,The general secretary of National Conference, Ali Muhammad Sagar, on Thursday said that during its stint in power PDP failed to protect the dignity and honor of people.
Addressing a public meet at Chitragam, Wachi in southKashmir Sagar said that the much-touchedcatchphrase of PDP ‘Goli Say Nahi Boli Say’ and ‘healing touch’ didn’tmaterialize whilst they shared power in BJP in the state.
“The mask that PDP put on fell off after they opened flood gates for BJP into the State. People have lately perceived the real face of PDP during the past four years. It was the same Mufti Syed who while addressing a public meet had assured militants to stand for them, nonetheless what followed is known to all. It was the same PDP who after joining hands with BJP closed the doors of reconciliation with militants. When PDP was told to bow down, it chose to crawl before BJP. People still remember how PDP had closed its eyes and ears to the miseries of people.
We saw how highly educated youth took to militancy; such was the disenchantment among youth that they left their studies and took to the path of violence. At that time when people were expecting her to impress upon the GoI to start a process of reconciliation, she bolted her mouth,” he said.
Sagar added, “She never let go any chance to eulogize PMModi. She had publically said that Modi Ji gave her what she even hadn’t askedfor. Mehbooba ji under the spell of power even went a step further and put PMModi on a higher pedestal. We didn’t see her show any remorse over thekillings, blinding, CASO’s, and other miseries which she cheerfully presidedover. On the contrary, she mocked the miseries of people with her ‘toffee andmilk’ comments. She had barefacedly said that the weapons of security forcesare not for mere display but action. People are aware of her politicalbankruptcy and slyness. No gimmickry and passing the blame can absolve her ofthe role she played in destroying Kashmir, in particular, the south Kashmir,which bore the brunt of her deceptive politics.”
