Reacts to remarks of Omar, Farooq on Modi as PM<\/strong><\/p>\n

Srinagar:\u00a0<\/strong>Reacting to the recent statement of chief minister Omar Abdullah and NC patron Dr Farooq Abdullah that \u2018Kashmir will separate from India if Narendra Modi becomes the prime minister, state Congress chief Saif-ud-din Soz maintained that Kashmir can never secede from India and that the accession is \u2018final and \u2018irrevocable\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cYes as far as the elevation of Modi as a Prime Minister is concerned, I want to make clear that Kashmir was not acceded to the \u2018fascist\u2019 India but to the secular one,\u201d Soz told KNS, adding that Kashmir is a Muslim majority state and its accession with India was purely done on the secular grounds.<\/p>\n

He stated further that Kashmir is India\u2019s part and other\u00a0 demands over which the discussions are going on is the \u2018quantum\u2019 of Autonomy. \u201cGeneral\u00a0Musharraf\u00a0had understood the reality of the issue and that the same is an established fact that accession is irrevocable and unquestionable.\u201d<\/p>\n

Taking jibe at Modi, Soz stated that if Modi becomes prime minster- the same will be problematic for all the political groups. \u201cIt is not possible that Modi will become the prime minster, nobody wants him to lead India, and we won\u2019t allow him for that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Soz claimed further that Muslims in India are not the minorities but the second most majority and that they must be taken seriously.\u00a0 \u201cWhat at present are we saying is that if Modi becomes prime minster, we will continue to protest against his policies, and will remain steadfast in our struggle against fascists.\u201d Pertinently, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah\u00a0Thursday<\/span>\u00a0warned that Narendra Modi\u2019s success in ongoing Lok Sabha elections would lead to disastrous consequences especially for Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n

In an interview with leading English daily The Hindu, Omar Abdullah said that: A Narendra Modi-led government could \u201cend up severing Jammu and Kashmir from the rest of the country\u201d.\u00a0He said that proposed review of Article 370 of the Indian constitution by Modi was fraught with serious significances as any attempt to repeal or abrogate 370, which provides a special status to Jammu and Kashmir within Indian union, would mean \u201cthat the constitutional bridge between Jammu and Kashmir and the Indian Union will be destroyed.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, If Modi goes ahead and fulfils his poll promises; he will end up severing Jammu and Kashmir from the rest of the country. That is what Modi will do. He has promised to revoke Article 370 from the Constitution, which means that the constitutional bridge between Jammu and Kashmir and the Indian Union will be destroyed. This basically means that the structure of Jammu and Kashmir\u2019s position in the Indian Union will be undermined\u201d, Omar told the interviewer.\u00a0Also Farooq Abdullah, had said Kashmir will not be a part of India if the Bharatiya Janata Party’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi was voted to power.<\/p>\n

Abdullah, who is also Union New and Renewable Energy Minister, said people of Kashmir wouldn’t accept a communal person. \u201cIf it happens then Kashmir will not remain a part of India. I say it publicly. Kashmiris will not accept a communal person,\u201d Abdullah had stated. He further had attacked BJP\u2019s prime ministerial stating those who vote for Modi should drown themselves in sea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
