SRINAGAR, Apr 3: Blaming PDP for misleading people under the garb of development of the State, Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president and Cong-NC candidate GA Mir has lashed out at dual policies being adopted by PDP to gain mileage.
Addressing joint election rally in Pulwama, Mir has said that time has gone when PDP used to garner support on sensitive issues like settlement of Kashmir issue, revocation of AFSPA, demilitarization etc and other important issues pertaining to people in the Valley, but all the promises made by this party have proved to be a blatant lie and people continue to suffer due to misrule by the ruling dispensation.
He said PDP for the sake of power sacrificed it’s so-called ideology without caring about the urges and aspiration of the people especially those who voted for this Party in 2014 elections, as a result, there is a mass discontent among the people due to PDP’s joining hands with BJP, the impact of which has engulfed the entire Valley, causing huge losses to both life and property due to uncertainty.
Appealing people of South and Central Kashmir to cast their vote in favour of Cong- NC candidates in the upcoming by-elections, Mir said that victory of INC -NC candidates amounts to strengthening unifying and secular forces in the State.
He cautioned the people of the designs of RSS and other communal forces being supported by PDP and urged upon them (people) to remain vigilant and defeat the nefarious designs of these forces.
Mir also emphasized the need to defeat PDP- BJP Coalition as that will be the defeat of fascist and communal forces vitiating atmosphere of peace and harmony. He described ruling dispensation detrimental to secular fabric of the State.
Speaking on the occasion former minister Taj Mohi-ud-Din urged upon both Cong and NC workers to remain vigilant and defeat the designs of ruling dispensation as both PDP and BJP are desperate enough about the outcome of by-poll, as the PDP has realized that this time, they are going to lose both Lok Sabha seats.
