“They Invited BJP, We Lost Special Status & a State”
Srinagar, July 28: Jammu and Kashmir National Conference General Secretary Haji Ali Muhammad Sagar accused the PDP of betraying the people of Jammu and Kashmir by enabling the BJP’s entry into the region, resulting in a loss of dignity, democracy and constitutional protections.
Addressing party leaders, workers, and delegations from Tral, Budgam, Ganderbal, Kupwara, Handwara, and Pulwama, Sagar claimed that the PDP and BJP had entered a covert pact well before the 2014 elections — a conspiracy, he alleged, that set the stage for the systematic dismantling of Jammu and Kashmir’s special status and political autonomy.
“The people of Jammu and Kashmir once lived with peace and dignity,” Sagar declared. “But since 2015, they have been thrown into an era of pain and suppression. Those who once shouted slogans of peace and dignity have themselves presided over its funeral.”
He directly blamed the PDP for inviting the BJP into power, which, he said, culminated in the bifurcation of the state, suppression of press and religious freedoms, and the replacement of a democratic structure with a bureaucratic regime.
Reaffirming National Conference’s unwavering resolve, Sagar said the party has always stood with the people and will continue its relentless struggle for the restoration of J&K’s democratic and constitutional rights.
Senior leaders present at the gathering included Choudhry Muhammad Ramzan, South Zone President Ghulam Mohiuddin Mir, State Spokesperson Imran Nabi Dar, Minority Cell Convener Jagdish Singh Azad, Provincial Youth President Mushtaq Mir, Provincial Secretary Sheikh Ovase, and various block presidents.
