JAMMU, Feb 17: Panun Kashmir (PK) has urged the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi to take a decisive action in Jammu and Kashmir State in crushing the terrorism, secessionists and separatist forces once for all.
In a letter to Prime Minister, PK president, Ashwani Kumar Chrungoo said it is high time to take some drastic steps in Kashmir to crush the terrorism and secessionism. He urged the PM that for such a decision he can take nation along with, for a formal burial to the mind set behind terrorism in Kashmir. The letter said the entire nation is pinning high hopes in the leadership of Narendra Modi who has capacity and capability of doing it with the support of patriotic people of the country.
The letter said that the entire nation looks towards PM at this juncture to fulfill the aspirations of Indian’s great nationalists and patriots who made supreme sacrifices over the last seven decades with the Tricolour in hands in the State of J&K.
The letter further said the one of the drastic steps taken by the Government at this juncture is abrogation of Article 370 and other Articles which give the State of J&K a special Constitutional position and which in other words is the basis of present mess and crisis in the State.
It said the Governor is empowered under President’s rule to lift the Article 370 with a reference to the President of India for ultimate sanction. Likewise the another Article of Indian Constitution which was promulgated under Presidential Order of 1954 without any approval of Parliament can also be withdrawn under the same presidential reference, he added.
Chrungoo in his letter said that both the political initiatives will have to be put before Parliament within six months and in between the nation will go for general elections. This will be best opportunity to get the resolve approved by the people in the elections before the constitution of 17th Lok Sabha. The Parliament can later take up the issue once the elections are over and the 17th Lok Sabha comes into existence.
It said the internal dimensions are more strategic and result oriented since they have a broader message not only for Kashmir but for whole of the nation, Pakistan and the world. This would be the biggest and the richest tribute and homage to the martyred soldiers of Bharat Mata who laid down their lives for all of us, the letter added.
