Sajad Lone Says He Had No Delusion About J&K All Parties Meeting With Prime Minister

Calling All Parties Meeting convened by the Prime Minister with J&K leaders on June 24 in바카라 웹사이트New Delhi a social and political interaction and an exchange of ideas, Peoples Conference chairman Sajad Lone바카라 웹사이트today바카라 웹사이트said he had no delusions about the meeting. “What happened there was social interaction, political interaction and an exchange of ideas and I personally didn’t expect anything from the meeting. I don’t think I had a feeling I will come out from there (the meeting) with something,” Lone said addressing a press conference in Srinagar.

Asked about the recent statement of Peoples Alliance for Gupkar Declaration that showed disappointment over the바카라 웹사이트June 24바카라 웹사이트meeting with the Prime Minister, Lone said he doesn’t hold it against the PAGD as they expected something and they believe it is not unfolding. “I had a feeling its scope will be limited. I just hope they follow it up after a month or two or three or four. Need of the hour is there shouldn’t be any communication gap (between the centre and J&K leaders). It is very important that there should be no communication gap and engagement goes on.”바카라 웹사이트

The PAGD on Tuesday held its first convention with functionaries and workers of its constituent parties, which passed a resolution seeking restoration of Jammu and Kashmir라이브 바카라 constitutional position that existed on바카라 웹사이트August 4, 2019. The meeting also expressed disappointment with바카라 웹사이트June 24바카라 웹사이트meeting as the centre, according to them, didn’t announce any confidence-building measure since then.

바카라 웹사이트“One thing I want to say Kashmiri society, Kashmir polity, our mainstream (parties), we are on the back foot but history is the witness of it that no community remains on the back foot forever. Our time will come and it will come soon,” he said.

He said political leadership of J&K has a challenge that it cannot afford to act in a manner that causes hardships to people. He said the biggest skill of leadership is to save youths and save a community they represent. He said leadership must show patience as it is a long game. “Nothing started on바카라 웹사이트August 5바카라 웹사이트and nothing ended on바카라 웹사이트August 5. Things will go on and politics will go on,” he said. He said there is anger among people against political parties, against the revocation of Article 370 and this simmering anger is dangerous. He said at the same time it is the responsibility of the leadership to save people.

On바카라 웹사이트August 5, 2019, amid communication blockade, military siege, and the arrest of thousands of people including three former chief ministers, the BJP government revoked Article 370. The communication blackout continued for a long time.

Asked how he expects people who are leaving other parties especially바카라 웹사이트the바카라 웹사이트Peoples’ Democratic Party and joining the Peoples Conference after August 5, 2019, will be loyal to him as they weren’t loyal to others, Lone said judgments shouldn’t be passed on loyalty and disloyalty. “There are no holy cows in Kashmir. Neither from the political side nor from the media side. A journalist working with one news channel바카라 웹사이트today바카라 웹사이트joins another바카라 웹사이트tomorrow바카라 웹사이트and it doesn’t make him debauch.”

“Why people are asking questions about political leaders joining the Peoples' Conference? This question wasn’t asked by anyone when political leaders were leaving Peoples Conference in 2000, 2001. Some parties came into existence after political leaders left the Peoples Conference. Now that when leaders are joining Peoples Conference, you are asking why they are joining,” Lone said. He claimed the Peoples Conference was about to replace National Conference in 1983 but different forces didn’t allow it to happen. “Now when the situation has changed and political leaders have started joining it as they have been earlier part of the Peoples Conference, you have started asking why they are joining the Peoples Conference.” “We will do what it takes to usher in a new era (in J&K),”바카라 웹사이트he added.
