Srinagar: Senior Leader Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and parliamentary party incharge of North Kashmir M M War on Saturday slammed National Conference (NC) for boycotting the delimitation exercise of Assembly and Parliamentary constituencies in Jammu and Kashmir. “They have always sabotaged democratic processes,” remarked BJP Senior Leader M M War.
He said the NC’s decision is against participation in delimitation will not have any impact on the exercise. “The delimitation has to be carried out by the three-member panel. The role of Members of Parliament (MP’s) is supportive in the exercise,” he said.
“The large majority of people of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh have accepted the decision taken by the government on August 5, last year,” he said. “All the people including Muslims, Sikhs, Kashmir Pandits and others in the large numbers are welcoming the decision taken by BJP government and we all stand united behind it” he added.
M M War further said “delimitation is an important step for the democratic process. It is an important step. NC has always indulged in “Bhangra Baazi. Tomorrow, they will claim that report of the Commission is not fair”.
“There is a perception among Kashmiris that seats of Kashmir would be decreased and seats of Jammu will be increased. Are they not skipping their responsibility? They should have defended and argued properly before the Commission that there is no disparity in allocation of seats,” he said.
He said they are defeating the mandate of the people by boycotting the exercise. “It is unfortunate and undemocratic,” M M War further remarked, “Jammu & Kashmir are closely watching the exercise as there is apprehension among them that it is being done the delimitation process”.
