JAMMU, Jan 22: Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has again resorted back to play its dirty politics based on communal, regional divide to gain votes with public sympathy, stated Choudhary Haroon, State president, BJP ST Morcha.
Choudhary Haroon who was flanked by Morcha State vice-presidents, Ch. Mohd. Ashraf (Poonch) & Abdul Rehman Tikri (Kashmir), Ali Mohammad, Imran Choudhary, Moulvi Manzoor Hussain was addressing the press conference here today.
Choudhary Haroon strongly condemned the recent statement issued by former Chief Minister of J&K, Mehbooba Mufti that Gujjars are facing discrimination. He utterly denied the claim of former Chief Minister that the Gujjars of Jammu region are facing any type of discrimination. He said that the former CM has reverted back to the agenda. She is trying to play emotional card to gain cheap publicity for getting votes in upcoming elections by raising communal and regional agenda, he alleged.
Ch. Harron asked the former CM to keep her pseudo love affair for the community to herself only and not to drag the innocent community members into her political game.
He said if any discrimination is there, it was done by her, her party and other Valley based parties and now again the Valley politicians are day dreaming that they can play communal and regional card for their petty political gain.
Harron, said that these shrewd politicians change their tone according to their suitability. They sing entirely different songs in Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh. And this, they do deliberately, for flaring up communal tensions in the region. “We have lived in communal harmony since centuries and long to live so for coming centuries and PDP supremo must not try to disturb the prevailing peace”, he insisted.
Haroon said that in past, PDP did nothing for the betterment of the community and now when the power has slipped out of her hands and she has lost ground in the whole of the State, she is afraid of going into the fair elections and so trying to raise communal issues. Gujjar community, now know, that only the PM Modi led Government is dedicated to the true development of all communities and all regions without any bias and will whole heatedly support the BJP in coming elections.
