| Baig says time for elected kings is over | | Srinagar, April 29 (Scoop News) – Senior leader and former deputy Chief Minister Muzaffar Hussain Baig said the NC has cheated all sections of the population, every area and every region of the state. He said Ganderbal was the worst victim of the NC’s political exploitation. He said the party cannot identify a single significant achievement in Ganderbal district ever since 1975 when Sheikh Sahib first secured the mandate of people from there.
Addressing a public meeting at Ganderbal today Baig said NC was neck deep in corruption and in order to escape public scrutiny it is trying to paint its political opponents also with the same brush. Questioning the source of income of the Abdullah family, Baig said no member of its three generations had held a regular job or conducted a known business. How is it that the family is sitting on property worth crores in the state and outside?
Baig said the NC has historically been dividing people on one pretext or the other. He said they tried to create a rural - urban divide in Kashmir and tried to continue their exploitation of the residents of Srinagar city. But, the only people who have prospered in Srinagar and created assets worth hundreds of crores are the NC politicians and their agents. He said the most people in city are now realizing that NC is deliberately preventing them from exercising right to vote for its own survival.
Baig said Qazi Mohammed Afzal had with the support of the people of Ganderbal created history and buried the impression of invincibility of Sheikh Family. He said this had set new rules for democracy in the state and given a new meaning to people’s power which he said could change the destiny of the state if it was used wisely. “The time of elected kings as NC leaders would consider themselves has passed and people know that politicians are public servants who attain office only with their vote” he said.
District president and former minister Qazi Mohammed Afzal highlighted the achievements during the brief period of PDP rule in which besides some major projects, establishment of colleges, mini secretariat , major water supply schemes , bridges and other many menial projects.
