\u20181987 rigging thrust gun on Kashmiris\u2019<\/strong><\/i><\/h2>\n

Srinagar, Dec 03:<\/strong><\/i> Peoples Conference (PC) on Monday said that NC President Farooq Abdullah\u2019s hands are drenched with the blood of thousands of innocent Kashmiris \u2013 who had lost their lives due to NC\u2019s opportunistic politics and the party\u2019s insatiable thirst for power at any cost. <\/i>
\nIn a statement issued , a spokesman of J&K Peoples Conference said that Farooq Abdullah should introspect as to how the costs of his treachery, rank opportunism and ideological ambiguity have been borne by the people of Kashmir over the past many decades. \u201cWhile Farooq Abdullah\u2019s utterings can\u2019t be taken seriously as he has an uncanny ability to contradict himself with every passing fortnight, it is pertinent to put the facts on record. The election of 1987, which was rigged to impose Farooq Abdullah on the people of Kashmir, was a collective murder that has spread over three bloody decades and cost us nearly one lakh innocent lives till now. Farooq Abdullah has been allowed to walk away from murder. Every single Kashmiri will testify as to how Farooq Abdullah\u2019s thirst to become Chief Minister threw the State into the throes of turmoil and suffering. He walked over thousands of dead bodies to again assume power in 1996. That was the second mass murder he committed. There is still no closure to the 1987 rigging. The violence which started after the rigging is yet to end,\u201d the spokesman added.<\/i>
\n\u201cFarooq Abdullah might not believe us but he must ask his newfound friend \u2013 the PDP about NC\u2019s role in pushing Kashmir\u2019s youth towards militancy. As PDP has repeatedly reminded Farooq Abdullah in the recent past (Including statements from Mehbooba Mufti) \u2013 it was he who was responsible for creating the Syed Salahuddins of Kashmir. His newfound allies have \u2013 on numerous occasions \u2013 said this on the floor of the assembly and this is not far from the truth\u201d, the spokesman said. \u201cMaybe it is time for the PDP also to spell out whether they still believe that 1987 rigged elections were one of the main causes of drift towards violence, which is yet to end.\u201d<\/i>
\nThe spokesman said that many attempts were made prior to 1987 to bring in the gun into Kashmir but failed. \u201c1987 rigging scripted the conduciveness and the receptiveness for gun in Kashmir. And now they have the audacity to accuse those who were victims of rigging,\u201d the spokesman said, adding that the rigging of 1987 was done to protect the dynastic rule of the Abdullahs at an unimaginable cost of pushing a peaceful heaven like Kashmir into the vortex of violence and the present show of togetherness exhibited by NC and PDP is yet again an attempt to protect the old and the new dynasty.<\/i>
\nThe spokesman said that Farooq Abdullah\u2019s promises on defending Article 370 in an alliance with the PDP and the Congress were ridiculous. \u201cNC has been an ever-ready accomplice in the erosion of the State\u2019s special status. They have overtly and covertly facilitated every machination and intrigue hatched against the State. The same Congress that he wanted to ally with recently and has allied with on numerous occasions in the past \u2013 has written and enacted every single script of erosion of article 370 and disempowerment in the State. As for the PDP — the same NC told us that PDP was an \u2018RSS Trojan Horse\u2019 till yesterday and that the PDP was recruited to weaken the State from within. One wonders how things suddenly changed for Farooq Abdullah and how he expects the people to believe that his party\u2019s desperation against an alternative political force is somehow purportedly a valiant fight for the State\u2019s special status?\u201d, the spokesman said.<\/i><\/p>\n

The spokesman said NC and PDP are good separatists when out of power and corrupt mainstreamers when in power. \u201cAs far as this rhetoric about restoration of Autonomy is concerned \u2013 NC was never serious about Autonomy and remembers Autonomy in seasonal circles when it is out of power. While in power the party becomes an absolute unionist in its outlook as humanly possible. NC has been a co-architect in the erosion of Article 370. As demanded by Omar Abdullah in the past \u2013 let there be white paper on the turmoil in Kashmir. Let there be a Truth and Reconciliation Commission and let us fix responsibility for the pain and suffering our people have endured. Let us tell the people when Article 370 was eroded and who was responsible\u201d, the spokesman said.<\/i>
\nThe spokesman said Farooq Abdullah\u2019s ridiculous statement that he will \u2018expose\u2019 more of our \u2018deeds\u2019 at the appropriate time indicates his desperation and anxiety at the rise of Peoples Conference. <\/i>
\n\u201cWe haven\u2019t even disclosed 2% of his misdeeds, brazen cases of corruption, complicity in injustices against Kashmir and atrocities against its people. The day we decide to do so would be a very ominous day for National Conference and its Twitter Vice President as well \u2013 who is stoically lording over estates and wealth of thousands of crores earned on the graves of our people\u201d.<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
