ISI conspired to open Kartarpur corridor for destablising Punjab: Amarinder Singh

/0 Comments/in , , , , , , , , , , /by

Opening of Kartarpur Corridor is clearly a game plan of the ISI and a bigger conspiracy seems to have been hatched by Pakistan Army against India: Captain Amarinder Singh

The CM said Imran Khan was undoubtedly making efforts to bring peace, tranquility, and harmony with India, but at the same time, he should also prevail upon the top brass of Pakistani Army to ensure that killings of our soldiers at borders are stopped immediately.

Citing the fact that Pakistan Army General Qamar Javed Bajwa had broken the news of opening the Kartarpur Corridor to Navjot Singh Sidhu even before Imran Khan was sworn in as their Prime Minister, Punjab Chief Minister (CM) Amarinder Singh has dubbed the whole affair as a bigger conspiracy hatched by the Pak Army.

The opening of the Kartarpur Corridor is clearly a game plan of the ISI, said the CM in an interview to a TV channel, adding that a bigger conspiracy seems to have been hatched by Pakistan Army against India.

He said that Pakistan was attempting to revive militancy in Punjab and thus everyone should be wary of all of its overtures, no matter how grand they appear to be.

Amarinder Singh said the demand for opening of the Kartarpur Sahib corridor was pending since partition as several holy Sikh shrines (Sri Nankana Sahib, Sri Panja Sahib, Dera Sahib, and Kartarpur Sahib) had been left in Pakistan.

Even former PMs Indira Gandhi and Dr Manmohan Singh had taken up the issue of opening the Kartarpur Corridor with Pakistan. He said he himself had raised this issue with his Pakistan Punjab counterpart Parvez Elahi and with the then President, Parvez Musharraf during his previous tenure as the chief minister.

The CM said Imran Khan was undoubtedly making efforts to bring peace, tranquility, and harmony with India, but at the same time, he should also prevail upon the top brass of Pakistani Army to ensure that killings of our soldiers at borders are stopped immediately.

Pakistan’s history is the witness that if any PM wants to stay in power, he has to toe the line of the Army, said the CM, citing the example of Nawaz Sharif’s agreement with the Pakistani Army in Dubai, which led to his continuation as PM.

On the issue of Navjot Sidhu’s visit to Pakistan for the ground-breaking ceremony, Amarinder said Sidhu went there due to his friendship with Imran Khan, adding that this was not unreasonable.

He said that he himself has many friends there, including the former Pakistan Punjab CM Parvez Elahi.

Describing Sidhu as a “likeable person,” the CM said he and Sidhu were not at loggerheads as reported by the media and he had absolutely no problems with Sidhu while running the government. Amarinder said that Sidhu always spoke in a forthright manner and his only problem was that “sometimes he shoots before he thinks.”

Responding to another question regarding Sidhu’s remarks that Rahul Gandhi was his Captain, the CM said that this was hardly an issue to be raised as Sidhu had always treated him (Captain) as a fatherly figure.

Mehbooba pitches for hill councils for Pir Panjal, Chenab

/0 Comments/in , , , , , , , , /by

PDP president and former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Mehbooba Mufti addresses a press conference in Srinagar, on Dec 7, 2018.

Mehbooba’s demand has triggered sharp reactions and is being seen as an attempt to divide the Jammu region.

Having threatened disciplinary action against three prominent activists of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) about 15 years ago when they demanded divisional status for the Muslim dominated areas along the river Chenab, in a U-turn now, the PDP president Mehbooba Mufti has herself pitched for the demand in a bid to revive her party’s political base in these areas.

Mehbooba’s demand has come at a time when Governor Satyapal Malik was reportedly considering favourably the demand of divisional status for the Ladakh region that remains landlocked during the winters when the approach roads to the cold desert area get disconnected for nearly five months from Srinagar and Himachal Pradesh due to heavy snow.

The twin districts of Leh and Kargil in the Ladakh region are presently attached with the Kashmir division and the demand for a separate division for the area has been coming up for the past several years.

Mehbooba, who did not allow her partymen to raise the demand when the PDP was twice in power, has threatened that the PDP would launch an agitation if the “Pir-Panchal region”, consisting of Rajouri and Poonch districts and the “Chenab Valley region” consisting of the districts of Doda, Kishtwar and Ramban districts, were not delinked from Jammu and granted status of separate division.

It is worth mentioning that sometime around 2003 when her father Mufti Sayeed was chief minister and Mehbooba was heading the PDP, she had issued a disciplinary notice to her party leaders, Mohammad Sharif Tariq, Chowdhary Zulfikar, and Nisar Ahmad Khan for raising the demand for divisional status for these areas.

Mehbooba’s demand has triggered sharp reactions and is being seen as an attempt to divide the Jammu region.

The state spokesman of BJP, Brigadier Anil Gupta (Retired), claimed that the demand of Mehbooba exhibits her “communal and opportunistic” mindset. She was pursuing her hidden agenda of dividing the Hindus and Muslims of the Jammu region, he alleged.

Gupta said that by asking the National Conference and other Kashmir-centric parties to endorse her demand, Mehbooba has exposed the ambition of Kashmiri leadership to continue their domination over the Jammu and Ladakh regions.

Captain Anil Gaur (Retired), who had recently quit from the PDP for the party’s alleged anti-Jammu ideology, described Mehbooba’s demand as a “ploy” to divide the Jammu division. “Why did she not implement her plans when she herself was chief minister of the state,” he asked. She was probably trying to sabotage Ladakh’s demand for divisional status, he alleged.

These districts have always been part of the Jammu division and the Kashmir-centric political parties have been trying to create a wedge by calling these as “Chenab Valley” and “Pir-Panchal Range”, said Subhash Sharma, a political commentator.
