NPP protests near Ministry of Home Affairs office

Excelsior Correspondent
NEW DELHI, July 14: Agitated over the frequent reports and rumours of ‘horse trading’ to form the Govt by unethical means in view of the suspended Assembly in J&K, J&K National Panthers  Party (NPP) led by party chairman Harsh Dev Singh held  protest demonstration near the office of Ministry of Home Affairs in New Delhi today.
While accusing BJP of encouraging floor crossing, the leaders and the protesters sought probe into the allegations of allurements offered to the legislators for defecting from their respective parties. They raised slogans against the Central Govt and the BJP.
Addressing the media, Harsh Dev Singh lambasted the BJP for reportedly enticing the rival legislators to convert them into turncoats by unethical practices. “The attempts of horse trading had made the political parties nervous and brittle who were struggling to keep their legislators intact and rescue them from getting trapped into corrupt deals. BJP being the front runner in the dirty game was again indulging in dangerous tactics to form the Govt in J&K on the analogy of Goa and other north eastern States”, Harsh divulged.
“With both the parties, the BJP and INC unable to form the Government on their own in Goa and Manipur after the elections last year, the Saffron Party poached the elected members from the smaller regional parties including the independents to form the bizarre Coalition Governments against the people’s mandate in both the States. Likewise, in Meghalaya which threw a fractured mandate in the elections this year, the impulsive BJP once again stood first in the ‘queue’ to tie the knots with NPP (National People’s Party) and forged an unexpected alliance to form the Government,”  Singh  added.
While condemning the statement of Mehbooba Mufti warning the GoI of serious repercussions if her party was rattled and broken by the Centre, Harsh Dev also held BJP squarely responsible for offering enticements to the rival MLAs in a bid to form a ruling combine by coercion.
