PDP concerns over perpetuation of uncertainty in JK

Jammu, March 14 (Scoop News) -Close after  the boycott of the current Assembly session , legislators of Peoples Democratic Party met here today under the leadership of Mehbooba Mufti and took stock of the situation arising out of killings at Srinagar and the subsequent imposition of curfew in various parts of Kashmir.

   The legislature party expressed grave concern over the perpetuation of uncertainty at all levels , further compounded by incidents of violence taking its toll . They said the worst is witnessed in Government’s brazen attempt to  conceal truth and refuse to acknowledge its failures and mis- governance.   Ruling class has become oblivious and insensitive and is hell bent to further vitiate the peace and tranquility of the state.  “ It has become a ritual with National Conference leaders to thrive on uncertainty , “ the PDP legislators observed adding that is why the  loss of lives and property followed by increasing stringency has become order of the day.

The legislators lament on the Government’s callous attitude also towards the institutions which are witness to progressive downfall and degeneration.  Even the Assembly was reduced to a theatre by the ruling class who day in and day out enacted dramas and exhibited  utter disregard for  norms of business and respect for elected representatives and their views and sentiments.  They said most of the time it was felt that the ruling class made deliberate attempts to make mockery of the serious issues and did not hesitate from   use of force to muzzle the genuine voice. The august forum was rendered useless with no regard for its sanctity and authority  and ruling class felt happy at compromising its legitimacy, the PDP legislature group felt.

They said the Chief Minister’s admission of helplessness was a telling account of surrender of authority. But worst was witnessed when the ruling class refused to assert for dignity and honour of the institution . 

   PDP legislators said that onus is now on the Indian civil society to bring the Jammu and Kashmir state out of the present morass and provide an honorable way out from state of helplessness. If they also fail in their duty to rise to the occasion the situation brewing up in the state will cause a serious damage to entire polity , they cautioned.

Those who attended the meeting included Moulvi Iftikar Hussain Ansari, Mohammad Sartaj Mandi, Abdul Rehman Veeri,  Abdul Gaffar Sofi, Mohammad Khalil Bandh, Sayeed Bashir Ahmad, Javed Mustafa Mir, Nizamuddin Bhat, Basharat Bukhari, Abdul Haq Khan, Sardar Rafiq Hussain Khan, Abdul Razak Wagay, Choudhary Zulfikar,  Zahoor Ahmed Mir, Peerzada Mansoor Hussain, Mushtaq Ahmed Shah, Dr Mohammed Shafi, Mohammad Ashraf Mir, Sayeed Asgar Ali.
