JAMMU: Pannun Kashmir (PK) condemned President National Conference, Dr Farooq Abdullah for threatening 2008 type agitation on the repealing of Article 35A of the Indian Constitution.
Vijay Bhat, President Panun Kashmir, while addressing a meeting here on Tuesday, condemned Dr Abdullah for such provocative and misleading remarks. He reminded Farooq that he is not the sole custodian of Indian Constitution and there 545 Lok Sabha members who are there to defend it and it is the Indian Parliament which has every constitutional and legal right to amend or repeal any part of Constitution. The only right Farooq as MP has to oppose it but not to hold entire Indian Parliament to ransom, said Vijay Bhat.
Convenor Ravinder Jalali warned former CM that such anti-national and pro-separatist move will not help him in rebuilding his ground which has been washed away with the passage of time. By threatening repetition of 2008 like agitation he has only made the wounds of Jammuites a fresh as the 2008 agitation was anti-India, anti-Hindu and anti-Jammu, he added.
Panun Kashmir cautioned Dr Abdullah not to hold entire J and K to ransom and mislead the nation. He reminded Abdullah that even if Article 35A is removed there would be enough people to hold the Tri-colour. There is no dearth of nationalists and patriots and they don’t bargain as you people are doing it, he added.
