SRINAGAR, Dec 8: Former Union Minister and Pradesh Congress Committee president Prof Saif-ud-Din Soz (MP) has alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s rally at Srinagar has turned highly unimpressive and added insult to injury.
“After a great fanfare, Mr Modi’s rally at Srinagar turned out to be highly unimpressive and to add insult to injury, he went to take credit for things which have either not happened or had happened with Mr Modi’s contribution,” Prof Soz said in a press statement this evening.
The reports are that at the most in Modi’s rally 2500 people turned out after a great effort in the length and breadth of Kashmir to collect people, to say the least Mr Modi’s speech was highly disjointed and the content was mere propaganda. First of all, Mr Modi is not aware of what the then Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee meant by saying that Kashmir question would be resolved within the parameters of `Insaniyat’. Mr Modi is very widely recognized in J&K State a strong votary of abrogation of Article 370.
“How can he talk of solution within the parameters of Insaniyat. His silence on Article 370 at this time speaks volumes on his perception of Kashmir problem. Unfortunately, his bravado does not know how to set a limit to his propaganda about things,” Soz added.
While it is true that Army went wrong in opening fire in many situations, it is also true that the Army apologized many times for its wrong actions and that had happened long before Mr Modi was on the scene. Mr Modi forgot that before Nowgam incident, the Army had awarded punishment to five Jawans of the Army in a fake encounter at Machhil (Kupwara). He also did not know that it was CBI which had found Army guilty in fake Machil encounter and had wanted further enquiry by the Court. It was then that the Army instituted Court Martial and found the Army guilty and awarded Punishment. In his (Modi’s) enthusiasm to take credit for everything, he exhibited his taste for running down his Govt’s own institutions, PCC chief maintained.
Mr Modi’s assertion that he represents 120 crore people of India is a cruel joke which only Mr Modi could crack. He should be conscious of the fact all the time that despite his majority in the Lok Sabha he (Mr Modi) had got 31% of the votes and 69% electorates of India had voted against him.
