Stating that the statement made by Chief Minister Ms Mehbooba Mufti in the State Assembly on Saturday has only furthered the “chaos” over government “plan to allot land to outsiders”, the Kashmir Economic Alliance (KEA-K), Chairperson and President Kashmir traders and manufacturers federation (KTMF), Mohammed Yasin Khan Sunday said the state government “seems” to be “executing” RSS agenda in Kashmir.
“It should clarify its stand before the situation goes out of control,” he said in a KTMF statement this evening.
Khan said Chief Minister’s statement that Sainik Colony would be constructed for state subjects contradicts the statement of government spokesperson who said no such colony would be constructed.
“On the other hand, Ms Mehbooba said transit colony would be constructed for migrant Pandits. What does a transit colony mean? Obviously our Pandit brethren won’t be asked to live in tents till the colony will be constructed, so what does the Chief Minister mean by transit?” Khan asked adding such statements were “misleading”.
“In the interest of peace and to avoid any Amarnath like agitation, it’s our fervent appeal to the government to honestly clarify its position and shun all such plans which ever exist against the interests of Kashmir,” Khan said.
He said the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has become “habitual of using confusing vocabulary to misguide people through terms like intrinsic, extrinsic and now transit” with regard to construction of “Israeli pattern” townships.
“One thing has become clear from these statements that the coalition government has pledged to execute RSS agenda of converting Kashmir into Palestine like Ghettos and this is something we won’t ever tolerate,” Khan added.
“By gagging the voices of separatists and arrest of senior separatist leader Mohammed Yasin Malik, the government was only pushing the Valley towards 2008 like situation,” he further said. “Such dictatorial ways to please RSS will only drag Kashmir to edge, which has witnessed bloodbath in the past,” Khan said adding, “onus of any reaction from people of Kashmir will lie on the government.”
