Withdrawing security of protected persons vindictive move: PDP

Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Friday castigated the government decision of withdrawing security of protected persons in the state, terming the move as “vindictive” in nature. 

Addressing press conference here PDP general secretary Ghulam NabI Lone Hanjura questioned the recent government decision in which security of Mirwaiz Umar Farooq and other protected persons in the state was withdrawn. 

   

He said the approach adopted by the authorities is “vindictive” in nature and that those at the helm are turning their eyes away from reality without any compunction. “There is also chaos and confusion prevalent within the system. On one side Government claims to have taken away the security of Syed Ali Geelani, Yasin Malik and Shabir Shah and on the other side, these leaders claim to have never received any security cover. The government must come clear on this,” said Hanjura.

The PDP leader also expressed concern over the war hysteria being created between the two countries post Pulwama attack and termed the decision to stop water flowing to Pak and diverting it to other states a real worrisome decision which can have far reaching consequences. 

 He also stated that unless India and Pakistan don’t initiate dialogue process, it is impossible that the situation in Kashmir will get any better and peace will return to the crises riven state.
