Srinagar: In an overcrowded press conference here today Er Rasheed reiterated that no doubt end of collation is victory of people’s resistance but the way BJP took everyone especially PDP by surprise is not less than a slap on the face of regional parties who have been making tall but false claims of fighting for protecting the special status and other interests of state.
Er Rasheed said: “Both NC and PDP seem to have failed to understand the physiological aspect of BJP’s withdrawing support to Mehbooba government. It is proven yet again that for Delhi whosoever rules Jammu and Kashmir, his worth is nothing but even lesser than the significance of a tissue paper.
“The statements coming from various quarters of threatening Kashmiris and using muscular power besides BJP’s top leaders starting talking about abolishing article 370 should wakeup us all including those outside election politics,” Er Rasheed said.
Er Rasheed added “Everyone knows that NC and PDP have no ideological differences but it is their lust for power, ego and dictate of New Delhi that they oppose each other. Despite not having no sympathy with Mehbooba Mufti, Kashmiris have been feeling a sense of defeat the way BJP has dictated everything from 2014 till date and ultimately overthrowing Mehbooba.”
“It is high time for NC and PDP to give up their egos and form a government and bury the past to start an era where from they should dictate terms to Delhi rather becoming its mouthpieces. Their joining hands with the purpose to restore dignity and honor of people of Jammu & Kashmir will boost the morale of all thoughts of Kashmiris,” said Er Rasheed.
“To restore trust between themselves and win the confidence of masses. NC and PDP can nominate some prominent credible person who should not be a member of any house as chief minister. It will give Kashmiris a genuine feeler that NC and PDP are not doing it to get power but are sincere to resolve Kashmir dispute and make New Delhi understand that it cannot humiliate Kashmiri leaders from late Sheikh Sahab to Mehbooba Mufti, at a timing of its own choice,” he said.
