Ram Madhav acting as de facto CM of J&K, says Harsh

Jammu and Kashmir National Panthers Party (JKNPP) chairman on Monday alleged  that central govt was trying to rule the state through proxy and had deputed Ram Madhav for the purpose who was blatantly interfering in the affairs of the state.

Addressing public meetings in Bari-Brahmana and Akalpur , Harsh said  with uncertainty looming large over the political landscape of J&K, the BJP was reported to be luring MLAs of various political parties in a bid to capture power once again by hook or crook.

   

He said that several media reports and loud public whispers suggested that BJP was approaching legislators of other political parties with lucrative offers so as to muster support for re-formation of the government in the state and to occupy the seats of power yet again. 

To achieve its foul design, it had managed to keep the assembly in the state in suspended animation, alleged Harsh. 

He further said Ram Madhav not only poked his nose in the internal functioning of the state during BJP-PDP rule but had managed to penetrate into the present administrative set up and was frequently seen holding meetings with the Governor and other bureaucrats. A general impression therefore was being conveyed to the public that Ram Madhav was acting as de facto chief minister of state with MLAs also allowed to exercise their normal functions despite the assembly having been suspended in the state.

Asserting that governor rule had no place for political adventurism and incursions, Singh said that undue interference of BJP at this juncture, under the tutelage of Ram Madhav in the governance of state, was totally unwarranted and unconstitutional. He called upon the governor to instruct the administration to act in the best interests of the state without bowing to the blackmail of BJP which had lost the mandate to interfere in the policy matters of the state.

Likewise PDP was also trying to use the occasion to woes Congress and independents to form another bizarre coalition in the state, said Harsh. 

Appealing the governor to ensure immediate dissolution of the assembly, Singh said that the mandate of constitution must prevail in view of no political party being in a position to form the government in the state. Any delay is fraught with dangerous portends with increased attempts of horse trading given the Machiavellian skills of the BJP, said Harsh.

Shanker Singh Chib, Parshotam Parihar, Nirmal Kishore, Partap Singh, Aditya Hans, Anil Rakwal, Varinder Singh, Romesh Singh, Amandeep Singh, Pawandeep Singh also spoke on the occasion.
