JAMMU: Why the war of words for a case under jurisdiction in the Apex Court of India; why the Kashmiri leaders were afraid of the PIL on Article 35A of constitution; why they were talking about un-rest in the J&K on this section, questioned senior members of the J&K Freedom Fighters Association?
In a joint statement issued here on Friday, the Chairman J&K Freedom Fighters Association, B.L Gupta, President Ved Gandotra, Vice-President Tej Ram Dogra, President Shri Ram Sena, Rajiv Mahajan, President Karanti Dal Pritam Sharma, Jagjit Singh and Gajan Singh, flayed the apprehensions of the Kashmir based leaders that the sky would fall if the Section 35A would be touched.
What more these leaders expect, asked the members adding that these leaders have already converted a heaven into a living hell with their deeds and by their expletory speeches and tried hard to provoke the Kashmiri folk on communal lines and took every initiative to break the brotherhood between Kashmiri Hindus and Muslims. The members further said that finally they succeeded in 1989 and threw Kashmiri Pandits community out of the Kashmir Province with their nefarious designs. The scrapping of Article 35A would pave a way for the common citizen of the State, for jobs, openness and chances to work fearlessly in every nook and corner of the country, the members said and asserted that the abrogation of 35A would open flood gates of prosperity, when the big companies would invest in the State and the big industrial houses would try to give job to every hand, they said. The members further said that the common Kashmiri knows the designs of these leaders but due to fear of gun they were not expressing their anguish.
