Says BJP pushing youth of J&K to the wall, forcing them to choose violent path

Srinagar, Dec 12 (KNS): People’s Democratic Party president, Mehbooba Mufti on Sunday hit out at the government and said that there is no surrender neither in the DNA of Kashmiris nor her.  

Talking to media persons at her Gupkar residence today, she said that by sabotaging the people and carrying out vicious atrocities on them, BJP wont get anything as they will not surrender before this oppression. 

She said that the main target has always been the youth of Kashmir and today BJP targeted the youth as it was a youth interaction. “BJP is disempowering our youth by getting them jailed, slapping them with UAPA and PSA, snatching jobs and giving local jobs to outside people,” she said

Mehbooba said that BJP doesn’t want youth to support democratic values of PDP as they only want to disempower them to the extent that they choose the path of violence. “By that it becomes easy for them to kill the youngsters of the Valley just like they did in Hyderpora,” she added. 

She said that PDP is not able to understand the reason behind this resentment of government against their party as all other parties including NC, PC, Apni Party and Congress have been allowed to carry put political activities.

She said that even the Prime Minister is also carrying out huge rallies in Uttar Pradesh, where thousands of dead bodies were thrown in the Ganga during the COVID19 emergency but still huge rallies are allowed there. “But here we cannot understand why COVID19 restrictions are only for PDP.” 

She said that she wants to ask LG Manoj Sinha that how can his administration be so brazen? “COVID19 excuse is only for PDP and not for other parties. How can the administration justify this excuse?” she questioned.

She also said that the reason behind this move was that PDP always challenges their false narratives of normalcy in Jammu and Kashmir and whosoever challenges it, is being silenced by by force.

Mehbooba said that PDP today wanted to hold a youth convention at her residence as earlier they tried to seek permission from district administration for an outside venue, but they didn’t get any response.

“Thousands of youth had come today to attend the convention but they were not allowed to do so. Not only that but they were thrashed, roughed up, their mobile phones were snatched and some of them were arrested also. Our party leader Arif Laigaroo was also arrested by the police,” she said. (KNS)
