JAMMU, Mar 14: Close after the boycott of the current Assembly session, Legislators of People’s Democratic Party met here today under the leadership of Mehbooba Mufti and took stock of the situation arising out of killings at Srinagar and the subsequent imposition of curfew in various parts of Kashmir.
The Legislature party expressed grave concern over the perpetuation of uncertainty at all levels, further compounded by incidents of violence taking its toll. They lamented on the Government’s callous attitude also towards the institutions which are witness to progressive downfall and degeneration. Even the Assembly was reduced to a theatre by the ruling class who made deliberate attempts to make mockery of the serious issues and did not hesitate from use of force to muzzle the genuine voice.
They said the Chief Minister’s admission of helplessness was a telling account of surrender of authority. But worst was witnessed when the ruling class refused to assert for dignity and honour of the institution.
PDP Legislators said that onus is now on the Indian civil society to bring the Jammu and Kashmir out of the present morass and provide an honorable way out from State of helplessness. If they also fail in their duty to rise to the occasion the situation brewing up in the State will cause a serious damage to entire polity, they cautioned.
Those who attended the meeting included Moulvi Iftikar Hussain Ansari, Mohammad Sartaj Madni, Abdul Rehman Veeri, Abdul Gaffar Sofi, Mohammad Khalil Bandh, Sayeed Bashir Ahmad, Javed Mustafa Mir, Nizamuddin Bhat, Basharat Bukhari, Abdul Haq Khan, Sardar Rafiq Hussain Khan, Abdul Razak Wagay, Choudhary Zulfikar, Zahoor Ahmed Mir, Peerzada Mansoor Hussain, Mushtaq Ahmed Shah, Dr Mohammed Shafi, Mohammad Ashraf Mir and Sayeed Asgar Ali.
