Srinagar: National Conference (NC) leader and Lok Sabha Member Ruhullah Mehdi has said that the Omar Abdullah-led government in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir has \u201cfailed on the political front\u201d as it nears completion of one year in office.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, talking to reporters in Srinagar, Ruhullah said that the government, which assumed office in October last year, has shown no political intent to address the core concerns of the people. \u201cThe government is about to complete a year in office. Whatever was needed to be done on the political front has not happened. There was a need to show intent, but I personally feel that has not been shown till now,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n
He said the administration must reconnect with the public and work to earn their trust. \u201cIf people are satisfied, I am satisfied. If people ask questions, those should be heard seriously. They should ponder where the lacunae are,\u201d Ruhullah said.<\/p>\n
On the issue of Jammu and Kashmir\u2019s statehood, Ruhullah strongly criticised the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), saying it had no intention of restoring the rights \u201csnatched from the people\u201d after the revocation of Article 370 in August 2019. \u201cThey want people to remain disempowered. They want to make them more disempowered,\u201d he said, adding that the BJP\u2019s actions continue to undermine the democratic and constitutional rights of the people of Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n
Ruhullah also urged the government and the Assembly Speaker to revoke the Public Safety Act (PSA) imposed on Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) MLA Meraj Malik, who was detained on September 8 in Doda district.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
