The PDP that was born in \u00a0\u00a0South Kashmir is now accepted in Srinagar and Baramulla also. I agree that people of South Kashmir have been neglected to the hilt and Omar Sahib should address this sense of neglect or otherwise be ready for May 16 results again,\u201d beg remarked, according to KNS correspondent.<\/p>\n<p>Criticizing the role of senior National Conference leader and finance minister Abdul Rahim Rather, the former MP said that majority of the employees of Jammu and Kashmir Bank hail from Charer-e-Shareef. \u201cRather has employed most of the people from Charar-e-Shareef in JK Bank and don\u2019t the people of Anantnag deserve to be adjusted in that bank. Despite these appointments, Rather Sahib has failed in his constituency to garner support as is reflected in the recently concluded Lok Sabha elections,\u201d Beg stressed.<\/p>\n<p>He also censured Rather \u00a0for his role as the chairman of District Development Board saying that the finance minister would disallow the party MLA from speaking while as he would always allow PDP MLAs to put forth their point of view. He also remarked that Rahim Rather as the chairman of the district board failed to discharge his duties. He said such action of NC senior leaders are the major reason for the debacle of NC in\u00a0the recently held Lok Sabha polls. Pertinently, no NC flag was hoisted during the function.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you don\u2019t learn from the mistakes that you commit in the past, then your rout is inevitable. You ignored south Kashmir and its people and that is the reason that you faced this huge defeat in the recent elections. You have yourself facilitated PDP\u2019s win through your wrong policies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Beg maintained that he had at several times informed the party about the wrong policies and steps being taken by government but according to Beg, the party didn\u2019t pay any heed to his repeated suggestions. He admitted that as compared to PDP, his government did little for the people of south Kashmir that resulted in party\u2019s erosion from the region.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Omar will have to address sense of neglect, or face drubbing in Assembly Srinagar:\u00a0Launching\u00a0a\u00a0scathing\u00a0attack against the policies of his own party\u00a0National Conference, senior NC leader and a former Member Parliament from South Kashmir Dr Mehboob Beigon Monday\u00a0accused finance minister Abdul Rahim Rather for economic disparity and backdoor appointment in Jammu and Kashmir Bank.
