UDHAMPUR, Nov 21: “Scared of rising popularity of BJP Government at the Centre and Coalition Government in Jammu and Kashmir State, National Conference (NC) chief Farooq Abdullah is speaking ill against RSS only to mislead masses. To regain his party’s lost ground he is now misleading people by his rhetorics and has even went ahead to distort facts about RSS and the constructive role it plays in uniting India”.
This was stated by BJP vice president Yudhvir Sethi while replying to queries of media persons after attending Saptah meeting organised by Dinesh Bharti at Udhampur today. He said RSS ever since its existence had been uniting countrymen with mainstream and trying to remember sacrifices of hundreds of unsung heroes of India’s Independence war against Britishers.
RSS, he added, was never and can never be against anyone but is trying to unite country. Now that a system of good governance has been established in J&K State, NC is feeling threatened. To keep their flock together, NC chief and his son are trying to issue baseless statements, Yudhvir Sethi said.
He said Farooq Abdullah is a failed leader who spoiled the State and its composite culture. It was because of his non-serious attitude that his Government was dismissed twice that led to imposition of Governor Rule in J&K putting democracy on back burner.
“It’s this Abdullah dynasty or its three generations who had always been speaking one thing in Delhi, another in Jammu and different in Srinagar just to exploit people’s sentiments and grab power,” Yudhvir Sethi said and added that Farooq Abdullah also raises autonomy issue and even appointed Dr Karan Singh as chairman of State Autonomy Committee. Unfortunately even Dr Karan Singh resigned from the post and that report never saw light of the day, he further said.
“Instead of performing to the best satisfaction of people and percolating democracy to the grass root level by holding elections to Panchayats and Municipalities besides local bodies NC and its Chief Farooq Abdullah always confused people by raising unproductive issues like that of autonomy or Pre-53 statuses – moves that have lost all relevancies,” Sethi said and reminded that Farooq Abdullah who is accusing RSS was once part of BJP government at the Centre. Back home he and his son encouraged corruption and pushed the State towards complete anarchy. Now that BJP and PDP are doing well NC is not able to digest a transparent and accountable Government which is sensitive to people’s issues,” he said.
Earlier Dinesh Bharti recited Ram Katha and asked devotees to work for upliftment of downtrodden. He also asked people to unite India and work towards strengthening it without cast, creed, region or religion.
