Srinagar, Dec 13 (KNS): Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) leader and former IGP Crime Raja Aijaz Ali on Thursday tendered his resignation to party president Mehbooba Mufti, saying therein that “the party leadership has failed to deliver on ground, maintain the political space and stick to the ideology for which the party was known.”
Talking to Kashmir News Service (KNS), Aijaz said, “I have tendered resignation to PDP president Mehbooba Mufti. I had joined the party because of its tall leadership, pro-people ideology and the political space but the leadership failed to deliver and didn’t care for the ideology and the political space I deserved. My workers are not satisfied with the treatment I was given by the party and when my workers are not satisfied, what can I do without them. I had no option but to quit. I will decide future course in consultation with my workers.”
Saying that the party empowered 5000 votes of Khanyar in Srinagar, Raja Aijaz said, “When five thousand votes could be empowered there was no scope for the party leadership to dis-empower 19000 votes.” (KNS)
