SRINAGAR, Jan 19: Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) office in Kashmir has been vandalized for second time as Jammu and Kashmir Government is not paying concern towards providing security cover to the Party offices and cadre which is a deliberate attempt to demoralize leaders to weaken the Party’s structure.
The AAP office in Kashmir was earlier vandalized on 1st of January while second incident has taken place on Wednesday evening.
AAP leaders including general secretary Central Kashmir zone Syed Muzamil Rizvi, Youth president Central Kashmir Jibran Dar and Youth president North Kashmir Hakim Rizwan Illahi in their statement mentioned about these incidents of vandalism of party office in Kashmir and said that these are not incidents of vandalism of a party office but an assault on democratic setup.
They said that an incident of vandalism happened on January 1 and second incident on yesterday evening and these twin incidents have shown that some elements in society are hell bent to target AAP. “More importantly the failure of LG Administration of J&K to provide security cover to AAP cadre and offices is grave concern and it seem a deliberate attempt to weaken party leadership and to expose it to risk,” said AAP leaders.
“J&K Government is paying no concern for security cover of AAP leadership and offices and multiple requests placed by party leadership have been ignored,” they said.
Meanwhile, Member of Parliament (Rajya Sabha) and leader of the Party in Rajya Sabha Sanjay Singh has also established a written communication with Lieutenant Governor of J&K Manoj Sinha with request for security of AAP position holders and office premises.
In his official communication, MP Sanjay Singh has mentioned about attack by some unidentified people on the Party office and constant threat being faced by AAP leaders especially while moving in their respective areas.
“I would like to request you to provide security to the Party’s provincial incharge and district president”, Sanjay Singh further mentioned in his letter.
