Simply cannot and will not be a member of a House that has been disempowered the way J&K assembly has been, Omar Abdullah writes in The Indian Express.
Omar Abdullah says it’s ‘malicious and false’ to link his release to what Sachin Pilot is doing. CM Bhupesh Baghel responds, saying he has only asked a question and will ‘keep asking it’.
The writ petitions filed under Article 226 notes that the leaders have been held in 'brazen violation' of the constitutional guarantee of right to liberty.
Former J&K CM Omar Abdullah landed in Delhi just days after his political advisor Tanvir Sadiq wrote an article on ‘reaching out to the people of Jammu and Kashmir’.
The conventional wisdom is that if a govt fails to improve the lot of the voters, it is punished. Kumar presided over an economic disaster for 20 years and was re-elected by a landslide.
Indian govt officials last month skipped Turkish National Day celebrations in Delhi, in a message to Ankara following its support for Islamabad, particularly during Operation Sindoor.
Bihar is blessed with a land more fertile for revolutions than any in India. Why has it fallen so far behind then? Constant obsession with politics is at the root of its destruction.
From the photo, it looks like Omar Abdhllah is becoming Mulla Omar. Remember who he is? The Afghan Taliban leader under whom Indian Airlines aircraft was hijacked to Kandahar. These leaders will be more acceptable to the public if they come out of this medieval garb of orthodoxy.
What brought about the end of 370& 35A was the ethnic cleansing and the failure of the successive state governments to bring to book the perpetrators which was nothing short of connivance. The rulers of those days have consigned themselves to the trashcan of history by paying for the sins.
The assembly was disempowered on the day when Sheikh Abdullah and many members of the Assembly were arrested in 1953. A puppet assembly was made to pass a constitution that a puppet government wanted and none knows it better than Sheikh Abdullah’s grandson. The assembly that Omar Abdullah calls most empowered was not even able to implement its autonomy resolution. Omar Abdullah himself told his voters that he was fighting the election only for local Muncipal issues and had no illusions about being asked to play a role in the solution of the Kashmir problem. Thus even a doctored constitution passed by a puppet assembly has now been abrogated. Kashmir is back to square one as a disputed territory between India which calls it its Union territory, Pakistan which demands a plebiscite but now there is a third party China which claims that it has spent $65 billion in Gilgit and so has a vested interest in it and of course since 1962 it has also claimed Ladakh and so refuses to have anything other than a LAC there. Thus we now have three parties in 2020 while there were only two in 1947. Nobody mentions the fourth party i.e the people of Jammu, Kashmir Doda and Ladakh the four territories that Frederic Drew identified in his book Jammu And Kashmir Territories .
