Says parallel assembly held to raise public voices on govt promises
Srinagar, Nov 08: Leader of Opposition and senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader, Sunil Sharma on Friday said that the chief minister Omar Abdullah is true in his words as they wanted to only show off through the resolution passed in the legislative assembly while the facts is that his generations wouldn’t be able to restore the Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir.
Sharma, who spoke to the news agency Kashmir News Observer, after the parallel assembly by BJP legislators in the lawns of J&K Legislative Assembly was adjourned for half an hour, stated that they ran a parallel assembly in a protest as their legislators were marshalled out while they tried to speak on behalf of the people and against the resolution passed on Wednesday.
“It is very unfortunate as for the first time a Speaker is working as the member of any particular party,” he said, adding that the party (NC) after killing civilians here has now been demanding the restoration of Article 370 through a resolution, framed by the Speaker itself.
“We had to raise the issues of the public and ask the government to fulfill the promises done with the people. Therefore, a parallel assembly was run here to raise these issues,” he said.
Furthermore, the LoP said that the chief minister has mentioned that they had to show the world through the resolution, which is true as he has only shown it and knows that his generations would not be able to restore Article 370. “The civil secretariat that had two flags at its top is now having only one flag,” he added and stated Omar has been teaching his two sons how to mislead and befool the people of Jammu and Kashmir—(KNO)
