SRINAGAR, Apr 17: Stressing the agenda of hope, peace and prosperity of her party, People’s Democratic Party (PDP) president Mehbooba Mufti has said it was not only unfair to club her party with the National Conference but part of a design to paint entire mainstream black because of the misdeeds of the present ruling dispensation.
Addressing party workers meeting at Uri border town, she said on no scale the PDP, which is youngest party of the State, could be compared with NC that has been in the driver’s seat for the maximum time of the last one century. “Speaking of PDP and NC in the same breath as objects of hate is in fact an attempt by its apologists to bail out the ruling party of six decades and create an impression of non availability of an alternative to it,” she said.
Mehbooba said it was most unfair that places like Uri that suffer huge damage to environment on account of the construction of power projects are not compensated. “While power produced here illuminates lives everywhere else the area itself is drowned in darkness as a result of wrong one sided agreements with the NHPC entered by the NC,’ she said.
Speaking on this occasion senior leader Molvi Iftikhar Hussain Ansari said that NC has every time befooled people with hollow slogans for vote and use the power to make money resulting in huge scams and scandals like recently drug scam etc.
PDP general secretary Mohammed Dilawar Mir also spoke on the occasion.
