SRINAGAR, Apr 25: People’s Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti has said that there will be complete white wash of the National Conference in Kashmir after polls in Baramulla and Srinagar Lok Sabha constituencies.
Addressing series of public meetings in Charar-e-Sharief segment of Srinagar Parliamentary constituency, Mehbooba sad that PDP would emerge victorious in the entire Kashmir valley as people are disillusioned with the misrule, bad governance and political back-stabbing of the NC. She said the NC rule reinforced alienation in Kashmir by targeting all sections of society, especially the youth and tried to benefit from it in Anantnag but the hatred against it is so widespread and deep rooted that even an enforced boycott could not help it, she said.
Mehbooba said while a section of people is definitely alienated from the system as a result of NC’s policies, a more matured opinion has been able to realize that NC has now developed a vested interest in instability, violence and anger among the youth, which it is deliberately promoting. “To the contrary, the performance of the PDP in Government and in the opposition has convinced people that this party has stakes in peace, prosperity and development,” she said.
The PDP leader said the people are now able to clearly see and find the difference between the two parties as the NC wants to keep Kashmir boiling. While Dr Abdullah introduced gun culture by rigging the 1987 elections, Omar Abdullah handed stones to youth as a result of his inefficiency and mis-governance, she added.
She alleged that performance of Omar Abdullah Government has been disastrous over the last five years where the ordinary people have to face tremendous hardships. The corruption has touched new heights, power scenario has been worsened and developmental process has taken back seat. This Government has failed to tackle growing unemployment. Now the people have to make clear choice, whether they want to suffer under the burden of NC or want to move ahead and allow the State to grow at par with other developed States of the country.
Senior PDP leaders Gh Nabi Lone, Dr Nazir Ahmed, Abdul Rehman Nengroo and Aftab Ahmed also spoke on the occasion.
