Mehbooba’s fear of Anantnag loss shameful: NCAnantnag, May 15 : National Conference on Sunday said Chief Minis-ter Mehbooba Mufti’s fear of losing the Anantnag by-election was shameful and tragic and said it had yet again highlighted PDP’s imminent political rout from the State. Addressing a day-long workers’ convention at Anziwala, Anantnag Senior National Conference lead-ers lashed out at the PDP-BJP Government for foist-ing an unholy, opportunis-tic political alliance on the people of the State and said PDP’s shocking ideological u-turn had rendered the

party unpalatable in every nook and corner of the State. National Conference General Secretary Haji Ali Mohammad Sagar said this was the first time in the history of the State and perhaps the entire country that a sitting Chief Minis-ter was openly terrified of her own electoral defeat. “Mehbooba Mufti lied to the Election Commission and used her political influence in the ruling circles in New Delhi to get the Anantnag Assembly Seat by-election postponed. She knows her defeat from Anantnag is a foregone conclusion and

hence she will go to any extent to run away from her electoral test till she possi-bly can. Nothing could be a clearer self-indictment and confession of failure than the Chief Minister herself admitting that the people of the State have rejected her and her party”, the NC Gen-eral Secretary said while addressing party workers at Anziwala, Anantnag. National Conference Provincial President Nasir Aslam Wani said the PDP-BJP Govern-ment had abandoned all their promises and were solely obsessed with the spoils of political power.

“Every single promise PDP made before elec-tions and every single promise they made in the ‘Agenda of the Alliance’ has been broken within the very first year of this alliance. Recent incidents and reactions by the people of the entire State, including Anantnag have made it amply clear that PDP has been completely rejected at the grassroots level. The Chief Minis-ter’s loss from Anant-nag is inevitable and her fear is justified. National Conference will ensure our grassroots cadre is consolidated and united

in serving the interests of this State and right now the most important goal is to protect our political rights and special status from PDP”, Wani said. The convention was organized by National Conference Constitu-ency In-charge Anatnag, Iftikhar Misger and was also addressed by Party Legislators Altaf Ahmed Kaloo, Abdul Majid Larmi, Dr Bashir Ahmed Veeri, Showkat Hussain Ganai besides various party leaders, activists and office bearers of the party’s parent and youth wings.

Srinagar, May 15: Former U n i o n Minister and senior Congress l e a d e r , P r o f Saifuddin Soz has said that s e p a r a t e

or composite colonies in Kashmir “are not going to solve any of the problems of migrant Kashmiri Pandits.”

In a statement issued here today, Soz said, “I would like to suggest that such measures (setting up of colonies) are neither workable nor purposeful. The ordinary Kashmiris wish Pandit migrants back to their homes to create an

atmosphere of peace and togetherness.”

“I don’t think seasoned Pandit leaders have been consulted seriously on this issue. The likes of Anupam Kher don’t represent collec-tive conscience of the Pan-dits.”

He reminded Pandit community and Kashmir Civil Society what late P N Haksar, a Pandit and thinker, had said on Octo-ber 15, 1995. Haksar, as per Soz, had said: “I strenuously contended against the idea that a portion of territory of Kashmir be carved out as an exclusive home for the Pan-dits. Ghettos have never in human history given peace and security to its inhabit-ants.”
