JAMMU, Mar 8: Chairman of IkkJutt, Ankur Sharma has said that conducting delimitation of Assembly/ Parliamentary Constituencies on the basis of Census 2011 was the surest way to once again sell out Jammu and keep it hostage to fundamentalist Kashmiri hegemony.
Demanding cancellation of the recently issued notification providing for the constitution of a delimitation Commission tasked to delimit constituencies on the basis of 2011 Census, he stressed that the Government should wait for the results of 2021 Census operations, the process for which is scheduled to be initiated in April 2020 before starting the new delimitation exercise.

Alleged that fraud and fudged census in J&K has always been a conspiracy against Jammu hatched by the successive Central Governments in active connivance with the Kashmiri power centres, he said that it was only because of the fudged Census that Kashmir’s population was falsely shown to have increased by 14, 11,000 in 10 years from 2001 to 2011 whereas the average population growth of Jammu province which was 31 percent between 1971-2001 dropped to 21 percent in 2011. “Due to migration within and outside the State on account of Hindu and Sikh genocide in Kashmir, the percentage growth in Kashmir’s population should have been lower but it grew by 26 percent post 1991; and population of Muslims as a percentage of total population increased by 4.12 percent whilst that of Hindus and Sikhs fell by 4.27 percent,” he explained.
Ankur Sharma said that the decision of Government of India to conduct new delimitation of Legislative constituencies on the basis of fraudulent 2011 Census is a betrayal of national interests in J&K. “It is a naked conspiracy to defeat the very purpose of neutralization of Article 370 and reorganizing the erstwhile State into two Union Territories. Delimitation on the basis of 2011 census will only consolidate Muslim hegemony and perpetuate Jammu and Kashmir as a Muslim Domain apart from rest of India”, said Ankur Sharma.
Ankur Sharma further said this new conspiracy has its epicentre within the Sangh-BJP and these are those few individuals who had supported peace engagement with Pakistan on the basis of Musharraf Plan and subsequently pushed BJP into alliance with PDP on the basis of subversive ‘Agenda of Alliance’. “They have been working overnight to fail what Narendra Modi and Amit Shah did on 5th August, 2019,” he added.
