KISHTWAR, July 27: Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) MLC Firdous Tak said that frustration was simmering within the ranks of National Conference (NC) and Congress in Jammu and Kashmir.
“Congress is a spent force across the country, while NC has reduced itself to Team-B of its alliance partner”, Tak said adding that both the parties were disturbed with the growing popularity of PDP and acceptance of the ruling alliance as a coalition for governance by the masses. This frustration is now visible even in the top ranks, of the two parties, who have started playing emotional card in an attempt to connect with the masses, he stated.
Tak was addressing a rally of the party in Nagsena belt of Kishtwar in the run up to Foundation Day celebration of the party at the district headquarters. Hundreds of political workers from Congress, NC and BJP joined PDP on the occasion and undertook to strengthen the party at grass root level.
He added that various forces in and outside the state had joined hands in order to destabilise the present dispensation. “The opposition parties did not left any stone unturned to fane patience in Kashmir and elsewhere with a hope that they will regain power, the only objective of these political organisations”, he added.
“PDP has not only been able to ensure pro-people and all-round development initiatives during the past two years but it have provided legitimacy to the political set up in Jammu and Kashmir. During its rule, the NC leadership pushed the State into darkness and unending woes. It created a political vacuum and distrust among masses that resulted into chaos”, Tak said.
“The PDP has toiled hard to win back the trust of people who have started reposing faith in political and democratic setup. These achievements of PDP have mounted the level of frustration within the power-hungry National Conference and Congress. Such tricks of NC leadership won’t yield any outcome for it,” he said, adding that PDP has established itself as the only credible regional political force which has the capacity and capability to represent aspirations of people. “We don’t play the politics of deceit”, he asserted.
