
Rather alleged that vote to PDP in upcoming by-polls will amount to action that innocent boys and girls had to face in the Valley and also approval to extension of fascist ideology" in Jammu and Kashmir.
Senior NC leader and former Minister Mian Altaf Ahmad also slammed PDP for creating an "environment of fear and uncertainty" across Kashmir, saying "the people are yet to come out of the trauma of 2016 gruesome incidents".
He said the "insensitive" PDP leaders, instead of feeling "remorse over making young boys and girls fodder for pellet guns, mocked at their helplessness rather than making the security forces accountable".
NC General Secretary Ali Mohammed Sagar castigated the PDP-BJP dispensation for creating "deep wedge" between the regions and people belonging to various religions as per their "political exigencies".
"While the BJP is pursuing its larger Hindutva agenda, the PDP is becoming a willing facilitator in terms of targeting innocent Kashmiris to appease New Delhi," Sagar said addressing workers at various places here.
